R4


XGR++ correctly identifies the best play at three of the four scores. It claims that the best play at gammon go is the same as the best play for money (and some respondents aligned with exactly that), but the rollouts show differently.

This position is a confirmed R4 (real four-score position, no ties), as illustrated below.

Summary:

    (1) money: .6/5*(2) 4/3*(2) ..best by .032
    (2) dmp: ....24/22 6/5*(2) .....best by .015
    (3) save: ....24/22(2) .............best by .048
    (4) go: .......4/3*(2) 3/1*(2) ...best by .033

The disadvantage of 4/3*(2) 3/1*(2) is that White needs merely to roll a 5 to make an advanced anchor. The advantage is that the 10pt and 8pt builders work maximally to execute a blitz, of special benefit at (gammon) go.

Answers to questions 5, 6 and 7 will be posted separately.
