[Theories on Doubling]Description
This article devoted to current practices and thinking about doubling strategy provides insight into the state for doubling theory in its early years. Hattersley provides some concrete advice about "playing on" for a gammon in closeout positions, but at this point no one had yet grasped (or at least expressed in publication) that an extra gammon is worth only 1/2 of an extra loss.Publication Details
