>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: OVW 8F VOW +18 18
#note an unusual placement!
>JD: AEHJNOW 7G JOW +47 47
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: AEMZ 6H MAZE +48 66
>JD: ADEEHNO L3 HOED +33 80
#note wanted to save the A for the MOWA spot. HOAED and OHED all sim really close.
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: DOY M2 YOD +27 93
>JD: AEEFNOU 9G EAU +25 105
#note I totally missed the picture on this play. while EFNO looks balanced, EFNO won't accomplish much, whereas holding an A unlocks a lot of good scoring spots. The star play is FONE at N1 which sets up AUE/FA/YOU/HONE for next turn, and also allows for some backdoor draws into pointy bingos on column E and row 9. This sims a full 15 points of equity worse!!
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: ALT N1 LAT +22 115
>JD: EEFLNOO J3 FOO.LE +32 137
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: AERV E8 AVER +24 139

>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: ?AFILLT 4C FeLLATI. +72 211
#note great find!
>JD: AAEEINT 5A TAENIAE +78 235
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: AGNORRS A1 GRAN.ORS +140 351
#note aha
>JD: BCDEIUY K5 B.Y +44 279
#note unideal because it blocks my best lane on column K, but too many points to pass up.
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: CEIST C11 CITES +27 378
>JD: CDEIKSU O3 SUCKED +49 328
#note indeed, I blocked my own DUCKIES. with the blank out there I figured it was worth cashing my S, although she has just signaled she has the last S in hand.
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: M 6A .M +20 398
>JD: EEIIPRR 14B P..RIE +20 348
#note Q wants PEERIER, but Caroline might be reluctant to play the hooks on PEERIE.
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: ENP G13 P.N +8 406
>JD: EIRRTUX 15A XI. +34 382
#note painful decision. ultimately I will need to bingo to win, and ditching the last E may cripple my ability to bingo. the other reason I liked this was that if she stumbles across the Q, then I prevent the cheapest QIS dump for 40. Quackle actually agrees.
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: ?QT 12A Qu..T +31 437
#note whoa! this play strongly signals that she didn't have one of the three Is or she surely would've played QI at H12.
>JD: DEHRRTU F4 ..H +14 396
#note DRUTHER is a recent dictionary addition but doesn't play! failing that I saw that fishing the H would give me PUTRIDER (also TRUDGER and RUSTRED), and her last play telegraphed that there could be multiple Is left in the pool!
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: AGGINSU 1A .AUGINGS +89 526
>Caroline_Polak_Scowcroft: UNKNOWN (challenge) +5 531
#note fabulous play! no shame in losing to a 3 G bingo.
>JD: DEIRRTU 13G .UTRIDER +74 470
>JD: (challenge) +5 475
>JD: (IN) +4 479
