In Response To: Don't understand this cube problem (mtuhtan)

I'd cube as blue because Blue has 2 back against 3 with one on the bar, Blue has a stronger board, and threatens to make a good point and/or escape a checker and/or make a good anchor. As White I'd take because of the anchor, the nice 4 prime, and the duplication of Blue's numbers (6s and 2s). White's counterplay is quite considerable. The take is a lot clearer than the double.
