Match Play. 1-1 to 5. Should Red redouble? If redoubled, should White take?


For money this would be no redouble and take. White has six checkers off and so the gap on the 1-pt is not a major influencing factor.


At this score White can drop and retain 33% match winning chances. Of course, he is nowhere near that from this position, particularly as the cube is dead.


Mandatory double, quadruple blunder to take!!!
