#player1 Peter Peter
#player2 Darin_True Darin_True
>Peter: AOOOSVY 8H SAVOY +30 30
#note played this in less than 15 seconds...nothing else looked remotely close...Q says exchanging all but the S is just as good. Playing OVA or AVO are just a tad bit worse.
>Darin_True: AY 7H AY +20 20
>Peter: EINOOWX L8 .OWIE +22 52
#note Q's best. WOO 7K 17 is about the same quality.
>Darin_True: ENRSTUW 11H UNWR.TES +72 92
>Peter: DINOTXZ N10 Z.NDO +70 122
#note Thought about UNWRITES* but when I saw I had 70 pt comeback, it wasn't worth my time to challenge as I wasn't sure.
>Darin_True: HKRU 9F RUKH +36 128
>Peter: DGIITVX 6D DIXIT +37 159
#note less than 1% less than DIVOT K5 20. After I played it (quickly), I regretted not playing DIXIT at 12D 31 but apparently the 6 extra points at 6D more than makes up for its more vulnerable comeback play.
>Darin_True: AAMOR 5B AROMA +34 162
>Peter: DEEGLNV 4A GLEN +26 185
#note Wanted to play GAVELED B4 24 but had no idea it was worth 24! GLEN is -5% win%. Even something as aggressive as VENGE 10B (setting up A-VENGE with 5 A's unseen) is better to Q.
>Darin_True: AEELTU 12D ELUATE +19 181
>Peter: ADEIMNV 8A INVADE +35 220
#note When I saw INVADE it was a no-brainer because I missed a 6 very similar to this in the same spot at a tournament a month earlier. However, Q likes O7 plays (like VINAS, DIVAS and DEVAS) by 1-2% win%.
>Darin_True: BEIJ 11B JIBE +34 215
>Peter: ?AEFMTU O7 FETA. +35 255
#note As I didn't play here last time and I drew another A, I like this play particularly as it opens up another bingo lane. Yet, TUFAS is (leave EM?) is 5% win% better than FETAS (leave MU?). I noticed that there were no otehr U's in the bag but I didn't consider TUFAS for some reason.
>Darin_True: CGIP B3 P..CI.G +18 233
>Peter: ?AEIMTU 4F MUrIATE +78 333
#note had two spots for this so ready to play it no matter what Darin did. Win % is now 94%
>Darin_True: BFO N6 FOB +25 258
>Peter: DEGOQRR O13 ORG +17 350
#note This is Q's second favorite play (win% 84%) but it likes TROG M11 22 better by almost 2%. This does make an -S bingo a little less devasting but I like getting rid of it altogether.
>Darin_True: OOP H1 POO. +15 273
>Peter: CDEIQRT 1H .RICED +12 362
#note This allowed me to clog the best bingo lane and leave one in the bag. I felt that this was the clincher. It turns out to be according to Q (one of four)
>Darin_True: EILLRSS G12 .S +3 276
>Peter: ?AENNQT 14D QATs +16 378
#note I knew HILLERS was good and thought SHILLER* was bad but I dodn't want to fool around here. Q likes ANENST 14C the best (leaving me the Q) as I have two Q outs! Now that would take some gumption to do that!
>Darin_True: EHILLRS 5I SHILL +29 305
#note Darin's best, sets up unblockable REPLACING to go out next turn. Nice Darin!
>Peter: ENN 10E EN +12 390
#note best play
>Darin_True: ER B1 RE....... +28 333
>Darin_True: (N) +2 335
