Beavers: redouble at once and keep the cube

A player who is offered a double may accept and immediately redouble to twice that value, keeping the cube on their own side instead of passing it over. The original doubler then accepts or drops as normal. Accepting a double ordinarily hands the cube across and the accepter must wait for their own turn to use it, so a beaver is what a double offered too cheaply costs.
