In Response To: No-gammon position cube (Chuck Bower)

Humans seem to have trouble with this position type but it doesn't take much luck to dredge up 12.5% cubeless needed to take. Many who saw this in Madison were passing, but after a couple minutes I felt it was clearly a take, which means that I doubt it is a proper recube. I take a roll and then cube if Black is still on my ace pt.

My open ace pt will often bother me for many turns and Black has enough sleezt wins to easily win 1/8 of these games if played at DMP.
