In making the decision to drop, I need to know my gammon chances were I to take.

Of course. But I don't understand why you want to know your cubeless gammon chances if you were to take. Don't you want to know your actual gammon chances if you were to take?

The way GNU evaluates a cube decision ATS is to roll the position out both ways, with "no double" and "double, take." So you'll get your gammon chances, contingent on your taking, by looking at the stats for "double, take."
