A pretty board and an ugly stack

In Response To: A pretty board and an ugly stack (Timothy Chow)

Blue is 30 pips behind with four checkers back. That seems to add up to a pretty clear take for white.

Can blue double? What are the market losers? If blue can hit on the four (13 shakes) and white fails to anchor (25 shakes) it looks like a pass for white. That's about 25%, and maybe there are others such as 61-dance.

I'm going to say hold, despite the market losers. I'll be happy if that happens and I cash.
