In Response To: Desperate Double (John O'Hagan)

"and I learned the other day that you can sometimes cube when your not even in the window."

What is happening in those positions is that opponent's cube power is lower after the double than before it and that is not taken into account in the doubling window calculation. That effect only happens on initial cubes but here the cube is already owned.
