In Response To: Correct to double and correct to beaver (Timothy Chow)

A crucial part of the analysis is the assumption that if White fails to leap the prime immediately and Black (re)doubles, then White must drop. The question I have is, is this really a drop?

Yes.

If you think so, how do you know? Have you done a lot of rollouts by hand?

By playing it or something like it out literally thousands of times.

The score (after 0 games) is: White 0, Blue 0

Move number 6: Blue on roll, cube decision?

White	21
Blue	315
