In Response To: Rollout: Bearing off against a nearly-busted backgame (David Levy)

I played the position from 5/off many times and was constantly hit suggesting a pay know pay later from a human point of view. Playing 6/4 3/off if white fails to hit, your next roll and position is overall more comfortable as confirmed by dice analysis per XG. The roll odds and permutations in such positions too much for me to handle. As I said earlier not much wrong with the human safe play, its all on the day.
