In Response To: Good enough to cube? (neilkaz)

Adjusting for g's and recube vig gives Black around a 28% takepoint ATS and he's clearly over that so it's the double not the take that's in question. That decision looks close. Not a particularly efficient cube but I count > 9 market losers (most dbls, dbl hit & miss, single hit and fan) which usually is enough to send over an initial cube. Other considerations: Your 20-pt anchor and slight lead in the race should keep you in the game for quite a while if you roll poorly or if the next sequence is a good one for black; this is a moneylike score; Steve is a great player so you can't shade your cubes any. Looks like a small double to me.
