When GNU-bg reports a cube rollout result it shows (I believe) the
cubeless equity as calculated from the s/g/bg report of the no-double

from the take branch, since (presumably) the number of dicerolls in
that path is typically larger (and thus less susceptible to pure
evaluation)?


It sounds reasonable, at least for money games. I suggest a couple of
(10) test cases to see if at makes any difference. But, in general I
don't look much at the cubeless equties, nor at the s/g/bg breakdown,
since I often find that they make little sense, except where two very
different moves result in the same cubefull equity.
