Volume 3 Hugh Sconyers BEAROFF EQUITIES 6 POINTS & 10 MEN

Volume 3: Bearoff Equities for 6 Points and 10 Men

This CD-ROM disk contains a database of equities for the bearoff. The database has the exact equities for all bearoff positions where one side has 10 men in the home board and the other side has 10 men or less in the home board.

This bearoff database is over 625 MB and contains the answers to over 156,000,000 bearoff problems for all four cube positions! In addition, you can do a Monte Carlo simulation for any bearoff position where one or both sides have more than 10 men. The results of these simulations will be more accurate than the results from Volume #1 (Bearoff Equities & Backgame Probabilities). The program also has a feature which finds the best move given a specific position and dice roll. You will need Volume #1 to use the Monte Carlo feature and you may need Volume #1 for the best-move feature.

Another feature finds the "closest position" for the side on roll. The "closest position" would be the position your opponent would have to be the smallest favorite and smallest underdog for each cube position.

The database on this CD-ROM will help answer many questions about fair settlement and the best moves. Just as importantly, it will help you to significantly improve your game!

The latest interface is available here.
