In Response To: Cube Action (Giuliano Pietoso)

The double seems pretty clear, even without knowing that when someone (other than a few devious people like Michael Depreli ;-) ) posts a doubling decision where the bot is on roll, it's almost always a double.

The take looks pretty scary here, with White on the bar and 40 pips down in the race. However, Blue can't clean up both his blots and make a new home-board point at the same time. I think White is a favorite to get a shot from here, but of course she still has to hit it and then contain the hit checker. My guess is that this is a close take. However, I have a tendency to take too deeply so who cares what I think...
