There are some numerical noise in the evaluations of equity that show
up here. 

The logic was

if opponent's equity after resignation <= oppenent's current equity then
   accept
else
   reject

I've modified the logic to

d = opponent's equity after resignation - oppenent's current equity

if d <= 0.000001 then
   accept
else
   reject
