Doubling is clear per the Woolsey rule. Can White take? Blue leaves an immediate direct shot on D6 and has a few rolls that leave an awkward position. Blue's position is somewhat inflexible with those 3 checkers on the deuce. Otoh, Blue does have 8 rolls (9 if you count D2) to make the 5 while D4 is also a good shot. White's racing chances are close to zero and I don't think the hitting chances are enough to make it a take. D/P.
