Match Play. 0-0 to 7. Should Red double? If doubled, should White take?


As we have often seen before prime verus prime positions tend to be doubles and takes. This one is no exception. The volatility means Red should double and not doubling is very nearly a blunder.

 

White’s take is trivial and passing would be a quintiuple blunder. Note that double twos cracks Red’s prime immediately.
