In Response To: 2-2 to play (pontiac)

I didn't notice it was no Jacoby when I commented. But even without Jacoby I would cash. Lets say White wins 25% or more. Does Blue win 50% or more gammons? Clearly not. Of course most of the time Blue can cash or continue to play for a gammon next roll, but I am sure there are also many sequences after which White can take or Blue doesn't even have a double. If you decide to play for a gammon now, you are likely to make mistakes and give some of your equity back. How would I play 22 here? 22(2) 13/9. QF makes me think it is wrong, but I'd play it anyway.
