Backgame Cube Action, Peever-Petko, Part 1

Petko and I recently played a 9pter in which we had a backgame at 5a5a. I took the sgg file (containing the rolls and the plays, produced by GridGammon) and I edited it in MS-Word, thereby cleverly deceiving XG into believing that this game was part of a money session instead of from a match. I hope neither Xavier nor anyone else has moral issues with this deceptive act, which has enabled me to keep the money rollout results of all twelve positions in one XG file.

Six of these backgame positions appear below, presented as if they arose in a money game (to pacify Stick). I plan to post my 3ply rollout results in approx 24 hours. Sometime later, I plan to post the remaining six cube-action positions from this game.

Position 1.
