Golden point, best 4 prime, better board, 7 pips, enemy on the bar and the roll and it is not a double yet! |

Even if the opponent has moved 6 pips to the midpoint, now it is already a double/take because of the lack of a bridge. With a bridge or even with a mediocre anchor on our 10 point he could clear the midpoint first and stay back with the anchor to try to help the prisoner. Now there is nobody to help him. He must act on his own. |

The opponent has moved BACK 2 pips to the 8 point. But it is MORE no double because of the better bridge. 8 is better than 9. In some positions the bar point is an ideal bridge. |

Golden point, best 4 prime, better board, 3 pips, enemy on the bar and the roll. The tipping point! We could double in short matches or generally behind in the score. Here he has no bridge AND the cover of his own outfield is reduced. The "clear front point first" tactics does not give much. The help to the prisoner of the 11 point by the 11 point is miniscule. |

Neither foul nor fish! His second point is no more a direct bridge, but it helps somewhat the back checker and covers his own outfield most efficiently! Thus the "one guards two" tactics apply. After he clears the midpoint first, the 10 point will remain to help the prisoner, and to guard against our central point and our golden anchor. In spite of his communication problems, in a money game it is still not a double... |
