#note H8 ENTWINED
>Christian_Oktavius: AENPRTT 2F TR.PTANE +64 84
#note The only playable bingo. Luckily I found it after quite desperate with homeless PATTERN
>Alexander_Gozali: ABF 1M FAB +29 140
>Christian_Oktavius: EIOSUVW 3L OW +30 114
#note Almost try OUTVIEWS*!!! But again it is stupid decision for try a bingo you are not sure, especially when you just 40-50 points behind and against top player

Quackle also rated this play BEST
>Alexander_Gozali: DEH 4J EDH +26 166
>Christian_Oktavius: EIIRSUV 9C VIRE +30 144
#note BEST also. Very very slightly above K4 DIVI for 16. My winning percentage at this moment already down to 30%
>Alexander_Gozali: EEINOSS N3 EOSINES +65 231
#note The only playable bingo for Alex, pull his winning percentage to 82%
>Christian_Oktavius: AAIRSTU O8 ATUA +20 164
#note Quackle rated AITU better than ATUA at this situation. The first time in this game I don't play best move according to quackle

Winning percentage for ATUA move : 11.98%
>Alexander_Gozali: CHMU N11 MUCH +26 257
>Christian_Oktavius: ?IIRSWZ C9 .IZIR +34 198
#note Spotted 1A WAZIRS for 56 but leaving only I with that tile left and this board will be suicidal. Alex will start to eliminate bingo line one by one, started with his MUCH. WAZIRS for 56 seems excellent play but will help him cclose the board to retain his lead. 56 points wasting goodies simply wasn't enough and good play according to strategy to keep my winning chance alive

Quackle also suggest VIZIR leave S,W blank BEST. giving me roughly 22% chance for winning, in contrast WAZIRS didn't even have spot to be in top 5 quackle choice, with winning chance just about 11%
>Alexander_Gozali: Q 10B Q. +31 288
#note Another simple and savage play
>Christian_Oktavius: ?AEPSUW 10F WE +27 225
#note 10F WUS slightly better. I forget INTENDED take S back hook.
>Alexander_Gozali: JNO 12A JO.N +38 326
>Christian_Oktavius: ?ADPSUX A12 .UDS +36 261
#note 14A AUSPEX for 78 beat this play. I was too confident that my X will score high next turn and forget to find another oppoturnity
>Alexander_Gozali: EL 11C .EL +26 352
#note Alex took my X spot
>Christian_Oktavius: ?AAAGPX O14 AX +32 293
#note BEST
>Alexander_Gozali: EILTUY 1A TUILYE +32 384
>Alexander_Gozali: EILTUY -- -32 352
#note Alex need to open over 100 points lead to save his lead, especially he knows 1 blank still unseen, as well as blocking every bingo line effectively. This move turn to be very crucial in this game.
Only TAILYE, TUILYIE, TAILZIE, TUILZIE are valid. At first, again I prefer not to challenge but still call hold. Realizing that it will be nearly impossible to win if Alex get another 30 points, the only option for me is to challenge this. It turn to be iinvalid, made him lost his leading momentum as well as pressure
>Christian_Oktavius: ?AAGLPR M6 GAP +18 311
#note M7 ALP for 23. I tend to agree with quackle This move is 3rd BEST after O1 BARP for 25 points
>Alexander_Gozali: EILTUY 6G U.ITY +10 362
#note Another try to block bingo line.
>Christian_Oktavius: ?AAILRR 13L AR. +10 321
#note Quite upset quackle only rated this set-up ove 4th BEST. Guess what this powerful software suggest best? 5J AR for 21 points, not set-upping himself for bingo, with appoximately winning percentage 41%, far higher than my ARC with only about 27%

The reason (maybe): The tile left are condusive for bingo, so creating 2 spots for bingo at once will most likely to both of us get bingo and the difference score will remain the same. Quackle also pointed out that even Alex may hold a bingo, his bingo most likely homeless if I not open the board, and point out that leaving AIRL? will still have considerable chance to bingo in last row (S in 15A), (D in 8 I) or triple word in 1A. At least it demostrate what powerful software, with perfect anagramming and vocabulary can do VS human mind.

Still, this ARC play I believe to be best except you are playing against world top player who know all bingo with perfect anagramming skill just like quackle, and you also know all 8 letters word with ARIL? and also have perfect anagramming skill

>Alexander_Gozali: LOOT 12I TOOL +12 374
#note Nah, quite obvious sign that Alex is sitting with almost bingo rack, just like probably what quackly wary of and consider not to play ARC to open 2 bingo spots in one go. I was quire sure that Alex holding another O and S at this time
>Christian_Oktavius: ?AILORY 15A .OLItARY +83 404
#note 15A SAILORLY slightly better
>Alexander_Gozali: BEGLMOS 1A GLOBES +38 412
#note This was the best Alex can do, no winning move for him
>Christian_Oktavius: AIR 14H AIR +10 414
>Christian_Oktavius: (M) +6 420
