In Response To: Rollout Results Posted (Paul Weaver)

I hate to steal your thunder, Paul, but W = 25 - B has been around for decades! After Blue makes a hit, backgammon programs use it to find the point where White's blot can be picked up so that it can be placed on the bar.

I wrote about it here back in 2013.

Thanks for the nice positions!
