Thanks, I'm familiar with the idea of rolling a prime forward and know that the bots can't seem to get these obvious positions right, but I've never heard it called a "snake prime" before.

For those who might not be aware of how the bots misplay rolling a prime forward, here's XG 3-ply. Higher settings only make it worse.

		White is Player 2 score: 0 pip: 41 Unlimited Game Jacoby Beaver pip: 257 score: 0 Blue is Player 1
