In Response To: Which play is better based upon rollouts (Matt Cohn-Geier)

Matt :

I've brought this issue up before and MCG has responded that he doesn't think it's significant because backgames don't show up often enough.

FWIW I was talking about where the difference between plays is around .01 or more. In the past there were huge issues with JF because it was terrible at back games, but are much stronger. Even some GNU ROs (like 51S-21, 41$-11, etc.) are off, though. I'd say it's pretty unlikely that a difference of .01-.05+ will be somehow overturned in the future.

Does anyone have any data on bot v bot play how often back games show up?

Are they more or less likely to show up in Snowie v Snowie rollouts based on it's early game style?

Michael
