Holding Game Cube Action

I think it is a pass because you get gammoned too much if you don't hit a shot. I don't like white's blot on the 4 and I don't like the third checker on blue's 6 point. That's just too many things not to like.

I am thinking that if I am wrong and this is a take I can't be wrong by a lot, but if I take I could be making a big mistake.

So as you can see, I have a scale I use when I am not sure. I ask how big a mistake it is likely to be if I take and how big a mistake it could be if I pass, and I choose the smaller mistake. Once in a while that even gets me to make the right decision. I call this Woozy's Law since I am woozy about this.

Now I will put it in XG and of course white will improve with the 4 point made and of course he will improve without a third checker, but what I really don't know is this: if this is a pass, will just one of those two changes make it a take. Well, again, since this might be a take in the first place, I suspect that either one of those two changes would make it a sure take. Yes, absolutely a take with either of those changes. (I think.)
