Not sure if White has a take here since 1)his basic 4-cube takepoint is ~28% ATS 2)the 4-cube gammon price is <25% ATS so Blue can aggressively slot the bar and risk being gammoned moreso than normal and when White does get a g it's worth less than normal 3) recube vig is reduced as well since Blue's 8-cube takepoint is ~16% and gammons won't matter. Blue can lose his mkt with D6,D3,D1,61 plus anything that slots the bar followed by a dance (and maybe a non-hitting entry). So definitely a double and it looks like a pass to me. If Blue can't slot the bar this time and White enters, Blue will probably slot or make it next time. If he slots, White basically will need to hit and then bearoff against your 2-point game to win the game. R/P.
