In Response To: My backgame errors (Stick)

Truncated 3 ply rollouts are garbage in these sorts of positions.

That's why I'm doing regular 3-ply rollouts now ;) (Yes, 4-ply and XGR+ rollouts would be even better, but I don't have enough time for them)

I remember you once said that when it comes to backgames you prefer to ask some good players what would they play.
Can I ask you what (and why) would you play here?
