Player 1
#player1 JD JD
#player2 Sid_Murali Sid Murali
>JD: ?NNNRTY -NNNY +0 0
#note an interesting sim results with RTY? and NRTY? both overtaking RT?, even with opponent pass - bingo percentage is lower, but the bingos are worth more to make up for it.
>Sid_Murali: AEEEILO -?DGJO +0 0
#note I've updated my racks and I will leave commentary to a minimum :)
>JD: ?AENRTW 8C TWANgER +76 76
>Sid_Murali: EHLOSVZ E7 H.ZEL +34 34
>JD: EGIKNOO 9C OO.E +24 100
>Sid_Murali: BFMOOSV 12A BOOMS +42 76
>JD: AEGIKNT I8 .ETAKING +65 165
>Sid_Murali: CEFFLLV 11H C.FF +24 100
>JD: EGNRRRT 13H R.NGER +14 179
#note giving up a lot of points for an improved leave - BRRR is an intermediate option and GREET is the greedy one. I'm fine with this play
>Sid_Murali: CELLLUV B10 CL.VE +32 132
#note sid told me his rack but I forget
>JD: DINRSTV L12 V.ND +20 199
#note missed VINED for many more points, leave is fine w/many vowels left
>Sid_Murali: ILLOORU 15L .OUR +15 147
>JD: IIJRSTY 15G JI. +33 232
#note saving IVY for next turn
>Sid_Murali: IIILOOQ -EGIMOPU +0 147
>JD: IIRSTUY 13A I.Y +32 264
>Sid_Murali: BDGHOOU F6 BO..D +30 177
>JD: IRSTUUX 15A URUS +26 290
#note saving the X as nice insurance if he opens the board with a bingo
>Sid_Murali: AGHOQSU J2 QUAHOGS +102 279
>JD: EIILLTX K4 LEX +41 331
#note with 4 Is remaining quackle massively prefers ILEX at 10K, and deservedly so.
>Sid_Murali: AEIIMTW L1 WAIT +28 307
>JD: ?ADIILT H1 DILATIv. +77 408
>Sid_Murali: AAEIMPT 1L .IMP +33 340
>JD: AAEEEIN 2N AE +16 424
#note I saw MEANIE, but it seemed like I could lose to an 80-point-ish bingo and then an out with two tiles, or to a bingo to the D. the downside of AE is that I give him an extra turn to fish after a bingo. In retrospect, I think I like MEANIE for max win percentage.
>Sid_Murali: AAEINTY 12G YA. +17 357
>JD: ADEEINR 14N NE +10 434
#note a simple improvement here would be to play NA to prevent 9s ending in -ER. on the other hand, I am up enough that playing TEE to outrun would probably win me the game no matter what he bingos with, but then maybe he could fish for a win.
>Sid_Murali: AEINOPT 10I .O +11 368
#note I should just play ANTIPODE
>JD: ADEEIRS 12L .IE +8 442
#note umm, this is the worst play ever. I was prepared to block PATIENTER but didn't even look for a bingo of my own (lol).
>Sid_Murali: AEINPTT G2 TAPE +18 386
#note unfortunately, the director, sid and I were all not aware of the rule change from this year that allowed sid to challenge after more than 20 seconds had passed...and so this play stayed.
>JD: ADERS O8 RASED +34 476
>JD: (INT) +6 482
