#note sets up ZA not only for next turn, but likely for as many turns as I want to try for it.

#note This prolongs my massive play by setting another one up, guaranteeing me 65+ points next turn and blocking easy forking plays at B10, however this fails when Ben makes a setup I have to address (extremely rare occurrence), and also playing ZA now allows me to score over 30 points on average next turn, making my average score over two turns 102 points after ZA versus 101 points after YA(M)UN. Still, this is clearly a better play.

#note this looked to neutralize the left best long-term, but it does take an S. However, I think if I play my cards right, I can play on column L next turn and block that, or if he does it, I can play eastward and keep things closed. Still, 4J (D)EBEAK is just too many points to give up with an inferior leave that may not lead to what I desire.

#note justifying my previous move required playing even more board management. This was the only play that blocked the C and hit a triple. ABA(C)I and ABA(C)A also block but reopen the left side which is not what I was planning. The leave is horrendous here and is definitely a reason not to have played KEEN last turn. At least now his lanes are difficult to hit, but I'm well outside of the range where I want there to be any OK lanes, however difficult

#note not a great option but blocks the worst case scenario, attempts to balance my leave and perhaps clamp down on things a few turns in.

#note now I am hellbent on closing the board, and I miss two 95-point bingos and other scoring/outrunning plays on column D, but check out this board!...

#note back to huge winning chances again, most of the game I have been above 90% winning chances

>axcertypo: ?EEIOOS 10F .....IE +12 326
#note not ahead enough to try something like H1 EOSInE, but it was tempting. 11H (N)OOSE is 17 and EI? is really good for this pool, so that's probably the play. NOOSE apparently hits more bingos than BROWNIE, although BROWNIE has better recurrence. Suddenly if he drew something half-decent out of that awful pool, I'm in trouble.

>axcertypo: ?EOOPSU 6A POU. +8 334
#note very tempted by OPErOUS here at M7, and Ben might have had no choice but to accept given his next rack.
I got brownie points for my last move, but all I got from this was a protrusion of the lips. An airwave.
