In Response To: -3-4 cube action (poseidon)

Play it out a few times with the cube turned, and when doing so, realize that you have to drop the recube with about 40% GWC, and that recubes are gammoncidal. When you do that, you will find that a lot of the games the trailer gets (double anchor games with high gammon rates) may suck for money, but are good at this score for the trailer with the cube on 2 at his side.

I am not sure whether a position with this high a gammon rate will ever be a good double at this score. It looks to me that you are either not good enough (like here) or too good (if you further improve).
