This is an approximation of the position. It is almost surely not the exact position. I ginned up a position where it matched what I am sure of:

  1. the pip count was 63-72 in my favor
  2. my opponent's 5 point was open
  3. I had a couple checkers on my 8 or 9 pt.
  4. my opponent had 2 checkers, one in his outer board, one in mine
  5. my opponent had 3 checkers on his 6 pt.
  6. all my inner board board points were covered


Match to 11, Blue leads 9 to 7
Cube Action?
72
63

As an exercise for the reader, please gin up any position where all of the six above criteria apply. If you can find a No Double in this, please share the position and tell me what gnubg settings you used. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but most variations of the above position that I tried were either Double/Take or Double/Pass.
