Doubling is the easy part of this cube decision as Blue is assured of having at least a three point board, with 51, 53, 44 making a four point board. If White dances again with both checkers, it should be market loss.
I think the take is clear because I have my five point and a strong forward position. At the moment Blue doesn't have enough "wood" to put me away and I should be able to anchor up. (Of course I tend to get gammoned more often than other people in my chouette because I'm not scared to take this type of double.)
Interesting variants are lifting of the White's blot on his 11 point, switching White's five point to the four point and adding a checker to Blue's 8 point.
