Here's the one in _World Class Backgammon, Move by Move_ by
Roy Friedman. He assumes something like 35% gammons.

1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: 9:
1: 50 66 75 80 83 87 89 92 94
2: 34 50 59 64 72 77 82 85 88
3: 25 41 50 56 63 69 74 78 82
4: 20 36 44 50 57 63 68 72 77
5: 17 28 37 43 50 56 62 66 71
6: 13 23 31 37 44 50 56 60 65
7: 10 18 26 32 38 44 50 55 60
8: 8 15 22 28 34 40 45 50 55
9: 6 12 18 23 29 35 40 45 50

The numbers on the left and top are number of points needed by each
player, and the values in the chart are percentage of match wins.

I have a number of equity charts, and I'd like to clarify which ones
are which. I'm also thinking of trying to get all the people who have
done charts in the past to repost them, with another decimal place.
This would be people like Danny Kleinman of Los Angeles, Bill Robertie
of Boston, Bob Floyd (actually, I have his chart with .xx values), and
I'd bet Paul Magriel has his own little values squirreled away
somewhere.
