Тремя дамками поймать одну очень просто, если большая дорога принадлежит сильнейшей стороне. В противном случае - ничья. Для этого существуют разные способы: треугольник Петрова, штык Гоняева и крюк Гоняева. В этой статье описан треугольник Петрова для русских шашек. При лучшей игре с обеих сторон дамка ловится максимум за 13 ходов. Он выглядит вот так:

Для построения треугольника Петрова нам нужно занять двойник (диагонали a7-g1 и b8-h2) и тройник (диагонали c1-h6, a1-h8, a3-f8). Сперва выгоняем с двойника чёрную дамку и занимаем его сами. Теперь нам нужно занять поля e3, f4 (или c5, d6). Теперь Ваш оппонент будет ходить только на b3 и e7. На a3 и f8 ему нельзя, иначе белые пойдут a1-b2 или a1-g7 соответственно. Должно получиться так, как на этой диаграмме:

Дальше нужно выгнать вражескую дамку с диагонали a3-f8. Для этого ставим дамку на поле c3 (если дамка противника стоит не на e7, а на b4, занимаем поле f6). Должно получиться вот так:

Теперь Ваш оппонент вынужден покинуть линию тройника, т.к. на f8 ему нельзя. Дальше ставим треугольник. Если ваш соперник пойдёт e7-d8, вы ответите f4-d6. Если он пойдёт e7-h4, мы ответим ходом e3-c5. Всё, треугольник готов!

Итак, куда бы ни пошли чёрные, они проиграют. Например, если чёрные пойдут на a5, белые ответят d6-b4. Чёрные возвращаются назад на d8, а белые идут e3-b6. Черные обязаны бить d8:a5. Ну, дальше уже ясно. Конечно, чёрные могут и не занимать тройник. Тогда белые сразу смогут занять поля e3, f4 или c5, d6 и построить треугольник Петрова ещё быстрее.

Можете посмотреть пример построения треугольника Петрова на видео:
