In Response To: Do you know your backgammon values? (Timothy Chow)

My intuition was to run, but when I ran the numbers (same way as JOH did), I got it as too close to call (running by 0.3% MWC), and perhaps depending on how well one can chase the second checker after hitting a shot. I am running out against weaker opposition of course.
