In Response To: bearoff database at score (Bob Koca)

OK, I see what you mean. If, for example, the score is such that a 4-cube is possible and the cube is centered, you have to keep playing. But if you had a DB that, for all scores, checker positions, and cube locations in a 7-point match (with non-contact), showed the probability of each player winning the game with 1-, 2-, 4-, and 8-cube you wouldn't need to keep rolling the position out.

Doesn't sound like a trivial project to build the DB, though.
