Unlimited Games. How should Red play 64?


24/14 gives Red a very disconnected position.

White has an advanced anchor and so Red should try to obtain his own high anchor.


His three-point home board and the principle of duplication enable him to play the more dynamic 13/7, 24/20. 24/14 is only a small error. However, the apparently safe 8/2, 6/2 is a blunder. It does nothing to address the demands of the position and gives White the freedom of the board.
