Pass for -13 -8 (27.5%), take and win for -5 -12 (81.5%), take and lose for -13 -4 (9.5%)...risking 18 to gain 54, so 18/72 works out to a takepoint of 25%. When you recube what is his takepoint?

Pass for -12 -5 (18.5%), take and win for the match, take and lose for the match. So your cash is cramped little bit more than money but you have a bigger window so the recube vig is still there. All in all it looks that what is correct for money is probably the same at the score, player considerations notwithstanding.

He figures to miss at least once whereas you will usually be taking checkers off. This isn't exactly a rolls vs. rolls position but I'll guess you waste a pip or 1.5 pips more than him. Since you are down 3 that leaves you effectively down 4 or 4.5 which gives you a close take for money. So theoretically you should have a close take here, maybe a little bit bigger take.

In practice you are supposed to pass these, I am pretty sure.
