I guess I'm one of those humans that would have incorrectly passed at score when facing a triple shot. Interestingly enough, even a 23 (making a 4 prime) followed by 54 (played 8-4, 6-1) is only a .15 pass according to my GNU rollout. GNU also thinks that 23 followed by 65 (played 9-3, 6-1) is also a pass (.11), at least according to a short rollout. Note that a 150 game rollout preferred 9-3 6-1 to 9-3, 8-3 by a very small margin (.007)

GNU also rates leap and cover higher than the 4 prime -- but have not rolled that out.
