#note Q prefers LIPOID or LIPOMA. LIPOMA looks pretty good, gives back fewer cheap points and keeps plenty of bingo chances. LIPOID looks a little blocky, but AIR is definitely better than IR.
>James_Curley: MOV H2 VOM +22 193
>JD: EIOORTU 10I OU.RO +7 131
#note I think OUTRO is worth it here over OUTROOP at 3C - passing up 13 points, but I bingo 33% of the time versus 17% after OUTROOP.

#note more GJU blindness!! if there's one thing about my game I need to fix it's clearly that (and DZO) lol
>James_Curley: EKR B12 .ERK +30 325
>JD: DEGLTTW C10 GL.T +14 305
#note it's going to be hard from here. I had to save the W for OUTROW/WE in case I needed to open an S hook.

>James_Curley: DOR N1 ROD +24 372
>JD: AADLNTT J1 TAAL +16 364
#note TAAL to maximize my chances of pulling an S or blank. Q's top-simming play is a fork at B7 with DATA, but I think that's unlikely to work. maybe DATAL at 15G to hold a vowel, and maybe luck into some bingos on column B ending in A? I can also score a bunch with LAUD at H6, but I passed it up for an extra shot at S or blank. DATAL looks right in hindsight.
>James_Curley: ?ADIIPV 2M ..P +8 380
#note really hard. Quackle wants him to ignore column O and play to go out even pulling the Q (VAPID at 15G, or VAIR at 3C setting up QUAD if necessary). but if he wants to beat STANDER/SANTERO/SNORTED, he might have to try this and hope that I pull the Q.
>JD: ADENRST O2 .EDANTS +43 407
#note didn't have enough time to think this one all the way through. I lose if I pull the Q (a 50-50 shot, given the actual bag). past that, I'm actually supposed to play PETARDS at O3 for 3 fewer because of what happens if I pull the V - with RV, I only have VAR and REV at the bottom, which are all blockable, whereas with NV I keep EEVN at 7J to guarantee that I can go out. cool, nuanced endgame.
