White needs 25% to take. If it were a pure race then based on the pip count I don't think White could take; it's a low-wastage position so I think it would be a marginal take for money, and here White would have no recube vig. However, there's still contact left, which I think favors White slightly since White has a somewhat stronger front position than Blue does. I'm not sure but I think White can take.

Woolsey's law says that it should therefore be a double, but ATS there's the additional question of whether we're throwing away too many gammons by doubling. I don't have a good feel for how many gammons there are here but it doesn't look high enough to dissuade me from doubling. D/T.
