Just plain odd. I understand it but it's still hard for me to swallow. [this wasn't my play btw, an opponent of mine in the Open draw in Cleveland] 6/4(2) wins more games, wins more gammons, loses less gammons, cube already turned, seems like it would be obvious which play is best wouldn't it!? Nope ... though it's a cubeless favorite, the opportunity to use the cube apparently makes making the bar the superior play. I would have played 6/4(2) :'(

The score (after 0 games) is: gnubg 3, user 7 (match to 11 points)

Move number 6: gnubg to play 11
