>Randi: APV 8G PAV +16 16
>Will: FIIJLNX 9E FLIX +29 29
#note Thought about just FIX, but wanted the more flexible leave and wasn't too scared of the triple after PAV.
>Randi: ABILNOT 8A BALTI +29 45
>Will: GIJNPSW B7 J.W +13 42
#note Almost did WIFING...PINGS is quite strong with PAVS though, assuming she somehow doesn't have an E and doesn't block.
>Randi: AIL A8 .AIL +11 56
>Will: EGINPST H7 P.. +12 54
>Randi: EGILNOT J7 LENTIGO +69 125
>Will: EGINSTT 12A SETTING +76 130
>Randi: ?AERRRS 14D REAReRS +71 196
>Randi: ?AERRRS -- -71 125
>Will: AAAENNO C7 A.AN +23 153
#note Can't do K7 ANOA as I had planned to - too easy to bingo.
>Randi: ?AERRRS 8G ....R +10 135
>Will: AENORUZ I12 AZO +46 199
#note As seems customary, I burned a ton of time this turn and last trying to figure out how to best respond to my rack knowledge, and ended up paying for it later. I was actually cognizant in-game of how many tiles Randi could draw after PAVER to AERRS? that would allow her to bingo with a blank N if I played AZO - it's a lot. But all the other reasonable options here (ZOOEA, ZOA, AZON, ZONURE) have even more warts than AZO does! At least with AZO some of the time I dodge the AZON hooking bingos and can keep pace; she could draw AAACCHHMMRRRRUUUV and not hit AZON. Amusingly, inferring AERRS? Randi's expected bingo% is literally 100% with every reasonable candidate play. Perhaps the sane option here is 13I ZONAE, which at least doesn't offer anything new and just concedes PAVERS bingos.
>Randi: ?AENRRS 15D REeARNS +84 219
#note I had to laugh at the N draw
>Will: EEGMNRU 11E GEUM +25 224
#note Drat, missed BAILSMEN which is extra nice here because of GAZON plays following up. Huge error in such a close game.
>Randi: BDOY 14C BODY +35 254
>Will: EEEENQR -EEEQ +0 224
>Randi: EEEEE -EEEE +0 254
>Will: CDENRRV 13I ..NER +28 252
>Randi: DEY K11 DE.Y +26 280
>Will: CDKRSUV L4 DUCKS +38 290
#note Not a thrilling move, but the only other option I could come up with wa 7B JAUK, which really pumps up the power of my S at a cost of the ugly CDRSV leave.
>Randi: CENOORS N7 CEROONS +76 356
>Will: EHOORVW O8 HEW +49 339
>Randi: IIOUU -IIOUU +0 356
>Will: IOOQRTV 5K Q.OIT +28 367
>Randi: EMOT O1 MOTE. +24 380
>Will: EFHIORV L12 R.EF +37 404
#note Down to minimal time now. Missing L10 HEREOF is a crusher, but also surprised I missed D2 OVERFIT/OVERHIT, which ought to win a lot more than REEF.
>Randi: ?ADEIUU 15L .EUD +24 404
#note Nice endgame by Randi
>Will: AEHIIOV N2 HIO. +28 432
#note Best. Could not find a move that blocked AUDIT and forced a find of UMIAQ while also threatening an out, so I just hoped for a miss.
>Randi: ?AIU D4 AUdI. +18 422
>Randi: (AEIV) +14 436
