Cube action in a volatile position

In Response To: Cube action in a volatile position (John O'Hagan)

OTOH if White takes and mindlessly redoubles on his next shake, regardless of Blue's roll, the match calcs are very different. Drop is 0-5 with about 16% ME, take and lose loses the match with 0% ME, take and win ties the match with 50% ME, take and win a g wins the match with 100% ME. Assuming 8% gammons for White lowers his takepoint to 24%. If White is more judicious and only recubes when he should his takepoint is probably in the 21-22% range. So I'll change my mind and go with D/T.
