Lucky finish

[Timothy Chow]

It's common for people to complain about bots getting lucky rolls.
In the position below, I was playing O against XG as X. I won this
game by rolling 4 doublets in a row.

Sadly, after getting a free drop in the next game, I lost at DMP.

...
It's actually far more common for bots to complain about people getting
lucky rolls.
But no one knows about the bot complaints (except me) because they complain
in secret.

I take it that you, for one, welcome our new bot overlords.
