2024 - Position 139


XGID=-BbBBBC-b---bD--bc-d------:0:0:1:43:5:1:0:7:10

 

Match Play. Red leads 5-1 to 7. How should Red play 43?

This is no time for a safe play. The position cries out for a bold play and that play is 13/10, 13/9. If White chooses to hit, he will do so at his peril.

 

A return hit from Red might give him the undoubled gammon that would suit him perfectly. He seemingly safe 13/6 is a huge blunder.
