"Always remember that your decision to play on is for the NEXT roll only."

Correct. Many people often think cubeless losses vs gammons. Fact is that any position which on your next doubling opportunity can be cashed or is a close take can be scored as a win. Just because your opponent can win the position if played out to the end 20% of the time while you only win 5% gammons doesn't mean it is not still too good. If you will be able to cash those 20% losses and still get to keep the 5% gammons you are clearly too good.
