Title: Great shift

This position was taken from one of my today's matches against 'bonehead'. I was playing red and the match was a 7-pointer.

As you see, red seems to be completely desperate, having 3 men on the bar and white has a great potential to close his 3-pt and finish red off. In GNUBG's words, white's equity and GWC are (after rolling a 6-1)

1. Cubeful 2-ply 11/4 Eq.: +1.017
90.7% 80.7% 5.2% - 9.3% 0.2% 0.0%
2-ply cubeful prune [world class]

Why did I highlighted the chances of white getting gammoned? Because IT WAS HAPPENED! and I won the match 8-2! :yes:

I have the match log and anyone interested can ask me and I will e-mail it for him. Just to show how the course of a BG match cen be turned.

regards
