Weird position and the additional question is...

Clear pass. Black has 7 dead checkers. How does he expect to win this game? By keeping White dancing as he scoots all four checkers home? Not likely. White will enter easily, whereas a return hit by White has Black immediately facing a strong 4-point board.

The bot shouldn't have too much trouble. A lot of the play is tactical, hitting blots or preparing to hit blots. White isn't going to be rolling a prime, and even difficult trapping plays don't seem likely to arise too often. I might do a 4-ply rollout rather than a 3-ply rollout here, though, if you have the computer resources available.
