Position information:

Pip-count: Red 137-124 White
Score:       Red   0-0   White
Match:            5-pointer

Red on roll. Proper cube action?






Spoiler
After a failed blitz, white is now in a very inflexible position, having burried 4 checkers behind red's anchor, stacking 6 men on his 6-pt and having both of his back men in front of red's 4-pt prime. Thus white's small lead in race should not induce him to take.

Cube analysis

2-ply cubeless equity  +0.600 (Money:  +0.606)

   71.2%  25.5%   1.0% -  28.8%   8.2%   0.2%

Cubeful equities:

1. Double, pass         +1.000
2. Double, take         +1.073  ( +0.073)
3. No double            +0.830  ( -0.170)

Proper cube action: Double, pass

The leftist's feelings of inferiority run so deep that he cannot tolerate any classification of some things as successful or superior and other things as failed or inferior. This also underlies the rejection by many leftists of the concept of mental illness and of the utility of IQ tests.  - T.K

It's very interesting compare this position to position 37. What's the difference?  :)
