Community Comments
Joseph Russell:
“I would pass. White is buried in the race and very vulnerable to jokers and will likely need a hit to survive and even that may not suffice. Also , white has a one point board, has not made a point anywhere, has a thin mid, and stacks on the 6 and 8.”
Edward Onny:
“Not having an inner point made, beside the six point, I have learned, is a sign to consider a pass.”
Jim Pokela:
“Black has 8 checkers in the zone. Not enough for a blitz. Easy take.
Few market losers. I wait one turn to look at the double”
