Cube action?

In Response To: Cube action? (John O'Hagan)

Black's take point is 30% here. White has no board so it doesn't look particularly gammonish. With black's three point board added to the equation, it sure looks like a take to me.

Does white have a double? It can't be too good given black's anchoring opportunities. Black can't redouble so that's an indication to double. But white still has work to do to extricate his men on the 18.

Finally, I'm not seeing any market losers other than doubles. I'd hold.
