Best format for learning & fun

Unlimited session or match?

Anyway, I'd suggest normal play with a prop rule. You play any prop for at least 3 games (more if both parties would like to continue). Once a prop has been played out, you look at the XGR++ or rollout evaluation, and also score the equity difference.

By doing so, you have a much better feeling for the position (from having propped it), when you look at the numbers in XG. And you get your score (money or points) in 3 different flavours:
1) The result of the actual game.
2) Your ability to pick the best end of the props (or play them better than your opponent).
3) Actual XG PR evaluation.

All you have to do is balance the scoring between the 3, to suit you personal preferences.

Notice, that if you prefer match play, you must score your props using a match equity table. A little bit more complicated, but nothing that should frighten you too much.
