>Samuel_Kaplan: AEMMOUU 8E MUMU +16 16
#note I don't remember the last time I drew 2 Ms and 2 Us on my opening rack. This play, MOUE, MEOU, and exchanging AMOUU all sim close. I like the way I played MUMU because I didn't have an S.

Imagine having MUUMUU on the opening rack, that would really be something.
>Dave_Conford: HOTY E8 .OTHY +26 26
>Samuel_Kaplan: ADEEJNO 12A ENJO.ED +38 54
#note Lots of good options here. Dave probably wasn't keeping very well after MOTHY. This scores the most and could be OK given his more random range. I would have made a safer play of JOEY for 10 less if Dave made a more fishy play. In the past a lot of our games have resulted in ugly boards. I don't mind blasting the board wide open in this position. Q thinks this play is best.
>Dave_Conford: AEIRSTW I3 WARIEST +75 101
#note Turns out Dave had a 3x3 WASTERIE for 149. I dodged a bullet.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAALQST B10 QA.AT +68 122
#note I wouldn't have been able to do this if Dave saw WASTERIE. Whew.
>Dave_Conford: DNOU 3I .OUND +18 119
>Samuel_Kaplan: AGILLOS 5G GO.ILLAS +68 190
#note Only playable bingo on this board. This is best.
>Dave_Conford: F 6I .F +26 145
>Samuel_Kaplan: DEEEGII C12 .EED +30 220
#note Now that I know Dave is keeping a strong leave, I opted to take out the QANATS hook. I also wasn't willing to leave the hooks to JEE open. Q says this is 2nd best. I like my play better despite the worse leave.
>Dave_Conford: AEIRRST 13F TARRIES +65 210
#note I saw him bingoing somehow but he only got so much out of it. I'm still in the driver's seat.
>Samuel_Kaplan: EGIIINW 12K WIG +23 243
#note DEWING 15C is the play. Mine is 5th.
>Dave_Conford: EKL 11J LEK +33 243
>Samuel_Kaplan: EEIINOX 15C .IOXIN +45 288
#note There we go. #boardvisionsolid
>Dave_Conford: CINRUVZ - +0 243
#note Not actual rack. Exchange 3.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEEIIOP L1 PE.I.E +22 310
#note Right idea. PI(N)O(L)E in the same spot is a little better. I was gonna exchange until I found a play here. Gotta love playing thru disconnected tiles.
>Dave_Conford: NV 9D V.N +8 251
>Dave_Conford: NV -- -8 243
#note I wonder what he meant to play here. Which person was he trying to give a shoutout to with VON*?
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?ACIORT 4A CORTInA +75 385
#note #boardvisionmeh. Missed the not obvious 3x3 ATRO(P)hIC. My play is 2nd. Bleeehhhhh.
>Dave_Conford: BEV C2 VE.B +18 261
>Samuel_Kaplan: CGINNTZ A1 ZIN. +45 430
#note I saw ZINC at E3 but 15 more is too many to give up.
>Dave_Conford: ALP 1L .ALP +24 285
>Samuel_Kaplan: CET 14L TEC +18 448
#note ECOGIFT J1 is just wow. That's harder to spot than my play of PENILE earlier for sure.
>Dave_Conford: FO 3F OF +21 306
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAEGNSU O9 GUANASE +83 531
#note Unnecessary but I'll take it!
>Dave_Conford: ?BDNRVY 9D B.NY +26 332
#note This is best play that doesn't involve spending the blank.
>Samuel_Kaplan: HOR 2E OH +26 557
#note Seeing he couldn't go out, I purposely didn't play THRO. I like my play over Q's demented choice of THRO 9I.
>Dave_Conford: ?DRV 14I eD +14 346
#note ARVo M5 is best play for Dave.
>Samuel_Kaplan: R 6H R.. +8 565
#note Couple small mistakes in ths one but overall solid. Missing ATRO(P)hIC was bad but other than that I like a lot of the plays I made.
>Samuel_Kaplan: (RV) +10 575
