Apparently nobody is even close to ++ good because XG played 6/4 on ++ and so far it has held in the rollout! Now, what's a 3ply/XGR rollout worth of such a position? Idk, more than nothing certainly ... I plan on rolling out the top 3 plays (at least) on much higher settings and coming back and posting + comparing tomorrow. Rollout will take a while.
