In Response To: Backgame cube (Timothy Chow)

1. For whatever reason they had a blindspot and didn't see that they could play 13/8(4) until it was too late

They played 13/8(2) and didn't see they could play 13/8(4)? Jesus H...where are these players?

2. They figured that they were going to get doubled out regardless so that it didn't matter what they did.

Look at the position after 13/8(4) - nobody, and I mean nobody, could possibly pass that.

I would know more about the opponent of course if I was involved the actual game itself but based on the knowledge presented in this post there's no way in Hades I would cube.
