I Ohaganized this based on the juicy hits, but I was completelyAlthough a preliminary rollout shows that the double is a whopper,
unsurprised by XG's hold verdict. I'm a favourite to hit so
I have tons of market losers but I think my problem is that
my misses are worse than I thought they were. Maybe missing
is about as good for XG as hitting is for me. So being a mild
favourite to hit is no reason to annoy the neighbours by
cranking up Irene Cara's hit song "Flashdance ... What a Feeling" at
full volume.

eXtreme Gammon Version: 2.10The opponent being a favorite to enter immediately when hit and you having little ammo to continue the attack are large factors. I think you may be overestimating the amount of market losing sequences you have. You have to hit and the opponent has to

I did actually realise that hit-fan doesn't lose the market, but I accept that my post might have hyperbolically
overstated this factor. All the 6s work which is 17 numbers. We add 52 and 34 to get 21 numbers. The dancing
probability is 4/9. This gives a market-losing probability of 26% (I did this accurately without a calculator in just
a second or two -- I'm ultra-good in mental arithmetic but weaker than Tim in backgammon.)
So we cross the O'Hagan threshold by a very small margin.
Clearly we have to adjust for the fact that our misses are bad rather than neutral, but I didn't do this.
So I think that, with more patience and more time, I could have OHaganized correctly. I'll do better next time.
