Recube action?

Sixes are market losers and that's eleven, but I think enough other sequences are bad enough - i.e. when he fails to leap or fill in the board and white rolls a two that you can't apply O'hagen's law here.

White doesn't get full value from a re-cube, so that's a point in favor of cubing. And blue only needs a six to basically ice it while white needs a deuce and then a 5 or 6 to be clearly ahead.

As blue I'd ship it and make it white's problem. Lot's of players will get the decision wrong, perhaps including me. I'd take since I see a lot of turnarounds, but not so sure.
