Takepoint is ~25%, accounting for recube vig but assuming no gammons. There are some gammons here, so maybe up this to ~27%.

White appears to have a Take, with no checkers out-of-play and OK timing. She can give up the midpoint if the dice coerce her into that.

{44,55} look like clear market losers, but are {22,33}? Meanwhile 66 is bad and 11 terrible.

I might be overvaluing White's game. Typically these two back point holding games look better than they turn out to be, but here I think Blue has more work to do before sending it.

N+T.
