White is XG Roller++

pip: 157
15 point match
pip: 133

Blue is BGO Readers

Blue on roll, cube action?

  • We can hit with any 1 or 2, plus 43 61 63 and 33.
  • We can cover the 1pt with any 6, 7 or 12.
  • We have 10 checkers in the zone, albeit, with only 2 or 3 builders.
  • We lead in the race by 24 pips.
  • Our rear checkers are split.
  • White has one checker on the bar, and 2 other blots.

The problem with a double here is that White might anchor on our 5pt on his very next roll. Then we would be in a scramble, with 5 or 6 checkers tied up holding points below his anchor.

In unlimited games, I’ll guess this is a small double, and an easy take. At this score, I am less sure.

No double
