In Response To: Blitz cube with 2pt board - Rollout (Timothy Chow)

I know plenty of human opponents who are very cautious with the cube. Cube strategy is easy with them. They never double until it's obviously a gigantic drop.

Similarly I know many opponents who are very aggressive doublers. Almost all their doubles are obviously ND/T.

I agree with you for aggressive doublers (ND/T) and very cautious doublers (D/P and sometimes TGTD/P).

But I was speaking for those opponents who are not in one of those two categories.
"My" players are those who are very good with doubling estimates, but unlike bot they wouldn't double in situations where DT equity is something like 0.650 and ND is 0.640 - they would wait one more roll and give you much harder cube.

For the sake of simplicity, let's say they are guided by Woolsey's rule and they don't double those "Yes, I'm 100% sure it is a take" situations where there aren't plenty market losers. Bot will double this and you have (very) easy take.
They will give you cube in situations where both you and them are "not 100% sure it is a take" and there is possibility you will make a error. Bot will not double this as cube is already on your side.
