Cube action ATS?

In Response To: Cube action ATS? (John O'Hagan)

If white takes she'll have an auto-recube for the match. Passing gets her to 8aC, or about 7% MWC. Does White have 7% here?

Point of last take for money is 9, so lets say 9 pips down is 22% GWC. At 2 percent per pip, that puts her right at zero when 20 pips down, so I don't think the 2 percent per pip rule is correct (if it's even a rule - is it?)

So, I really don't know what to do with this, other than to say it must be a cube since I can't tell if it's a pass or not. Against a better player I'd definitely take since it's all luck from here. Against an inferior one I'd pass and take my chances to outplay her.

I'll say R/T, but not at all sure about the take.
