White is Thomas1959 score: 3 pip: 110 5 point match Crawford pip: 103 score: 4 Blue is bukalemune XGID=--aC-CE-C-a--a-a-a-cbb-c-A:0:0:1:61:4:3:1:5:10 Blue to play 61 I like this problem, not so much because it is difficult, but rather because it is so clearcut. For an intermediate like me, it starkly emphasizes the vagaries of match play. Voluntarily walking into a triple direct shot, and often settling for 50/50 in the next game, beats risking the gammon, and the match, in this one. BTW: it is good to see you using stronger rollout settings now. Mike
