In Response To: A -3, -9 cube decision (Neil Robins)

This sure looks like a game that will be tough to win for white.

Blue is about to block white's back guys. White is stacked, frontloaded and stripped. To boot white has an awfull checker on ace.

The only 2 things that point towards a take is the race and the score. The score is far more important than the race and white does have a lot of recube vig here.

However, I'm really struggling to see white's game plan and I would probably let this one go, even though I hate passing a cube with this much play left when I'm trailing bigtime.
