>Jeff: CEELX 8D EXCEL +30 30
>Alec: ?ADEELO E3 pOLEA.ED +80 80
>Jeff: ADM F4 DAM +27 57
>Alec: BIJKORU D2 JOB +37 117
>Jeff: AOV D10 AVO +15 72
>Alec: IKRSTUW 10C W..I +10 127
#note I inferred a Z. But Jeff didn't have a Z. In my defense, 10C WADI wins the sim when I infer a Z, because none of Championship Player's choices block ADZ. But otherwise, 9G WIT is best. #tacticsmedium
>Jeff: ADINO 9G DANIO +16 88
>Alec: KMRRSTU 8K MURKS +40 167
>Jeff: IIUUU -IIUUU +0 88
>Alec: AILRTVY N6 VA.IL +22 189
#note I played too much defense this game. This time I tunneled on blocking column O and missed M3 RIVALRY. #findingmedium
>Jeff: AR 2B RA. +20 108
>Alec: GIPRTUY G5 GUY.. +23 212
>Jeff: GLOO C12 LOGO +12 120
>Alec: AIIIPRT 15A AT.P +27 239
#note When do I learn that I should never keep two or more I's? And I'm not ahead by enough that I should be paranoid about row 15. K8 MOIRAI is best. #strategymedium
>Jeff: EFH 1A FEH +34 154
>Alec: DIIIRTT 10J DIT +20 259
#note It's ok to keep two I's this turn because the best play that unloads two I's, 11F TITI, scores only 6.
>Jeff: AEHRS H1 HEARS +32 186
>Alec: EIIRTTY I2 TYE +23 282
#note Quackle picks L10 TITTY by a slim margin, but TITTY opens lanes and TYE blocks lanes. I'm ahead, so I want to block lanes.
>Jeff: ER K8 ...RE +14 200
>Alec: CIIIRTW 12H ICI.R +16 298
#note I saw O10 IRITIC, and I should have played it. IRITIC blocks column O, one of the higher-scoring bingo lanes on the board, and partially blocks row 12. The reason I played ICIER is that it fully blocks rows 12 and 13, the easiest bingo lanes. But it sacrifices 13 points, W > ITW, and I can easily outrun most row 13 bingos. #tacticsmedium
>Jeff: EF 13G EF +11 211
>Alec: BIIOTTW 14A BI.OT +28 326
#note At this point, I've given up on blocking bingos. Although BIGOT blocks column A.
>Jeff: QSU 14H SUQ +38 249
>Alec: EGINSTW 15J INGEST +38 364
#note When does this lose and not O10 INGEST?
>Jeff: NU 3A UN +5 254
>Alec: EIOPRWZ A3 .P +7 371
#note I have to block A3 UNTANNEd, but there are better ways. Best is 9A OWE, leaving J4 ZIP 32 while setting up A8 ZORI 39. Best of the plays I saw was 4A PE, but the optimal sequence includes 7C ZOA, which I missed. #endgamemedium (-13)
>Jeff: ?AENNNT J3 ETNA +15 269
#note A3 UPsENT, but after that I play the endgame correctly. (-1)
>Alec: EIORWZ 6I R.ZE +13 384
#note 7C ZOA #endgamemedium (-9)
>Jeff: ?NN L3 NiN. +6 275
>Jeff: (IOW) +12 287
