>JD: DFIJKRS 8G JIRD +24 24
#note should really play JIRDS here
>Rob: LQTU H6 QU.LT +14 14
>JD: FKLSSTU 11F FUSK +26 50
#note this felt a little weird, but Q likes this or SULK at 11H
>Rob: ?EISTTY K6 TESTIfY +81 95
#note ooh tensity
>JD: AGILRST F11 .LAG +12 62
#note perhaps I don't need to do this yet, but this is suddenly a pretty anemic board on which I'm trailing by 45. rather than play GIRR for 20 with limited lanes on the board, I figured I'd play a riskier move that sets up a big threat for the next couple of turns. I can also play GYAL for 4 more points which keeps the same leave and also opens an S hook, but this is a bit more threatening.
>Rob: AEWW L3 WAWE +22 117
>JD: AIORSTU 15F SAUTOIR +83 145
>Rob: CEET M2 CETE +29 146
>JD: AEEMNOR 14J MOANER +42 187
#note I wasn't confident enough about RETESTIFY to chance it here. it's about even between my play and that on the sim.
>Rob: DGNOP 13B DOGN.P +26 172
#note he had two more consonants - still ballsy to not block column O here
>JD: AAEGILV O12 VA.A +33 220
#note now it's my turn to overvalue column O. Quackle loves VIGA at 12A. the G is an ugly tile for me to hold here, even if I pull an N.
>Rob: AFTU 13L TUF. +26 198
>JD: EGIILLY N5 YILL +18 238
#note this is a major misjudgment. The G remains bad, and I'm not being particularly defensive or anything by playing on column N. -ILY at least has some synergy if I play GLIDE (which I considered). Even better, I can throw down GELIDLY for 6 more points and dig for the X for J10, the blank or the case S
>Rob: EIR I4 REI +14 212
>JD: AEGIIOR H1 AGIO +21 259
>Rob: ADEIN O6 DIANE +29 241
>Rob: EHMNORS (challenge) +5 246
>JD: EEEIORV B10 VOI.EE +36 295
>Rob: EHMNORS 1C MENOR.HS +64 310
>JD: AEINOOR A14 OO +14 309
#note crucial miss - didn't spot the (O)FLAGS hook, which would allow me to fish much more dangerously (OO at 10E). While drawing for EARING bingos on column D looks promising, this isn't really the pool for it.
>Rob: ?AEEINRXZ J8 .uX +52 362
>JD: AEEINRZ D6 RAZEEIN. +106 415
#note wow. lucked out.
