Depends on who my opponent is. If it's a bot, it's totally predictable. But if he's a human, I would wait to see how he will play it (as doing so is allowed by the rules, for a good reason that may be eluding most here).
In other words, if my opponent misplays a "lucky roll", is it still a lucky roll?
Having a high IQ, high PHD, high BS, etc. is one thing but being capable of critical, independent, undogmatized thinking is something else.
By this variant tournament event, NY Metropolitan Open is, perhaps inadvertently but perhaps not, providing concrete evidence against more than one gamblegammon dogmas at the same time...
It will be interesting to see who, if anyone, here will have "high courage" to admit and accept them??
