Annotation
Alex Zamanian: Playing B/20 22/20, pretty much guarantees Red a nice advantage, whereas B/18* tries for more. If Red gets hit back on the 18 point, he'll have about an even game, but if he gets missed, he's made some forward progress. I prefer B/18*.

Annotation
Alex Zamanian: I prefer 13/9 6/3 which unstacks the 6 point and doesn't strip the midpoint. An upside to playing 13/9 13/10 is that it duplicates 5s. Also, White has to give up his anchor to hit. Still, I don't think these arguments compensate for the pretty distribution after 13/9 6/3.

Annotation
Christian Toth: In my opinion this move doesn't go with the spirit of the position, which is to make points and try to run home because of the slight race advantage and the anchor on the 5-point. Furthermore, it leaves a slot in the 2-point that doesn't improve the position in the future. So, 13/9 10/9 prepares builders and obviously loses less pips when hit on the 13-point instead of the 2-point.

Bots: Snowie agrees with the move played and thinks GNU's choice of 13/9 10/9 is a -0.037 mistake.

Annotation
Alex Zamanian: Definitely a good cube. White must hit a shot to win, and Red has plenty of flexibility with which to come home safely.

Despite the GNU evaluation results, I believe this a pass. Too often Red will have no problems coming home safely. I believe GNU is overestimating how bad it for Red to have the 6 point stripped and several checkers buried deep in his board. Neither damages Red's position that much. He'll have plenty of time to spread out his spares.

Bots: The position hadn't been rolled out initially as both Snowie and GNU thought it was a clear Double/Take with similar evaluations. The rollouts confirmed Zamanian's evaluation.

Annotation
Alex Zamanian: Red should take a look at paying now with 13/7 13/10 because his position is deteriorating. But paying now isn't advisable here because White will likely have to give something up next turn. If White had more time, say if the checkers on his 2 point were moved back to his midpoint, then 13/7 13/10 would be clear.

Annotation
Alex Zamanian: There goes Red's last landing spot. It's going to be very difficult for Red to come home safely now, so 13/6 should be seriously considered. White will still have to give something up next turn, but now has the liberty of running from the 20 point, which really won't hurt his defensive position so much. Still, 13/6 leaves 17 shots, which is almost a worst-case scenario if Red chooses to pay later. I agree with 7/6 7/1.

Annotation
Alex Zamanian: Many beginners wouldn'tsee White's play since it's so natural to move doubles in pairs. White correctly keeps a checker as far back as possible while controlling every part of the board. Notice the blot on the 20 point isn't in much danger; only 1-1 and 2-1 do significant damage.

Annotation
Alex Zamanian: Leaving a direct shot with 13/8 4/1 must be considered. Playing "safe" leaves 6 shots, while paying now leaves 13 shots. So Red gets hit immediately 7/36 (19%) more times if he pays now. So the question is, when Red gets missed after the safe play, does he get hit more than 19% of the time? If he does then paying now is likely correct.

Sometimes White will be forced to leave the 20 point, but most of the time he'll be staying there. Next turn though, he'll likely have to run or make some concessions, so we only have to consider the chance that Red will get hit next roll.

Assuming Red plays safe now, he'll leave a direct shot next turn with 17 rolls. (4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 6-1, 6-2). Plus he will leave an indirect shot with 8 rolls (1-1, 2-1, 3-1, 2-2, 3-2). Since White will have 6 numbers to hit after the indirect shots, let's call them 4 direct shots instead of 8 indirect shots, giving White the equivalent of 21 direct shots. He will hit about a 1/3 of them so he'll hit 7/36 times or 19%. The plays are likely close, as the evaluation indicates.

We ignored the fact that White will sometimes be leaving the 20 point if Red plays safe and gets missed, so that's an additional argument for playing safe as Red did over the board.
