Comment about gammons

Another way to phrase my comment about White's cube vig is that I think that White very rarely wins 4 points in this game. Winning 4 points is what I would call an "effective gammon." White's effective gammon rate (which is what should be used in deciding whether to take) should be lower than White's (already low) cubeless gammon rate.

Maybe someone will do a GNU rollout and "View Statistics" to find out how often White wins 4 points, to compare it with White's estimated cubeless gammons.
