At 5a 4a the leader's takepoint on a recube is 34%, or 30% if there are no gammons. I'm not seeing very many so I'll assume a 30% takepoint.

I'll ship it for sure since some players will muff the take decision. And I might be one of them since I'd let this one go. 17 shakes make the five prime and with six checkers to get by and a swiss cheese board White has a lot of work to do to turn this around.
