White's EPC using the stack and straggler method is 68.5 (3.5 x # of checkers + straggler's pip count). I would also add 2 to that since the average pip count per checker of the 14 checkers in the inner board is ~2.3, so make the EPC 70.5. Seret's pipple count gives Blue an EPC of ~66.1. 64 would be a 9 roll position using Trice's 7n+1 so Blue has roughly a 9.3 rolls position. I think we can use Trice's "leader's rolls minus 3" as the trailer's point of last take in this position so a deficit of 6.3 would be the POLT. White's down by 4.4 so a clear take. Blue's lead is just within 2 pips of the POLT, so a small redouble. R/T.
