My apologies to Nack for screwing up the definition of "whopper." A whopper is an error of at least 0.10 and a blunder is an error of at least 0.05.

Apology accepted (of course), but please double-check page 93 or the final page of Backgammon Openings for our definition of blunder. As I recall, we considered .05+ but decided that blunder = .06+ strikes a better balance between mistake (.03+) and whopper (.10+).

Best regards,

Nack
