After a closer look, things are clearer.  If the dice haven't been 
shaken, the position is evaluated (from the current players 
perspective).  If the dice have been shaken the best (0-ply) move is 
made and then the position evaluated (from the other players perspective).

Clearly the code above in my previous email only applies if the dice 
haven't been rolled a different calculation is needed for the case with 
the dice rolled.
