Compared to the previous position, X's back checkers are better
poised to jump over O's prime, but O has entered one checker from
the bar. Entering a checker is huge. The rollout verdict here is
big double, big take.

Analyzed in Rollout
No double
Player Winning Chances: 61.40% (G:41.34% B:0.56%)
Opponent Winning Chances: 38.60% (G:8.63% B:0.41%)
Double/Take
Player Winning Chances: 61.64% (G:41.51% B:0.52%)
Opponent Winning Chances: 38.36% (G:8.74% B:0.41%)

Cubeful Equities:
No double: +0.569 (-0.208)
Double/Take: +0.777
Double/Pass: +1.000 (+0.223)

Best Cube action: Double / Take

Rollout:
1296 Games rolled with Variance Reduction.

Confidence No Double: ± 0.015 (+0.554..+0.584)
