It is a match to 9; white leads 1-0 and holds a 2 cube and is on roll. What is the proper cube action?
According to Snowie, it is no redouble/take. However, in the actual match, I doubled and my opponent dropped. This proves that playing humans is not the same as playing the computer. It would clearly be wrong to double this if you are playing the computer, but when you are playing a human being, and there is a chance he will make a mistake, you are better off doubling and giving him the chance to make a mistake. If you are on the fence and you don't double, there is no chance for your opponent to make a mistake.
