Match Play. Red leads 3-1 to 13. How should Red play 42?


This is no time for the weak bar/23, 5/1.

 

Gammons count double so go for it. Bar/21, 4/2* Wins 14% more games and 14% more gammons. One fan by White and he is massive trouble. From this position he loses nearly 5% backgammons after bar/21, 4/2*.

 

Bar/23, 5/1 is a nine times blunder. Enough said!
