Largest bot misevaluation

In Response To: $ Cube Action? (Petter Bengtsson)

Oh! I did commit a transgression, then. It's only one roll, so the proper 54 play won't affect the redouble / no redouble line much, but sincere thanks for the correction :)

Question for all: In Michael's diagram at the beginning of this thread, if there is no redouble, Snowie's 3-ply evaluation believes that covering the 1pt with 54 is better than running by .149. And Petter reports that XG's higher ply evaluations say running is better (I don't know by how much, but it might be a lot). What are some of the biggest bot misevaluations discovered in a relatively simple backgammon position? (Let's say no creeping or outside prime and not more than two checkers back on either side.)

                  • Two categories: (a) checker play, (b) cube
