This is one of those lovely little positions we find ourselves in occasionally -- the prototypical pressure double.

Getting gammoned on a four-cube hurts me no worse than getting gammoned on a two-cube.

Getting gammoned on a four-cube gives opponent a devastating match loss. But, IMHO, it is one of those common situations: "you don't have to like it, you just have to take it".

But, with the big gammon scare on the four-cube, you'll get a few drops here.

OTB, I cubed, opponent muttered, groaned, and passed. Theft!! The Mecklenburg grand jury is currently considering charges.
