>Jackson_Smylie: DEIMOTU H8 ODIUM +22 22
#note ODIUM surely has the best equity here, and there's a chance Steve misses podium and sodium, and may not know odium takes an S. I think this is my first time opening vertically ever.
>Steve_Ozorio: EGIORSV 11B GREVIO.S +74 74
>Steve_Ozorio: EGIORSV -- -74 0
>Jackson_Smylie: EEHNNOT G11 NOH +16 38
#note Many options here - NONHE(M)E is a cool word I didn't know. NEON G8 leave him with very few options. HEN I11 looks good, although it creates a lane below that I don't want to worry about. I can't trust the sim, since when I specify his rack, it has Steve making the best equity play.
>Steve_Ozorio: EGIORSV 11F G.. +4 4
>Jackson_Smylie: CEELNPT 7E CLEPT +22 60
#note PLENC(H) is a cool word. I know he is holding EIORSV, so I like blocking SODIUM, and maybe baiting him into playing CLEPTS or NOHS? I don't think it's likely he'd play those, though.
>Steve_Ozorio: AEIORSV E3 VARI.OSE +76 80
>Jackson_Smylie: AAEENOZ D4 ZOA +50 110
>Steve_Ozorio: ?EEILNU 3E .EINULEs +62 142
>Jackson_Smylie: ADEEILN 6I ALIENED +64 174
>Steve_Ozorio: EFIW O2 WIFE. +16 158
>Jackson_Smylie: ABDEJSX D8 JADES +64 238
#note BX will score a lot next turn, it's a good leave. This is a perfect rack to have on this board.
>Steve_Ozorio: EIW L1 WI.E +20 178
>Jackson_Smylie: BCEORTX N1 BOX +43 281
>Steve_Ozorio: EHMRTTT -EHMR +0 178
>Jackson_Smylie: AACEORT H1 CA.OE +24 305
>Steve_Ozorio: ?EIORTT 1A TOREeTI. +80 258
>Steve_Ozorio: ?EIORTT -- -80 178
#note Steve misdesignated the blank. sorry :(
>Jackson_Smylie: AANRSTY 14A YANTRAS +81 386
>Jackson_Smylie: AANRSTY -- -81 305
#note This was a very ridiculous play, there is absolutely no reason to phoney here. My thought process at the time was that Steve might think if he challenges and it's good, I could block toreutic next turn and surely win, so he would just take toreutic now. But in reality he knows NOH doesn't take an S. This is a really unnecessary risk to take, when I can play AY(E)S F1, block his best bingo, and still be in the lead if he bingoes again. Sometimes I need to take a step back from the game board and not be greedy, and not let any frustrations with a no-go affect the play I make.
>Steve_Ozorio: ?EIORTT 1A TOREuTI. +80 258
>Jackson_Smylie: AANRSTY 2A AY +22 327
#note F11 (G)RAY is a nice play, since there is just one more S in the pool.
>Steve_Ozorio: AKU C12 AUK +16 274
>Jackson_Smylie: ANPRSTT 15A PAST +29 356
>Steve_Ozorio: GHU B10 HUG +19 293
>Jackson_Smylie: ABMNRTT A8 TRAM +27 383
#note When I played JADES, I noted the possibility of BANJO in my head, and of course miss it when it comes up!
>Steve_Ozorio: FGIIQRY K5 Q. +22 315
>Jackson_Smylie: BGINNRT G5 BR.N +12 395
>Steve_Ozorio: FIORRVY L6 .NROLERS +68 383
>Steve_Ozorio: FIORRVY -- -68 315
>Jackson_Smylie: DFGIINT M4 FI.DING +20 415
#note I'm going to draw VY, so FINDING sets up T(I)VY, and leaves IVY 10H.
>Steve_Ozorio: ELNORRS 11J ERNS +21 336
>Jackson_Smylie: TVY 8L T.VY +33 448
>Jackson_Smylie: (LOR) +6 454
