>Will: ILOQRSS J6 QI. +32 84
#note 9B QIS was tempting, leaving more of the WIDGETS floaters open, but any reparallel of my play would open up column L as a bingo lane with my two esses.
>Vince: EOU F3 EUO. +4 144
>Will: ILMORSS K5 MIS +23 107
#note Tough move here. My hope was that reparalleling MIS with ISO would help me open more of the board on subsequent turns, but particularly blocky AMIS hooks like the one Vince played are bad news. Sim actually prefers LIS slightly over MIS on that basis, allowing many fewer points per turn to Vince by allowing fewer hooks and less lucrative plays down the L column. #strategysmall

>Will: ACEIIIO 9K I.I +12 304
#note Needed to use up more tiles here; IWI doesn't accomplish anything. 11E IODIC/OIDIA/AIDOI all smarter. #strategymedium
>Vince: EG B1 .EG +24 255
>Will: ACEEIOZ 3K CAZ +39 343
#note Sim despises this. I get it, EEIO is weak despite the lopsided C/V ratio unseen and I'm still just letting the LABS hook sit there undisturbed. I was close to doing 11E ZODIAC but balked at the possibility of Vince opening column A with a play from 12A, creating situations with multiple very dangerous bingo lines available. 10D AIZLE is a fine way to score nearly as well as ZODIAC, block a couple lines, and make it more difficult to open the left side of the board while also scoring anything. #strategylarge
