This position came up in the OLM at GammonU on Sunday. I posted these rollouts over there, but I like to put them here as well. Otherwise they are lost in 7 days when GammonU truncates its index.
The 4-away/8-away score tips the balance in favor of the splot. In unlimited games, running is just as good or better.
Petter Bengtsson suggests the difference is due to GS effects. I suspect he is right.
