In Response To: Answers: Chow's Checkerplay Challenge (Timothy Chow)

Thanks for a great quiz (and nice variants in the answers) ! Like Casper, I think 5 problems would be a better format. When I tried to answer before the deadline, I had the time to answer only 5 of them. Looking forward to the next CHCHCH.

As for the 23/13 play, have you considered that the checker on the 13 puts a lot more pressure on the opponent when he rolls a six, compared to the variant where the checker can play only to the 14 ?
