Player count: Open (25), Intermediate (20), Beginner (9)

15-point Semifinals to be played Saturday: Ed O'Laughlin vs. Joe Russell Werner Schmucki (Austria) vs. Carol Joy Cole

Carol won a DMP thriller vs. Bob Glass this evening to reach the semifinals. This is the key position with Carol (O) on shake, trailing 8-9 to 13 and holding a 2-cube. Would you recube as O?

Carol Joy Cole (8) +24-23-22-21-20-19-+---+18-17-16-15-14-13-+ | O X O O O | | O O X |[2] | O X O O O | | O X | | X | | | | | | | | | | X | | X X O X | | X | | O X X O X | | X X O | +-1--2--3--4--5--6-+---+-7--8--9-10-11-12-+ Bob Glass (9)

Carol recubed and Bob took. Those are the right actions. Carol brought this game home, then lost a gammon to set up DMP. Carol went on to win the match in a down-to-the-wire bearoff.
