Sure, that works, if we don't mind confusing unintentional match-losing drops with intentional match resignations combined with frivolous cube action on the part of the leader.

But what actually happened was, the leader was mistaken, and after redoubling here ...

The score is: Gallant 9, Gufus 16 (match to 17 points). Gufus on roll, cube decision?

• Gufus doubles

Alert: wrong double ( -0.0000)!

Cube decision
2-ply cubeless equity +1.0000(Money: +1.8202)
1.0000 0.8202 0.0000 - 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000
Cubeful equities:
1.No double +1.0000
2.Double, pass +1.0000 +0.0000
3.Double, take +1.0000 -0.0000
Proper cube action:Never redouble, take (dead cube)

... lost the match after redouble/take here, a few turns later:

The score is: Gallant 9, Gufus 16 (match to 17 points). Gallant on roll, cube decision?
