In Response To: Bearing off against a nearly-busted backgame (Neil Robins)

I'd expect a bot on a high level to do an OK job from here as it isn't that complicated in comparison to some containment endgames and there often aren't that many choices.

I started a XGR+ RO using a Gigantic search interval. The default SI for 3 ply tends to be too small for these positions when a small number is rolled.
