Hello,

Answer - Double/Take

No idea about this one whatsoever.

Against a human I would double just because I suspect there would be a lot of drops out there.

I would double because I have no idea whether this is a take. Blue only has a three point board with a blot and has three stuck behind a 5 point prime. However, unless white gets in and gets out quickly he is going to be in a nasty position. Equally blue has enough timing to wait for a while in hope of rolling a 6.

I think on balance I would take just because there are so many factors and things that could go wrong for blue (such as a long spell without a 6). In addition white has a 5 point prime, a 4 point board and a racing advantage.

I will post an XGR++ analysis of this with some variations (such as moving the blue prime forwards) on Friday or Saturday.
