Re: [Bug-gnubg] pubeval benchmark

[Nikos Papahristou]

My evaluations of a starting roll 3-1 are exactly the same with Mark.
Joseph, my implementation of pubeval doesn't agree with the moves
selection in the games you sent.
In the first game, the first roll of pubeval (4-5) is played as 24/15,
and in the second game the first roll (52) is played as 13/8, 13/11.
