#note OX is worth considering, but I average so much on this open board after extrados anyways, and how often do I hit A column triple triples? sim says I make up about 60 from OX, but not the 67 needed. I'm in a great position anyways after extrados that I'd rather not risk things like triple triples

#note looks weird but the Q isn't too bad here - after kata I can get l3 qi, I can get C column plays, 11 row plays. AOW also works with the B column with WAVE, WEAVE, WAIVE type stuff. KATA wins a sim on win% but is quite a bit lower than QUOTA on valuation, about 5 points. in the sim, I average 15 more after quota and josh averages 5 more

#note for some reason really didn't like oow on this board, but I might be biased towards the Q since it's clear where my Q can play. J10, L2, C column will almost guarantee me a 30 point Q play next turn, but OOW is far more flexible, allowing me to average 2 more points.

>Jackson_Smylie: ABEOOQR A3 BO.ERO +27 378
#note considered OBO(E), BO(L)ERO, ROBA(L)O, Q(I), ROQ(U)E. missed BARQUE.

I didn't like oboe very much because playing more tiles to reach for a U or S or ? or I seemed like a good idea, and oboe blocks a QI spot. I liked BOLERO better for that reason, and with no As out I liked BOLERO over ROBALO, as well as putting the E at 6a instead of the O to prevent big tiles like the Y or P from playing. once again I felt the Q had enough power to let me block the scoring spot and play bolero. Q values bolero highest
