>Mike_Frentz: ORSTUWZ 8G WUZ +30 30
>Charles_Reinke: ACILNOT 9I ANTIC +23 23
#note I didn't like the closed board after 9F COTAN. This keeps the W open, as insignificant as that might be. The LO leave is among the worst I could keep, though.
>Mike_Frentz: CJORSTY K7 JO.TY +30 60
>Charles_Reinke: AEHLMOO L4 MOHO +27 50
#note L7 OH(I)A is also worth consideration, but I didn't see it.
>Mike_Frentz: CDGIRSX M5 DIG +28 88
>Charles_Reinke: ?AEILLV 11D VEnIALL. +76 126
#note VILLAgE(Y)+ is cooler but not any better.
>Mike_Frentz: ACFRSSX 7F FAX +29 117
#note Better placed at 10E.
>Charles_Reinke: ?EIIKOO M9 .OOKIE +24 150
>Mike_Frentz: CEGRSSS N4 RECS +42 159
#note SECS may be better instead.
>Charles_Reinke: ?BDILTT 14J BID.T +28 178
#note Saw BrITTL(E)D, wasn't sure.
>Mike_Frentz: EGIMSST K3 GEM +30 189
#note GAMEST or AGISM on column H win the sim. Makes sense.
>Charles_Reinke: ?EILTUW 15D oUTWILE +81 259
>Mike_Frentz: AIRRSST O8 RISTRAS +83 272
>Charles_Reinke: AFHQRRS J2 FAH +28 287
>Mike_Frentz: ADNNOPT 6E NOD +20 292
#note NONA I1 (doesn't make much sense to me) and DONNA 14B (more reasonable) lead the sim. This isn't too far back though.
>Charles_Reinke: INOQRRS 5D QI +26 313
>Mike_Frentz: AEGNNPT O1 NAPE +24 316
#note PENANG I1 wins the sim handily. On this board, points are going to be hard to come by.
>Charles_Reinke: ABNORRS I3 BARN +27 340
>Mike_Frentz: EEGNNTV 9C EVENT +19 335
#note EVEN in this spot instead, or at 14A? Really, Quackle? I'm still playing this.
>Charles_Reinke: EIORSUY N1 OY +22 362
#note After this play I can usually outrun Mike. There's nowhere to bingo. D9 (V)I(V)E was also a consideration.
>Mike_Frentz: AAGLNOP 8A GAP +22 357
>Charles_Reinke: EEIRSUU D7 RE.I.ES +36 398
#note Possible bingos for Mike after this are ENLAR(G)ED, RENE(G)ADO, (G)OLDENER, and REA(S)ONED. So, 3/8. The only reasonable block of the G is (G)URU for five. I was afraid I might get outscored in the endgame since I would only be up by ten after that. Realistically, though, ten points is a lot to make up on this board, so REVIVES might be a mistake.
>Mike_Frentz: ADEELNO A8 .AOLED +9 366
#note GLEAN is the best block, but nothing wins.
>Charles_Reinke: RUU 8A ....R +10 408
>Mike_Frentz: EN 13A .EN. +10 376
>Mike_Frentz: (UU) +4 380
