Dear Detlef,

Please don't forget the rollout, which is still important.  
Zen's rollout is much better than others' so far.  This 
could be the main reason of your question.

The value network introduced by the Nature paper is not perfect, 
rather represents very rough (coarse) approximation of the value 
function of 19x19 Go.  The number of possible positions is 
10^170 and is greater than 10^30 in practice, I guess.  The 
order of the number of the freedom (and the training samples) of 
the value network is 10^7 which is much much smaller than the 
number of freedom being necessary to represent the value 
function.  So, the value network only approximate rough, smooth, 
low-order part of the function.  Thus, the detal, high-order 
part of the function must be represented by the rollout.

Best,
Hideki
