The forum rolled a 6-1 from the bar to dance, it's a cube decision for roadkillbooks:

The fascist's feelings of insecurity run so deep that he desperately needs a classification of some things as successful or superior and other things as failed or inferior. This also underlies the fascist's embracement of concepts like mental illness and IQ tests.  - R.J.V.

An early 5-5 blitz followed by at least one checker dancing on the bar, is usually a double. It's good to study reference positions for this, as they will also help you decide about other blitz doubles/takes.

This double also looks like a great Woolsey Rule double. Are you absolutely sure this is a take? I dare you!  Not absolutely sure? Double and let your opponent worry about it. No need to consider market-losers or volatility.
