Milking more out of the Depreli positions

Then all this will add up to a 0.005 systematic error in the bot's comparison of Plays A and B. Since these figures don't seem unreasonable given what we know of bot weaknesses, we should not trust equity differences of only 0.005.

I don't think this follows.

Assuming that SVM Light can output a decent classifier of this type, one could then program the bot to run the classifier on all the positions that arise during a rollout. This would then allow us to produce estimates of the bot's systematic errors. The rollout would take longer, of course, but in practice SVM Light classifiers run very fast, probably significantly faster than a 3-ply evaluation.

I don't know anything about SVM Light so I have no knowledge of its practicality or advantages or disadvantages.
