An Old 14th variation that leads to a fantastic finish!

One of the most popular openings in checkers, the Old 14th, is full of many fascinating variations. The particular line showcased in today's video was a favorite of chess icon Irving Chernev. He remarked in his book, "The Compleat Draughts Player," that it's this variation he shows to chess players to demonstrate the beauty of checkers. It's truly a remarkable game that can be appreciated and enjoyed by all players.
This game, won by Mugridge against Hodges, was originally featured in Gould's Historic and Memorable Matches.
