>Joshua_Sokol: ?BEIORU H8 OUREBIs +72 72
#note luckluckluck, missed BOUVIER though to fork the board oh wait why would I want to do that well cause it's still a better play than OUREBIS
>Sam_Hollington: EIWZ 14D WIZE. +36 36
#note I never learn
>Joshua_Sokol: ADLLRSW 13G W.LL +21 93
#note If I play like Will I will win, no need to go WILD here

#note F9 SHVIT(Z)!!!!

>Sam_Hollington: BEOV N4 BEVO. +27 197
>Joshua_Sokol: DFILOUY O1 DULY +47 277
#note haha! How could you know that I had the other Y? I actually prefer OILY for 44 now that I look at this position. I don't want to hang that D out there if I can help it.--No pun intended for all of yous with the dirty minds
>Sam_Hollington: AF M3 FA +18 215
#note protecting his dear lane to the D. Why OILY is better
>Joshua_Sokol: FHINORS 10A OH +26 303
#note N10 OF for 17 is interesting. I didn't consider a play at N10 this turn, but I should have. It not only blocks the second best lane for Sam, but it also sets up a big SH play for next turn. I should have done that I think, but my next draw meant that I could do no wrong.
>Sam_Hollington: ?AENOOR 1H mAROONE. +77 292
>Joshua_Sokol: EEFINRS 2E REFINES +73 376
#note Although I was entirely convinced that DEFINERS was completely bogus. That's just an instant win, really bad to talk myself out of such a high-probability bingo
>Sam_Hollington: INT 5K TIN. +14 306
>Joshua_Sokol: AADILTX 3F TAXA +34 410
#note I do not understand the point of playing TAXI over TAXA. Literally the only way I can lose this game is getting stuck with the Q, so keeping an I for 6J QI and I7 QI looks far more reasonable. I actually wanted to draw the Q here, hence why I didn't slowplay with N1 (E)X
>Sam_Hollington: ANT 4F ANT +24 330
#note could've been worse
>Joshua_Sokol: DEILNOQ 6J QI +33 443
#note in stark contrast with many of my other games, this pre-endgame seemed intuitive; boringly simple. BUT! Quackle says otherwise. It inexplicably prefers I play 9B OLD for 15 holding the Q. Sam cannot bingo anywhere, so I guess this might be better on spread in a vacuum. But there is no way it's the right play to keep the Q, as he can stick me with it and block both spots at once in the endgame.
>Sam_Hollington: CEEMOTT E4 COMET +24 354
#note A6 MOTT(O) is the play here, prevents me from scoring big on the overlap
>Joshua_Sokol: DELNOS D4 SNED +33 476
#note -1 to DOL(M)ENS, an outplay that... you guessed it, I missed.
>Sam_Hollington: ET 12K .E.T +10 364
>Sam_Hollington: (LO) +4 368
