In Response To: Vegas Championship First Round; 17 min, 16-cube match; Blue's 16-Cube (John O'Hagan)

I was thinking of the 4-cube gammon prices when I wrote that"...the 8-cube gammon price is just a little less than the normal 1/2 at this score...". But gammons go way down in value when the cube gets to 8 in a 15 pointer and they're only worth about 7/32 at this score. Your gammon wins/losses is nowhere near 32/7 in this position so it's nowhere near too good.
