In Response To: RO & a variation (John O'Hagan)

Here I give White his 8 pips back. Passive play is still best since Blue is very much in the game when White's runner escapes and Blue also gets a direct shot if White rolls 65 or 54.

		White is Player 2 score: 0 pip: 132 Unlimited Game Jacoby Beaver pip: 131 score: 0 Blue is Player 1
