Slight advantage in race, position looks roughly even, we threaten to hit or block the blot, so that seems to add up to D/T in the first order analysis.

Looking more deeply, white's blot is a real problem - if she runs then she breaks contact while behind in the race, but if she stays she risks being blitzed off the board. That white will have the more difficult decisions awaiting (our play should be fairly straightforward) makes me think it's a cube against a human, but not necessarily a bot.

So, ship is despite not being far enough ahead in the pipcount to be a race cube. And white's strong forward structure coupled with her ability to turn this into a straight race makes me think take. Maybe the gammons push it to a pass, but I'll say take.

D/T.
