In Response To: Jacoby-like paradox? (Timothy Chow)

I think this does it. After the correct 4/off 2/off White has a marginal redouble, but after the incorrect 4/off 4/2 he would hold the cube. I'm sure there are better examples.

The score (after 0 games) is: Gnu 0, Paul 0

Move number 18: Paul to play 26

Gnu	7
Paul	10
