Break that bridge!

Post by Richard Pask »

See Complete Checkers Diagram 162

B: 1,3, 21; king on 18
W: 10, 12, 16; king on 2
WTP and draw

Continue: … 16-11; 21-25 and now the 10-6 pitch! draws immediately and is much easier than 11-8 and the bridge endgame.

Note that in Boland's Bridges the black man is on 26 and this escape is not available.
