In Response To: A simple ace pt game (Dmitriy Obukhov)

Well, i think this one is easy for blue. At this score, blue doesn't have a doubling window so much as he has an event horizon. He just goes from being not good enough, to being too good. Best strategy is keep cube and play for gammon. If blue does double, white's decision is harder, he has to decide which side of the horizon he's on. I think I'd take this one and ship it right back. It looks to be easier to get four now and tie it than fight back from 6a, c.
