2023 - Position 60

XGID=-Ba-CbBDB----B-----bbbcba-:1:-1:1:63:4:4:0:5:10

Match play. Double Match Point. How should Yellow play 63?

If the spare checker on White’s 3-pt was on his ace-point then Yellow should leave nothing and play 7/4, 7/1.

That slight weakness in White’s position allows Yellow to play 13/4 although 7/4, 7/1 would not be an error. There is a fine balance in such positions between risk and reward.
