>Arie_Sinke: BEHNRTZ -Z +0 0
>Jackson: EILOSSY H7 YO +10 10
>Arie_Sinke: ?ADEGIN 8H .rGANDIE +80 80
>Jackson: EEILRSS K6 RE.LISES +66 76
#note REINLESS is definitely better cause it doesn't create the big scoring spot. the S placement is unideal but he has a random rack and bingoes are unlikely. couldn't see anything besides realises.

opp averages over 6 more, and I average only 2.5 more
>Arie_Sinke: IPT J10 PIT +25 105
>Jackson: DHIIJQR O7 J.RID +13 89
#note this was a very tough turn - I think this is definitely not worth it regularly, but I feel like Arie won't sacrifice to block this opening. it is deducible that I have the Q cause I have JIRD available, but only a few players will think about that. this also may just not be worth it because PIT doesn't speak to his range very much, and I'm just opening a big scoring spot on an otherwise mediocre board for scoring.

I actually trust a quackle sim here because I think arie will play somewhat similarly to quackle, and quackle loves this play. that surprises me - opp. only averages about a point more after JERID, which I find surprising (probably because his bingo percentage goes down with JERID). Given these sim results, I think this play is actually fine.
>Arie_Sinke: CGHLSTT 12J ..TCH +20 125
#note damnit this is phony! TITCH and TENCH!!!
>Jackson: EHIIIQT 10N Q. +31 120
#note interesting that Q values IIIQT 1.5 better than EHIIIT. On this board I doubt it though

I just needed to challenge tetch arghhhhh
>Arie_Sinke: BEGLOST -BEGLO +0 125
>Jackson: EHIIILT 11E ILEIT.. +14 134
>Arie_Sinke: BERRSTU 12A BURSTER +80 205
>Arie_Sinke: BERRSTU -- -80 125
>Jackson: ADEHISW 9F HAW +19 153
#note terrible play! DISHWA(r)E is 73, allowing BURSTER for 71. HAW above ILEITIS is 25, allowing probably RUB for 18 - I think I like the DISHWARE sequence better, cause I get more scoring spots, and DEIS doesn't seem great for hitting the HAW hook, compared to ERST he'll have. Either way it's still a big oversight to miss the better placement
>Arie_Sinke: BERRSTU G5 RUB +18 143
#note also HAW allows him to play BURSTIER......
>Jackson: ?DEFIRS E3 FRIEnDS +80 233
#note don't wanna play FRISkED or REDFInS (missed frisked) cause taking out the SHAW hook is great for the board
>Arie_Sinke: DEGRSTU 4D T.UDGERS +81 224
#note plays for 83 making SHAWS
>Jackson: AEELPTW 8A PAWE. +36 269
#note WEEP maybe, making PSHAW? 3 points fewer and ALT is worse (especially cause pool is A heavy), but I do have a lead that is defendable here. PAWED is probably better
>Arie_Sinke: AEVV J2 VA.VE +25 249
>Jackson: BELMNOT B6 BO.TMEN +23 292
#note didn't like TOMBE(D) cause don't wanna keep an N with 4 in the pool (also ln is gross). BONG over BLOG for the same reason. With my lead I would rather take out one spot than 0, so BONG is not great. elmt also doesn't hit too often.
quackle hates BOATMEN, preferring blog/bong. my problem with boatmen is that some scoring plays I open up could get him back into the game, but once that spot is taken I'll have a pretty decent lead on a board that isn't very open. not sure what's right here
>Arie_Sinke: ACNOOR A1 CORONA +31 280
>Jackson: EFILOTY A11 FOLEY +44 336
>Arie_Sinke: AILNNOX N12 .OAX +28 308
>Jackson: EEIMNTU O13 EMU +48 384
#note MINUETE(D) is a word. doesn't even look familiar....
>Arie_Sinke: ANOZ C10 AZON +48 356
>Jackson: AEIIKNT H1 KIN. +27 411
#note at least this is the best endgame!
>Arie_Sinke: AGLNOU F9 .U.LOA +13 369
#note VULGO is 10 better
>Jackson: AEIT 2J .ITAE +16 427
#note terribly played game - huge mistakes of not challenging tetch, missing DISHWARE and MINUETED
>Jackson: (GN) +6 433
