>Eloy_Gardea: AGINP 4H .APING +32 32
>Matt_Canik: IKLORTT 9G TRIOL +22 66
#note I saw LIROT but wasn't sure it took an S. I don't like setting up hooks I don't know. I decided not to play TROT or TORT here for some reason I just can't remember.
>Eloy_Gardea: ?ADEEEZ 6D ADZE. +36 68
>Matt_Canik: KNNOOPT 5K NOOK +25 91
#note I completely spaced on the Y- hook this may have taken. After I hit the clock, I was like "oh damn, NOOKY might be a word and I have no idea at all." Q likes he dangerous NNOT leave with KOP 3I
>Eloy_Gardea: ?EEIIIO -EIIO +0 68

>Eloy_Gardea: ?EHINVV D3 VIV. +20 88
>Matt_Canik: EEIMRRT 11E TERRI.E +28 140
#note Really tough to blow up a bingoey rack like this one, but I think I need to. Short sim agrees.
>Eloy_Gardea: ?BEHNOT 3I HOB +30 118
>Matt_Canik: ADMOOUY 10D MAYO +35 175
#note I immediately see DOOMY/NOOKY and just can't pull the trigger on NOOKY!!!!! BAD BAD BAD
>Eloy_Gardea: ??AEENT O3 EAsTErN +76 194
#note nEATENs 12D is so beautiful
>Matt_Canik: ADELOUY H11 .OYAL +27 202

>Eloy_Gardea: IQ 4A QI +26 282
>Matt_Canik: ANRRSST 12J SNA. +24 322
#note It's just silly to fish here. I need all the points I can get - if he bingos I'm sunk either way. But T(O)RS/(TOR)T(E) is so nice.
>Eloy_Gardea: CDU N1 CUD +15 297
>Matt_Canik: AERRRST D12 A.R +6 328
#note Quackle is literally the worst scrabble player in the world and suggests I play TR(OP) here.

I feel I HAVE to block the X play at 12D. I hold AIRS/AIRT and will score enough to win this game next turn. It's so counterintuitive, but I'm pretty sure this is the right thing to do. Thanks for the help, Quackle.

Thoughts?
