BACKGAMMON
IN  CAMDEN




In the position below, it is a match to 9, and the score is 0-0. Black is “blitzing” white and has gotten very lucky…after hitting two checkers, white has danced with both checkers and is stuck on the bar.



The question is, what is the proper cube action now with black on roll?

a) black should double and white should take

b) black should double and white should drop

c) black should not double because he is “too good” and wins too many gammons

Tie breaker question:

What percent of the time will white win this game from this position?
