Drop -- 13a-2a. Equity at this score should be slightly better than at 11a-1aCr (aboit 3.5%), lets say 4%. Swing between wining and losing 8cube is 42.5%. 4/42.5 gives a take point of slightly more than 9%
Gap on the ace worth a checker off by itself. So, the refetence position is closed board vs. 3 checkets off and rest are on ace and deuce pts which I think is 11%. Here Black is worse, since thete is almost no hope to hit a checker to use his 4pt board. Blacks plan is racing, and he'd rather have speedy board instead. Adjustment is small, perhaps 1%.. I see no reasons to do any adjustment for the White side. He has an extra checket off comared to the reference position, but he usually takes a checker or two off in the reference position before opening his board anyway. So, black wins 10% and has a take. White's redoubling window is very small but he is very close to his cash point, so I believe redoubling is technically correct.
