In Response To: Another cube decision (Neil Robins)

Does Blue have a take? ATS, the leader's 2-cube takepoint is around 20% + 56% of the trailer's g's. White's really short on men in the zone and can't afford to play real aggressively given Blue's strong board. Not a real volatile position either since the only big mkt losers are most doubles & dance - a pretty unlikely sequence. If White wins 20% g's here (and that's a big if) then Blue's takepoint is 31%. I think Blue's chances are at least 35% here, so the take is clear. White's short on mkt losers, so ND/T gets my vote. OTOH, some players pass too often when ahead so doubling is the practical play against Colonel Whiteflag (one of the characters in Danny Kleinman's books).
