Ask Danny

"A Close One"
| Dear Danny: I faced this very nasty problem over the board last week at my local club: 7 point match tied at 5 to 5. Should Black double? Then Black to play 5-2. (Position shown in the July/August Point) I might as well have tossed a coin on each decision (I didn’t double and then played 13/11, 13/8). What would you do? Would the doubling and play decisions be easier at different scores? For example Black leading 5–3 to 7 or Black trailing 3–5 to 7? And if so, why?—Brain Overload |
