#player2 Charles_Reinke Charles Reinke
>Steve_Hartsman: AVW H7 VAW +18 18
>Charles_Reinke: ACDEEGS I9 EGAD +13 13
#note I8 GED forks the board better and doesn't recklessly open up a TWS. Good start!
>Steve_Hartsman: NOR J9 NOR +18 36
>Charles_Reinke: ACEEMNS 13C MENACES +88 101
>Steve_Hartsman: ENNOT 14B TENON +26 62
>Charles_Reinke: ?AEIIOP 15F EPInAOI +80 181
>Steve_Hartsman: DGIL 15A GILD +37 99
>Charles_Reinke: AEEEOST K9 TOEA +25 206
>Steve_Hartsman: UX L12 XU +36 135
>Charles_Reinke: ADEEPSV M10 VEEP +36 242
#note M9 PAVES would leave the board open, but there's no reason to when I'm going up by over 100.
>Steve_Hartsman: EE 7G E.E +8 143
>Charles_Reinke: ADFLSSU 6I FAULDS +19 261
#note Making this play vertically at J2 might be better, but this is at least more defensive.
>Steve_Hartsman: M D12 M... +14 157
>Charles_Reinke: AEILRSU G10 URI. +6 267
#note More defense. AELS could work out well if I draw some I's, R's, and T's.
>Steve_Hartsman: DEHIR 11A HIRED +26 183
>Charles_Reinke: AELLORS N12 LO +18 285
>Steve_Hartsman: Q B10 Q. +31 214
>Charles_Reinke: AEILRST 6A SLATIER +63 348
#note Or N1 REALI(S)TS. For triple-triple considerations, I figured the S in the sixth spot to be harder to use than an R in the seventh spot. However, with no E's in the bag, the R is actually not a huge risk.
>Steve_Hartsman: ?AGINOS A1 AGONI.eS +131 345
>Charles_Reinke: BBCJKRZ E5 J.BB +30 378
#note This rack isn't as bad as it looks, since I also have at least 31 points for the Z in the future.
>Steve_Hartsman: ANOWY 2A .OWANY +42 387
#note After being in control from the word "go", all of a sudden the game is a tossup.
>Charles_Reinke: CKORUYZ N2 ZOUK. +36 414
#note I held GOWANY for a long time until I saw this play.
>Steve_Hartsman: FHIRTTT D1 H.FT +28 415
#note Steve can get pretty close to a win if he plays D1 F(A)RT threatening L4 TI(L)TH. If he does that, I have to block with K4 CRU or M7 DRY to ensure that I have enough points in the endgame.
>Charles_Reinke: CIRY 3M C.Y +16 430
>Steve_Hartsman: IRTT 7G ...RT +12 427
>Charles_Reinke: IR I4 RI.. +7 437
