Here, I hastily grabbed my back checkers and played 22/16(2), and
only then paused to think about the remaining two sixes. The DMP
play is, without question, 22/10(2). But there are gammons to be
had, and 8/2(2) 7/1(2) is a million times more gammonish than any
alternative.

1. Rollout¹ 8/2(2) 7/1(2) eq:+1.123
Player: 81.49% (G:60.00% B:0.25%)
Opponent: 18.51% (G:2.71% B:0.12%)
Confidence: ±0.007 (+1.116..+1.130) - [100.0%]

2. Rollout¹ 22/10(2) eq:+0.995 (-0.128)
Player: 90.33% (G:22.84% B:0.09%)
Opponent: 9.67% (G:0.60% B:0.03%)

3. Rollout¹ 22/16(2) 8/2(2) eq:+0.974 (-0.149)
