Cube action

I was captain and Dave doubled. I dropped and John and Marc took. That is a pretty significant blunder. One checker on the bar against a two point board with builders in position and a blot in the outfield is just too much. It is not som much, that White wins that many games, but too many of them are gammons.

Checker play

One of the worst rolls, but well played.

Checker play

This is the best possible roll and Green is still an underdog. The move is good, even though it seems unimaginative. It is more important to play it save with White's strong board.
