What you say is true in general, but is it true work that part of the game where you arw on the bar dancing?

Sometimes when you're on the bar it is the dancing rolls that are lucky and the rolls that allow you to enter unlucky. You can make repeated errors from such a position as long as the cost of each error is equal to the gain you get from dancing.

Example:

  1. On the bar versus a 5-point board, Player does not double. [An error, costing x amount of equity.]
  2. Player rolls and dances. [A lucky roll, gaining x amount of equity.]
  3. Opponent is closed out.
  4. We are back to Position 1. Player's equity is the same as before, as it should be since it is the same position.
