Out of interest I started looking at how XG might play this position on various plies and was going to run through all the rolls but I think these 5 rolls tell me enough that even XG has problems playing this optimally even on high settings.
Can not hitting be correct for 31?
For 51 I liked 11/10* 6/1* It didn't even make XG's top 32 so never even got a look in. I didn't delve any deeper to see if it completely missed any other contenders for the other rolls.
Inf = force XG to evaluate all 32 moves.
I think Xavier is aware that containment play is still a weakness in XG and hopefully future versions will show some improvement there.
