I knew this was a pass but I thought it to be a small one, under .040. The racing lead alone in conjunction with the 9pt is what did it for me. Even though XG's checkers on the ace point hurt his timing some I didn't expect it to be enough to swing this to a take.
People mentioned the state of my offensive position which is a just question. It will be at least a turn before XG could take advantage of that and by then it should be squared away. I wasn't so worried about putting my offense together. It could be better, of course, but a very minor drawback in my opinion.
My take point is slightly elevated though I'm not sure to the extent it was suggested in this thread. Also, my opponent's gammons are worth a smidge more. Very minor net difference but when we're talking about a small bit of equity to begin with everything counts.
The real question is, which some of you have mentioned but nobody came out and expressed an opinion, is should Stick take against XG? I was comfortable taking assuming it was the small error I thought it was in the first paragraph. I wouldn't have been so comfy if I had known how big of an AtS pass it was.
Assuming ~3 PR difference or 100 elo between myself and XG we can input it into GNU using the Jacobs100 staggered match equity table. The results are posted below the XG AtS rollout. Result, very clear take. A normal score rollout follows that.
