Is the cube actually in the middle here??? What for? Would you take if you were White? Are you 100% sure about this?

Given that you did not double, and moved 13/5, then got hit... Would White take THAT double, with 4 blots strewn around the board? (???!) Even if he would, do you care?

I am quite sure you missed a double here and you never have to endure the bad beat if your opponent, (some of them will), passes your double. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
