In Response To: Position Classique, Coup Classique, or Whatever the Correct Name Is (Bill Riles)

Bill, you're still confusing "backgammon costs you the match" with "backgammon save score." In Jason's situation, saving the backgammon is correct. However, in the position you're talking about here, GNU 2-ply says that staying is correct.

It depends on the score and on the details of the position.
