Match Play. Double Match Point. How should Red play 52?
Most of you who commented got this right. The best play is 14/9, 13/11, relying on a well-timed back game.
Red can also try to win by going forward by choosing 14/9, 7/5*. Both game plans are viable.
However, Red must retain both rear anchors. 22/17*, 7/5* would be far too ambitious and is worse than a triple blunder.
