This paper investigates Sequential Halving as a selection policy in the following four partially observable games: Go Fish, Lost Cities, Phantom Domineering, and Phantom Go. Additionally, H-MCTS is studied, which uses Sequential Halving at the root of the search tree, and UCB elsewhere. Experimental results reveal that H-MCTS performs the best in Go Fish, whereas its performance is on par in Lost Cities and Phantom Domineering. Sequential Halving as a flat Monte-Carlo Search appears to be the stronger technique in Phantom Go.
