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

Not a drop, you think? I disagree. White has a clear drop. 50/50? No way. More like 90/10. White has gammon vig? No, played correctly, White wins nearly zero gammons. If White has "nice" gammon vig -- is winning a significant number of gammons -- that's a sign that Blue is not playing well.

Only a few trials, so far, I realize

Ah ... play more, with both sides playing well ;-

You don't say whether your opponents are human or not, but on the chance that you are playing White against a bot playing Blue, let me note that just now I played one game as Blue. Gnubg 2-ply gave me a Snowie-equivalent ER of 12.88, and Gnubg 3-ply gave me a Snowie ER of 22.12. Needless to say, they're wrong.

Just one silly bot play:

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

Move number 35: Blue to play 41

White	31
Blue	205
Position ID: /z8AQAAA1rZtAA Match ID: QwkGAAAAAAAA

• Gnubg 2-ply and 3-ply would play 11/7 10/9
