One exercise you cold do with Gabriel is to put all 15 checkers on our respective 12-points, and then roll a pair of dice that you will both play. (on XG I guess you just manually enter the same number each turn. You play the bear-in optimally, and you have gabriel dump checkers on his ace-point.

What will happen is that fairly quickly, before you even get to the bearoff, he'll go "Well, that's just silly, of course I wouldn't play 6/1 with a 5 when I can bring a check home, to which you say "Oh, really? Why not?"

"Are you trying to say your play is less efficient?"
