What are the market losers? And is the market lost already. 8 checkers off with two closed out on the bar is a clear pass IIRC, but what about two on the ace? Don't recall.

Since I'm not sure about the take decision, I'll ship it, although next roll I'll have a similar decision unless she rolls boxes, so it might be a small hold due to how static the position is.

A 70 pip race lead is remarkably resiliant, so despite the lack of board and it being an ace point game I'll imagine that white can take. Won't be surprised if I'm way wrong about this. R/T.
