In Response To: Rollout (Neil Robins)

All what I can tell is that even XG1 plays super-backgames better than me.

Now in order to be confident in the rollout result, it might be good to see whether XG doesn't wrongly hit on our 6 with some rolls. Because it is unusual that we would play to the ace-point straightaway in order to avoid dumping checkers on the ace-point later.

Nevertheless, the position and your analysis are very interesting, and at least you have definitely talked me from 13/10 11/6 to 11/6 8/5.
