In Response To: bear off cube (Timothy Chow)

All the usual formulae, i.e. Keith's, Thorp's, Kleinman's and pip-count see this position as redouble/pass , as easily verified with a bot. :)

I'd like to know, if it is a general tendency of Keith's count to understeimate the taker's winning chances? And where do you draw the border between "short" and "long" races, please ?
