>Dan_Blake: LNV 14J V.LN +15 172
#note Dan told me he didn't think of S(PRIG) until after he played PRIG, which explains why he didn't have an S here for V(U)LNS.
>Bnjy: ABGNOQU L7 QUAG +26 177
#note Interesting spot here! The top plays are GOBAN/BOGAN at G1, QUAG at 9A, BONG at L7 and this. The plays are close enough equity-wise that the best play depends on whether you think Dan has an S or not (prig indicates he does, vuln indicates he doesn't.) If you think he has an S then QUAG A9 is a good option. If you think he doesn't, then GOBAN is a good option because you'll score a ton if you draw an S to go with QU. I never considered not playing my Q, but given a do-over i'd probably play GOBAN. I also think this QUAG is worse than the one at 9A, S or not.
>Dan_Blake: DEERSTW A7 WRESTED +94 266
#note He said he drew the S here. Well this is bad.
>Bnjy: BENNNOS N9 BONNES +36 213
#note Quackle prefers bones by about a point.
>Dan_Blake: AEOOZ O8 ZOOEA +56 322
>Bnjy: ALLNOOR B12 ROLL +13 226
#note (P)ALOLO# B10 is better. Didn't know it. Either way things look pretty bad.
>Dan_Blake: AMU 15A A.UM +27 349
>Bnjy: ?ACNOPX L12 CA.X +54 280
#note Alright step 1 complete :P
>Dan_Blake: AUW C7 WAU. +12 361
>Bnjy: ?INOPTT D2 aNTIPOT +76 356
>Bnjy: ?AIR (challenge) +5 361
#note NOOOOOOOO BNJY DON'T BINGO HERE!!!!!

WAU(R) indicates a poor leave, so If i play a 3 letter word at M6 (TIT sims best, TIN is a close second) and I draw the other blank, then I have a very good chance of bingoing out. Quackle puts antipot without the challenge at 5% to win, and tit/tin at around 17%. Clear mistake here.
>Dan_Blake: AEHNSTY 2I YA.HTS +32 393
#note He had shantey anyways so I wasn't winning. E2 HYENAS is best, but this gets the job done just fine.
>Bnjy: ?AIR 15A ....InAR +27 388
#note Oh well, if you can't beat em', milk their spread!
>Bnjy: (EN) +4 392
