Do yourself a favour and do a decent rollout and start smirking at your opponent cos you know for sure what you are doing. Do not rely on the presets for long complicated positions. You note that with this blitz there is a 25% chance white will not enter. There is a 30% chance white will enter and hit. This is a fair trade of at this stage of the game on account of the value of a potential gammon. One can make the plays and give a game winning chance to both positions, well I can in early and middle game positions. It is apparent that the blitz is a superior play. What is not so obvious is the latent power of the potential gammon. On occasions it is the potential gammon that justifies a cube despite the game winning chances not doing so. I'm doing a rollout, hope I'm right LOL.
