Not to mention it varies WIDELY based on the boards. If we have 2 full boards, that is a LOT to calculate. It's all a toss up, if you want it to check for options, it takes longer but you do run the chance of roping out. So take that into account, is it worth roping out 5% of the time to win 5% more games? I'd say yes. The bot has gotten much faster in playing, so that offset a lot of the roping.
