Over the board, I am not in a hurry to cube this. Posed as a problem, my guess is double/take. White's checkers are disconnected, and it will be very difficult for him to bring his three runners around safely. Blue's winning chances shoot up as soon as White breaks his anchor.

The fact that White still has all of his spare checkers in front of Blue is significant. If Blue decides to break one of his anchors, White can try to make a fourth point in his board. If that works, he will have significant equity.
