Match Play. Red leads 8-0 to 11. How should Red play 65?


I thought a few of you might go for bar/20, 24/18* because of the gammons and the chance to get to 10-0 (Crawford).

 

However, everybody correctly chose bar/20, 13/7, locking in four checkers behind a four-point prime. Bar/20, 24/18* is a blunder because it is the wrong game plan.
