In Response To: Even More Backgame Cubes (Stick)

Blue does have to play first, right?

How about these Blue rolls: {6-4, 6-5, 5-3, 5-4}.

I take as White. And this reminds me (only in principle) of a position and similar score Neil had against me in INDY a few years ago, where he said (paraphrased) "if most of my wins are going to be gammons I don't need to risk turning the cube". Of course if the position is actually a pass, nevermind.

ND+T.
