Cubelessly, 13/3* is ahead by a healthy margin at the score as well as for $. For $, it suffers from bad cube vig. Maybe that's because when it works well (White can't enter), there is a big market loss.

At the score, 13/3* + dance according to gnubg leads to a double which is close to the take point and therefore still somewhat efficient, although it is gammicidal.
