Unlimited Games. How should Red play 61?


To lift, or not to lift, that is the question?


It is close but lifting with 21/15, 4/3 is the correct move. Being hit on the 4-pt is just too expensive for Red. 13/6 wins 5.5% more gammons but loses 4% more games and so the maths clearly dictates that lifting is correct.


13/6 is quite a big error but still the second-best play. Anything else is a blunder.
