Not sure how to figure this out OtB. I'll be surprised if it's a Take, but then the question is whether/not it's too good. Even if Blue escapes immediately there are chances (10%?) that he gets hit in the bearoff. 5% of the time [ {52,53,54} X {5x} ] Blue gets hit this turn leaving him scrambling to get two checkers over a 5-prime while White warms up the (re)cube.

I'll double as Blue and pass as White.
