Unlimited Games. Should Red double? If doubled, should White take?


White’s position is precarious, but no checkers are out of play. Meanwhile those dead checkers on Red’s ace-point are significant. They reduce his flexibility. If White can quickly roll a six he should be OK.


The upshot of all this is that Red has a double but it is close. White has a trivial take and dropping would be worse than a double blunder.
