Peter Hatch asks 'white or black have the advantage'?

That's a good question, and it would explain why Black, in the opening
position I analyzed, always seemed to spring back when I thought he was
crushed. (Even tho W did win a bit...)

If knowing the opponent's cards gives an advantage (and it must), of
course the advantage increases with smaller wipeout limits.
