-F-66D-63H-F-11D-426-63r-21K-53-11A.-21-54J-52


Prime-versus-prime positions are among the most difficult to play. This position (reached by the perfectly played sequence in the caption above) is no exception.

For Blue, how do you play 52 ...

........(1) if the cube is in the center (as shown)?

........(2) if Blue owns the cube?

........(3) if White owns the cube?

[Extra credit]

........(4) at DMP, gammon save, and/or gammon go?


Good luck!
