>Jackson_Smylie: DINNOTW H8 INDOW +26 26
#note INTOWN is also good
>Karl_Higby: ?AEENPU 10F PU. +12 12
>Jackson_Smylie: EMNOOTX 11D OXO +24 50
#note should play WO/OX here - increases my bingo % and doesn't give as many scores back. he is close to a bingo but there are two S hooks open and I should try to make the board more favourable to my leave, which OX does well. METO(P)ON is actually really interesting because it limits the value of his S here - he'll still have lanes but they are lower scoring
>Karl_Higby: ADIT 12C ADIT +30 42
>Jackson_Smylie: EEEEMNT 13B EME +22 72
#note also thought about EME(U), but now ADIT seems to lean away from him having an S, and PUD could easily keep non-S bingo leaves. also, if he does have hooks to EME, they aren't in the best spot for him to score lots of points, so it seems better to take the points.
>Karl_Higby: ADEZ A12 ADZE +52 94
>Jackson_Smylie: EENNNRT 8G N.NE +4 76
#note didn't like INN very much because I have to bingo with an S or through an N, which both aren't good for my leave. NINE sets up my R, which is good but there are also 5 Rs and 4 Ss out. I also set up a marginal lane on the 7 row, so it felt like nine just makes my leave way more powerful.
>Karl_Higby: AHI 7I AHI +15 109
>Jackson_Smylie: EEGJNRT 6F JEER +30 106
#note I overdrew, he threw back the H from GHJ
>Karl_Higby: TU K5 TU. +6 115
>Jackson_Smylie: EGINSTU 4F GUNITES +72 178
#note meep. I miss (E)UGENIST. can anyone tell me this is a better play to take out his main bingo spot he opened? I think there is a chance that if I see eugenist I still play gunites because it makes it really hard to bingo if you don't start with an S, rather than hit a really easy etui spot. with EIRS specified Q still prefers eugenist so it's hard to say. it even prefers eugenist with EINRT specified, which is one of the most EUGENIST favouring leaves. apparently he still bingoes over a quarter of the time after gunites so maybe etui isn't as big of a spot as I thought.
>Karl_Higby: EW J2 WE. +14 129
>Jackson_Smylie: EFLORRT 7C FETOR +26 204
#note maybe a bad idea to se up the E lane here, but I also don't mind having this new scoring spot here in case he bingoes so that I can keep my lead. FOR still makes a scoring spot, though less of one, but doesn't give the lane. I think FOR is the better idea here
>Karl_Higby: AEIINST 13G ISATINE +78 207
>Jackson_Smylie: FGKLRYY D4 FYK. +28 232
#note maybe FLYER actually, with an A draw I get KYA(R) 8a, and it also doesn't give up an S hook for scoring plays. they're close in a sim.
>Karl_Higby: AHL 12K LAH +23 230
>Jackson_Smylie: ADEGLRY 10F ...GY +20 252
#note felt very lost on this turn, and I felt like I get in this type of position a lot. LAH screams an S or blank or something good, but I can't do much about it. I could do a two turn block like YAG/HEY, setting up LAHS blocks. keeping ADELR is kind of useless because it's rare that I will be able to respond to his bingo with it. I guess if he bingoes at N6 I can occasionally hit something back, but I'd still rather try to either reach for blanks or attempt some sort of block. would anyone play YAG? PUDGY seems like I'm just waiting out my doom, but I didn't see any way out of my doom!
>Karl_Higby: ??ACLOV 15A .VOCAbLe +92 322
>Jackson_Smylie: ADELRRU - +0 252
>Karl_Higby: ABBCORS 8A OCAS +42 364

>Karl_Higby: IQ C3 QI +27 391
>Jackson_Smylie: AABELRS A3 BRESA.LA +61 328
#note thought ARABLES was phony. I should play it anyways cause it's my only chance of winning, since there are no LAH hooks out!
>Karl_Higby: EOPR 1D PORE. +11 402
>Jackson_Smylie: BGIILMN 14K BING +28 356
#note (LI)MB is actually one point better because I set up LI(M)ING which he has to block!
>Karl_Higby: ORTV 10A .VO +14 416
>Jackson_Smylie: ILM L1 MIL. +9 365
