Many Faces' life and death search is best first and probability based, but I don't use UCT to select moves. I select the move that has the highest probability of changing the value of the root (from success to fail or vice versa). I don't use MC to evaluate the endpoints. I look forward down one line until the result is clear (alive or dead), but I follow the best move from the move generator, not random moves.
