Hi all!

In a money game at the club I reached this position as X. Knowing that I play
against a weak player, who might think this is a three roll position and don't
see that he can recube after any 2, and therby drop, I decide to redouble
this.
Then I go back to my GNU Backgammon and put the position and evaluate the
position with the two-sided bearoff database.

Redouble, take : +0,227 (-0,164)
Correct cube action: No redouble, take
This looks al right!
Then I roll the position out. I use expert on chequerplay and 2-ply on cube
decisions. The cubeful equity of a 4-cube at the other side changes.
Cube analysis
Rollout cubeless equity +0,234
1. No double +0,391
2. Double, pass +1,000 ( +0,609)
3. Double, take +0,356 ( -0,035)
Proper cube action: No redouble, take (5,5%)

Full cubeful rollout with var.redn.

Play: 0-ply cubeful [expert]
Cube: 2-ply cubeful 100% speed [world class]
Why does the cubeful equity change? Which cubeful equity is right?
0.227 to 0.356 that's quite a lot!
