#note did not know if ENTOGENY* or ONTOGENY were words!!! My GHEE play was supposed to reward me with a 3x3. I also had T(W)OpENNY E7. Time to look at more annotated games to find words like ONTOGENY... :(

#note so few vowels left, he definitely has at least one, most likely two of them, and he might have drawn one or two. I don't think BO(T)A(N)Y is the way to go given his previous turn. S(T)O(N)ILY was missed, even though each turn I took a good look at the 2x2. This was just an inference-specific play, but not good enough to outdo S(T)O(N)ILY. This was held and released.
>Wes_Eddings: CES H12 CE.S +27 313
#note he only had one vowel when he exchanged (probably bad exchange in that case).
>Josh: AIRSTUV B1 VIS +21 350
#note very interesting position here. I'm likely to draw the Q down the line, so I want to leave myself with spots to play it, but I also don't want to let Wes fish/bingo on this board, so it's difficult because I can't really ensure I can play my Q and block a lot of bingos all at once. The closest thing to doing that is B1 VIS or B9 VIRTU(AL), both of which block bingos and set up a spot for the Q that's difficult for Wes to reasonably decide to block. VITRU(AL) loses to a lot of bingos with the C in CELS, and VIS protects better against those. However, drawing the Q isn't a given, and I might get outscored if I keep sacrificing points to hope for the Q. Note that COLBYS is a word and I can definitely play VIRUS or VARUS there this turn, and those plays also set up a spot for the Q, that's more likely to get blocked.
>Wes_Eddings: DJLNPRT - +0 313
#note Wes's options are very poor here, and he allots to challenge S(TONEY)
>Josh: AEPQRTU J10 QUER. +37 387
#note he is overtime at this point
>Wes_Eddings: DJLNPRT 11I J.N +20 333
>Josh: AAIPRST 1A A.A +18 405
#note I was also low on time and didn't think of ways to score nicely. Also mistracked and didn't know he had no vowels.
>Wes_Eddings: DLPRT 4K P..T +6 339
#note -8
>Josh: IPRST C8 STRIP +13 418
#note should slowplay him with 9F (I)TS
>Josh: (DLR) +8 426
