I'm still totally inexperienced with cube action AtS, but it's hard for me to believe that we can send the cube over in this situation.
Just money play for you? You talk about how you view BG a strategy game much more than a gambling game -- I would have thought you'd be into match play over money play (or heads up, or whatever you want to call it).
I tried this position in GNU with different scores. Indeed, AtS (-5:-4) this was a huge ND, but at -4:-3, -3:-2, -4:-2, and -5:-2, GNU 2-ply says it's a double, and at -5:-3 it's getting closer to a double -- still a mistake, but you're not going to BK. Interestingly, XGR+ agrees with all of these except -5:-3, where it says it's a close double!
Anyway, that gives us some idea as to why stopping for a vote here isn't so unreasonable. AtS it's a whopper to cube, but change up the score and you've got some action.
