Would like to discuss a position which occurred in a 17-pt match played online.
I was leading 9-away, 17-away. Opponent had the cube at 4 and was on roll. I had 9 men left, opponent had 10. Neither had a checker on the 6 or 5 points or more than 4 checkers on any point. I do not remember the pip count (is it important for the decision?). Opponent doubled and after 5 seconds i took and later lost 8 points to level the score. So was it a double and was it a pass/take?
My reasoning without doing calculations- take and win means it's 1-away, 17-away Crawford, take and lose it's even and pass is 9-away, 13-away. Should be an easy take but is it?

yordanh, when playing online you should have a logfile of the match. On every trustable online play site you have the possibility to log your matches. There are VERY few sites that don't provide logging, and I would never play there.

For most problems the EXACT postion matters. Can you provide us with the position?
