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


This position is relatively non-volatile and it is hard to find a market-losing sequence. It is hard to imagine anybody dropping this as White. Note also that Red has two checkers out of play on his ace-point.


On the other side of the board White would rather have his 3-pt than his 2-pt but those checkers can still be part of a prime.


Doubling is premature and an error. Red should just roll the dice.
