I've noticed that when XG is about to offer me the cube on his next roll, it shows the equity of my previous move to be -1.000 if it is correct for me to pass the cube. Otherwise, if it is a take, it'll show me the normal equity for my move. This has always annoyed me because it basically spoils my cube decision for me by alerting me beforehand what I should do. I don't want to hide the equity table because I play in teaching mode and like to see the results of my decisions.

Is there a way to not allow XG to predictively label my equity for incoming cube pass decisions?

Go to 'Options' and 'Settings' and 'Mode' and uncheck 'See Equities'.
