>Chuck_Riordan: AEGRW 8D WAGER +26 26
>Peter: CEEJOTU 8A OUT..... +36 36
#note It isn't good. There is no 3-front for WAGER. (The only 2-front is DO-). He said, "I like it" and congratulated me afterwards. I didn't think twice about it. JOE 9C 25pts is Q's best.
>Chuck_Riordan: ?GILMRS E3 GReMI.LS +70 96
#note Great find and one that might be challenged. It scores the most of any bingo but MARLINGS E7 is considered 2% better. Yet, he might consider playing something with OUTWAGERS given that I am unlikely to challenge.
>Peter: CEEIJLU G7 J.U +19 55
#note Q likes JEU at B6...7 pts better...It is better since I have an E to spend.
>Chuck_Riordan: OX 10E .OX +30 126
>Peter: ACEEILN 4E .ELIANCE +72 127
#note only bingo!
>Chuck_Riordan: ABEKNR K1 BRA.KEN +30 156
#note I really like this play and it takes an -S. Q likes UNBRAKE B8 38 better. Don't know his 7th letter.
>Peter: FIMNRSV I3 M.VINS +28 155
#note I missed INFIRM H1 33 and played this phoney! FIRM J6 32 is an easy good play (Q's #2)
>Chuck_Riordan: EPPTT 6H P.P.TTE +19 175
#note styling!
>Peter: AAAFRWZ 1K .RAZA +51 206
#note If I had been 100% confident of BAZAR, I would have played it. But, ironically, Q thinks that it is 7% lower win% than BRAZA (its best play). I guess since I have an A, I am likely to double-dip on the Z with this placement. FATWA C6 16 is <1% worse than BRAZA, interesting!
>Chuck_Riordan: DEGLOR O4 LODGER +40 215
>Peter: ADEFIOW 2M DAW +44 250
#note I wanted to play the same hook as Chuck but he beat me to it; what a LODGER! DAW and WAE are considered the two best though WAE is a bit better (according to Q) though it scores 3 fewer pts. Its DFIO leave is prefered to EFIO.
>Chuck_Riordan: AHY N8 HAY +24 239
>Peter: CEFIIOU M9 FOCI +28 278
#note The "simple" FOU M9 25 has 55% win% while FOCI is Q's 2nd at 50%. Only 1 L and 1 R in bag (for FOU-).
>Chuck_Riordan: UV 3C VU. +14 253
#note FUMY or FOY N12 23 are best, 69% win%.
>Peter: EFIOSUY 6C FU.Y +20 298
>Chuck_Riordan: ?BEILNO B7 N.BILOsE +72 325
#note A cloudy play if I ever saw one! This is stylish but UNBOILED B8 80 (8 pts more) is better (62% win versus 56%).
>Peter: EIOOOST A12 TOO +10 308
#note This is Q's #2 play but OOT A13 12 is better by about 3% in win%. I contemplated both but chose the wrong one. Too scared about HO.... play. Take the 2 extra points and relax :)
>Chuck_Riordan: IQ L12 QI +44 369
#note Ouch this makes Chuck's win% 78%!
>Peter: DDEEIOS C1 DO.E +8 316
#note DOVE is not a good play (only 5% win%). Many other plays are better at 15%+. FETID C6 and ODE C11 are the best at 20%. I think this difference is exaggerated because (as you will see) Chuck will likely block the QI hook.
>Chuck_Riordan: AEST 14L SETA +20 389
#note Voila!
>Peter: DEEHIST 1A HI.ED +33 349
#note Best in equity, can't win!
>Chuck_Riordan: AEIINNR 15M RAN +19 408
#note NINE C10 19 is two points better in equity.
>Peter: EST C12 TES +16 365
#note This is 2nd...10 points less in equity than MEATS 3I. Nice going Chuck. Bring me back to earth with my first loss.
>Peter: (EIIN) +8 373
