Match Play. Blue trails 4-5 to 7? How should Blue play 55?


Because of White’s five-point home board there are two valid approaches here:


The safer 20/5, 6/1 or the more aggressive 20/15, 12/2*, 6/1, going for the gammon and match. The former wins more games but the latter wins more gammons. The more aggressive play is correct by a whisker.
