Cube action?

In Response To: Cube action? (John O'Hagan)

We are inside our market window, have 4 possible market losers (big doubles followed by a non-double), and we are going to double next turn unless we roll a missing 2 or opponent a double. Doubling only risks about 2%, for a gain of about 29%.

So by doubling we gain 4/36 * 30/36 * 29% and we lose (6/36 + 10/36 * 30/36) * 2 = 1.9% (not exact due to rounding of the various match equities).

This is a clear recube.
