>Benjy: HLOY 8G HOLY +20 20
>Will: ?AAGIKS 9B KAInGAS +71 71
#note Way out of my probability range, but fortunately it's a hook on a 5 that I have played in boggle frequently
>Benjy: ANW 7F AWN +26 46
>Will: ABDILSU 6D DUB +22 93
>Benjy: NOSTU 10C SNOUT +27 73
>Will: AFIILOS D8 F..IAL +26 119
#note S isn't quite good enough on this board to prioritize the AILS leave of FIDO.
>Benjy: AENO 5D EOAN +20 93
>Will: DIILOOS 6H OLIO +10 129
#note Big tank on this move. I really need to suck it up and play 4A DIOL here. 4A is a really nice scoring spot, so blocking it has a lot of value even if I get whacked with a 9x very infrequently.
>Benjy: EINZ 4A ZEIN +54 147
>Will: DIPSTUY A1 DIT.Y +54 183
#note YUTZ was very tempting.
>Benjy: IQ 5J QI +37 184
>Will: DDIIPSU B2 DI. +16 199
#note This play looks so horrid, but it was the least awful option I could find. E9 NODI looks all right as well, though Quackle wants me to keep the FINIAL letters open for bingos - not my first instinct with a DIPSU leave.
>Benjy: EHR 11C H.RE +28 212
>Will: DEIIPSU 13B PU.I +12 211
#note Really do not want to blow it up with UPSIDE here.
>Benjy: AGO 4K GOA +12 224
>Will: DEEIRSV M2 RE.DVISE +78 289
#note This is #, felt I had a nice shot at getting 5 more, but Benjy did not bite. Unfortunately phony P hooking it will almost never work in 5 point.
>Benjy: AX 8M .AX +30 254
>Will: CENPRRT L9 PERC +20 309
#note Pivotal move here. I really thought this was great defensively but apparently my other candidate moves like N7 NARC/TARP somehow stop bingos better, and N1 CERT is also better. Somehow, despite blocking a pretty good 7s lane, PERC yields a few more bingos than NARC - probably because NARC blocks the lane almost exactly as well (very difficult to front hook ER with this pool) and blocks the A conclusively, at a cost of setting up NARCS and NARCO plays that often play on row 14 already. Keeping the vowel also is a great way to prevent the sort of sequence that occurred in this game.
