In the tournament setting, in your interpretation, the goal is not to maximize the (expected) number of Hahn points in each game, but to maximize the probability of having more Hahn points at the end of the tournament than your opponent(s). It would also be useful to see what is happening on the other boards during a tournament round, since it might affect your point goal. It might even be useful to spend time waiting in order to gather information from the other boards. ;-) Tapani -- Tapani Raiko, <tapani.ra...@tkk.fi>, +358 50 5225750 http://www.iki.fi/raiko/ _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
