16 rolls point-on-head and the other 20 hit on White's side. Thus White will have at least two checkers on the bar. So far, so good.

For the 20 non-PoH rolls, White's 4x plus {11,22,33} will often(?) make this a Take. That's (20*14)/1296 = 280/1296 ~21.5%. Even without those, White's four point homeboard should last, leaving her a roll or two away from a decent game. That assumes she can anchor, though. Still a lot of gammons so White will be playing with fire.

I don't think it's out-of-the-question that some players would take this. It's feeling like a cubeturn to me:
