In Response To: Daily Quiz 4/4/11 (Stick)

1) Double/Take (race & position advantage, but if Black hits he will probably win)
2) 16/13 15/11 (minimize shots without destroying home board, that can be useful if the game lasts longer)
3) Too Good To Redouble/Drop (AtS the best strategy is to win a doubled gammon; take point = 26% so it's probably already too bad for Black to take, but I'm not sure; I think this is a case where Woolsey's Law doesn't apply)
4) Double/Drop (a 4-5 back game can't work; I have already said many times that I can't play back games)
5) Double/Drop (1s hit, other rolls bring 2 checkers down to complete the prime; Black is hopeless without big jokers)
