In Response To: Who has better end of this prop involving a handicap (Bob Koca)

The "Fish Book" actually covers cases where the players are equal in cube handling abilities with the rating difference solely based upon checkerplay differnces. Here are the chances that the stronger player wins trailing 6-away, 5-away:

Category	50 pt. diff.	100 pt. diff.	200 pt. diff.
checker & cube weakness	46.4%	49.6%	55.7%
only checker weakness	47.0%	50.9%	58.1%

Does the fact that the cube is dead mean the stronger player's MWC's should be even larger than the bottom row's values?
