White is eXtremeGammon

Blue is Timothy ChowXGID=bbFBCC--------A---bbbc-b--:3:-1:1:42:0:0:0:7:10 Blue to play 42 When Blue plays N = Near (14/10 5/3), and leaves a checker on the 10pt, there are 5 rolls (31 21 11) that fail to safety his straggler on the following turn. As well, 44 leaves an inside blot.
If Blue plays D = Down (14/8) instead, then 44 leaves a blot on his next turn, while 33 opens a gap. All rolls bring home the straggler.
I’ll try D (Down).
