I might order the book (and Marty's Praxis) for some further study. This particular play, I know I would have gotten right OTB, and would also have gotten right pre-bot. Control the board, balance in spare distribution, does not start the strip the mid, stronger board.

One of the things that surprise me is the 63 play. From bot rollouts of similar positions, I have learned that this probably should be played 13/7 8/5*, which was not even on my radar screen before bot rollouts (I'd play 24/18 8/5* or 24/15, more often the first). And if I play such move myself, the results are terrible (same for 64 P on the opening roll). Does the book discuss the 13/7 8/5* play as well?
