#player2 Matthew_Larocque Matthew Larocque
>Christopher_Sykes: EFORT 8D FORTE +24 24
>Matthew_Larocque: ?BEIIPT F8 .IB +11 11
#note Maybe 7C BI.
>Christopher_Sykes: DJTTU H4 JUTT.D +22 46
>Matthew_Larocque: ?AEIPTV 5G P.TAtIVE +74 85
#note The seven in this rack scores 77, although it gives up an S-hook. The other eight is OPTATIVE.
>Christopher_Sykes: IKLOO 6C LOOKI. +24 70
>Matthew_Larocque: ?AAEGLR I9 ALEGARs +63 148
#note I saw LAIRAGES too, but I just couldn't do it. Also cool: SALVAGER.
>Christopher_Sykes: DEGIMNO 15B MENDIGO. +86 156
>Matthew_Larocque: AAOPSUZ 14A ZOA +34 182
#note I'm gonna say I missed ZAP, because I'd like to think I would have taken the 48.
>Christopher_Sykes: OW 6J WO +27 183
>Matthew_Larocque: AELNPSU 12I .ULP +14 196
#note Not good, but I didn't know SPINULAE and I'm not good enough to find a play like PANFORTE.
>Christopher_Sykes: AEILN M2 ALE.IN +20 203
>Matthew_Larocque: AEGHNRS 4L H. +20 216
#note This has to be better than scoring 29 but keeping EGNRS? If I miss vowels next turn it's going to be painful.
>Christopher_Sykes: F N5 .F +26 229
>Matthew_Larocque: AEGNRST O6 STRANGE +83 299
>Christopher_Sykes: BEIR D8 .IBRE +20 249
>Matthew_Larocque: ADIRSUV K10 VA.ID +18 317
#note I was pretty lost on this one. I didn't know 2J VISARD which scores a lot better than anything else while not giving back the big bingo lane.
>Christopher_Sykes: EENTY 5A TEENY +30 279
>Matthew_Larocque: EHMRSUU A5 .HRU +21 338
#note I didn't know THRUM.
>Christopher_Sykes: IIQ N1 QI +26 305
>Matthew_Larocque: EEMOSSU M9 MOUSE +28 366
#note So he has the other I, but is this worth blocking? I'd be losing ~20 points, but does he score more than 20 less afterwards? I guess that's possible, but I'd also have a better leave after MOUSE and a better chance to draw the X or the third S. My gut said to just try and outscore him here. With the letter I specified, the sim agrees overwhelmingly. Although strangely MOUSES/MOUSSE perform even better still?
>Christopher_Sykes: DI O1 ID +46 351
>Matthew_Larocque: AAEENSW 13D SANE +16 382
#note Champ says the only 100% win is E11 EWE. I'd rather kill the X spot completely.
>Christopher_Sykes: CNORSXY 15K SYCON +52 403
>Christopher_Sykes: CNORSXY -- -52 351
#note He can't win, but the tricky J2 SCRAWNY makes it pretty close. I could potentially lose there if I was low on time and make a brainfart.
>Matthew_Larocque: ACEW J8 AWE +23 405
#note JEW
>Christopher_Sykes: CNORSXY C2 SOR..Y +26 377
#note SOX for 28 at 14M or B8.
>Matthew_Larocque: C J4 C.. +8 413
>Matthew_Larocque: (CNX) +24 437
