If Blue hits and you reenter immediately he hasn't lost his market. If he is closed out, he still has good chances to get off of the gammon. Even though:

1) there is overage

2) the value of gammons avoided on a 2 cube is low

3) the value of gammons won on a four cube is high

I would wait. I would like to say that I am waiting in hopes of giving a tough cube later. But, that doesn't look likely. Most recubes are going to be easy takes or easy drops. There just isn't enough here for a redouble.
