Match Play. 0-2 to 7. How should Red play 32?


What is surprising about this position is XG’s rollout. Its top play is 11/9, 6/3. It is the first time I have ever seen it slot against two checkers on the bar, except in a bear-off position. Is it correct? I really don’t know.


I, like many others, would have played 8/5, 6/4 without much thought. I may have learnt something here. Alternatively, I may have found and XG bug. Time will tell!
