Another form of the Losing Game is for one player to have all his twelve men against a single man of the other player. I give a position of this kind as
A Problem in the Losing Game.

Black to move and win, that is, give all his men away.
Another funny form of draughts is for one player to give the other the odds of having once (or oftener during the progress of the game) the right of moving twice in succession, this right being exercised at such time as the odds-receiver may choose. There should be great disparity in the strength of the two players, as the odds is really very great.
