#player1 Dan Dan
#player2 Taiwo Taiwo
>Dan: AEEFISS H7 FIE +12 12
#note FEASE is best.
>Taiwo: DIV 10F VID +23 23
>Taiwo: DIV -- -23 0
>Dan: ?AEOOSS 7E SEA.OOdS +62 74
>Taiwo: DGIOV 6J GIO +18 18
>Dan: AKPSTUX I9 XU +34 108
#note Didn't know UPTAK 5G, didn't see KAPUT 8A. Both value slightly higher, but XU is 4th. I was so focused on hitting that X, I didn't look around much.
>Taiwo: DIMV 5K VIM +29 47
>Dan: AKPQSTT G6 T.SK +34 142
#note PATKA G6 is better, but again, I didn't know it. I do now.
>Taiwo: DHNU J10 HUN +27 74
>Dan: AAEOPQT 12H QA.AT +48 190
#note Aside from the 2 Ss and a blank already, here's where the tiles turn sharply in my favor.

>Taiwo: DHN K11 H.N +22 96
>Dan: DEOOPRT 14E TROOPED +72 262
#note Slightly less valued than TORPEDO 14F and marginally lower win% than DOORSTEP E3, but still not bad.
>Taiwo: DDI 15H DID +31 127
>Dan: AEIRSTW E5 WA.TRIES +94 356
>Dan: DJNRRVW (challenge) +5 361
#note E4 WAISTERS is valued higher, but this gets the +5.
>Taiwo: NTU D11 TUN +12 139
>Dan: DJNRRVW -RNVW +0 361
#note DAWT 6D beats a bunch of exchange options, though the best leaves appear to be NR, D, DR, or R. I kept DJR. The bag is fairly vowel-heavy, but yeah, probably no need to keep the J.

>Taiwo: EEGZ 4L GEEZ +62 201
>Dan: ABDEJNR O1 BRA.EN +51 412
#note BRAZED and ZANDER don't leave a follow-up, but I'm playing aggressively while I have the big lead. and I like JD almost as well as JN as a leave.
>Taiwo: CILL C12 CILL +21 222
#note CUS*
>Dan: ?ACDFIJ 15A CA.F +39 451
#note JAFA 6B valueates more, as is CAF 3K. Didn't see CAF, I don't think I knew JAFA. Again, not looking at the whole board, but CALF isn't bad, and scores the most.
>Taiwo: OTY D4 TOY +22 244
>Dan: ?ADIJLR C3 RAJ +35 486
#note 3K JAR, again better. I never really looked at that spot. Oh well.
>Taiwo: BEW B2 WEB +23 267
>Dan: ?DIILUY O1 ......LY +66 552
>Dan: ?ADEIIU (challenge) +5 557
#note !! Did not even consider the bingo opportunity, I was just jumping all over BRAZENLY for 66 (+5).. but 101 for UrIDYLIC.. wow. that would have been something.
>Taiwo: AGV A1 VAG +30 297
>Taiwo: IMN (challenge) +5 302
#note I wasn't 100% on GER, or, if I'm honest, VAG. I should know both cold. K3 scores 2 more.
>Dan: ?ADEIIU 8D I. +3 560
#note This is me being greedy.
>Taiwo: IMN N8 NIM +16 318
>Dan: ?ADEINU H12 .U.. +14 574
#note To even my surprise, I had the highest valued play, dropping the U in. There were a lot of bingos in the B column, which I didn't see - UNAIDEd, UrANIDE, UNAIrED, etc., but those allow out bingo replies. Also, I keep getting lucky.
>Taiwo: EOOPR O10 OOP +12 330
>Dan: ?ADEILN 2H IsLANDE. +70 644
#note ADENyLIC, if I knew it, would have been 10 more points. lots of options along row 2 and column B.
>Dan: (EEERR) +10 654
