What a mess.

Since there's no outward indication that we're not playing Jacoby you might mention it next time you post a non Jacoby problem. I assumed since I know you and know that you know what you're doing that it was not Jacoby and I double checked by putting it into XG where it clearly shows me but it might be easier for others.

As for nactating it, I'm sure it could be done, but where's the money in it. Seems like a colossal waste of time. I find it interesting to do with early game positions but it doesn't take that long and I feel like I learn just a smidge by doing it.

As for the problem, of course it's a huge double. Nobody has any idea really what's going on here so even if it isn't a cube the amount of drops involved would make it a snooze of a double. My guess is it's still a take with so many men off and still a fair amount of work to do. There's a lot of slime equity in such positions. BG is a funny game. I also think the player doubling will have a harder time playing this out than the taker.
