This is the last recorded scene from the drama: Interestingly it seems best to come out with all of the back guys (after making the 5-point). White can jump the Green checkers with a 10 or higher (6 rolls). He will have to leave double shot with any 5 or 6, that do not jump and double 4s (15 numbers). He can stay back with 15 other rolls. Green will have a double indirect, but it is hard to assess the chances. As I find it very difficult to judge the various plays in this position at the table. Marc tried 23/5, 12/6, which looks reasonable to me, but is inferior. The final stage of this memorable game unfolded after Dave was able to bear in most of his checkers and finally dlearing 3 checkers on his 2-point with a double 2, winning a backgammon and 95 points (16*3*2 - 1, which he had dropped early on). I do not think one person should have that much luck (unless it is me). |
