We need another look at this I think, the last one was quite close.

Spoiler

We've got a huge positional advantage and a huge race advantage.  And with his anchor we're definitely not too good to double.   AtS, I'm inclined to wait until it's a cash to turn the cube, but  while it doesn't seem to be a cash here, our race and positional advantage is too strong to sit on it any longer.

Double.

Not entirely sure about this one either.
