During the Beltway tournament, Ed O'Laughlin and Neil Kazaross played a 5-point exhibition match, and discussed their plays out loud to an appreciative and interested audience. I transcribed the match and saved the stream of it as well. Sadly, the audio for the recording is completely messed up, and it's basically unwatchable. A guy recorded the audio on his phone, and we're working out trying to get the audio overlayed on the video... with any luck, we'll get a better recording and you can watch the match.

Meanwhile, here is the XG file. It took me a couple of days to post it because I did a bunch of rollouts. I rolled out every error, every actual cube turn, and pretty much every close play. 1296 trials, 4-ply/4-ply. If I missed something rollout-worthy, please let me know and I'll be glad to spin it.
