In Response To: jacoby RO in progress (RolldUpTrips)

There's a way to run a rollout where you force the bot to look at both double and no-double on the next roll. Before I believe the significant discrepancy seen here I'd want that kind of rollout (for both Jacoby and No Jacoby). It may be real, but:

What counts is not what sounds plausible, not what we would like to believe, not what one or two witnesses claim, but only what is supported by hard evidence rigorously and skeptically examined. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. -- Carl Sagan
