In Response To: Too much QF but interesting anyway (Timothy Chow)

This one is very sensitive to the score. When it came up OTB, it was actually at some score (I don't remember exactly) where the computer said the banana split was correct. (OTB, I thought about hitting but did not hit.) It's fun to tinker with this one at different scores. If you do so, though, be aware that truncated XG rollouts aren't all that reliable for this position.
