#note Definitely seems better than DAWK to give less back, plus DKP? is way better than PV? when I don't bingo.

#note Hated 10D OUD since the LOUD hook will be tough to block, and didn't think NIDUS was worth it since it's the case S. Missed 8H AUDIO, but I'd rather score more and I don''t mind a vowel-heavy leave since the pool is pretty consonant heavy. NIDUS does have the advantage of not giving back row 11 for bingos and taking out row I in addition to scoring 11 more, at the expense of getting rid of the case S and the U for the Q in case I draw it. Definitely a close call - for what it's worth they sim about evenly.

>Mack: ILNOSTU A6 OUT +14 375
#note Nothing really scores more, and at least I'm taking out a high-scoring bingo line.

#note Best here is 8L ZEES blocking bingos on column N. I saw ETHICAL there but correctly permuted that FEZ outruns ETHICAL with every possible 2-tile draw. I missed ATHLETE, however, which beats FEZ with 3 of 6 possible 2-tile draws. ZEES seems to only lose with one possible draw after GLACIATE and one possible draw after 11G THECATE, which is better than FEZ (which also loses in some scenarios after both GLACIATE and THECATE). Another option I considered was 1L EF setting up FEZ/ZED for 58, but I correctly determined that does even worse than FEZ, losing even in some situations after ETHICAL. If not for ATHLETE the two plays are close, but given I missed ATHLETE, FEZ is definitely a mistake. #preendgamemedium
>Joey_K: AH 13D AH +9 380
>Mack: EEIILST B12 .ET +26 468
#note Nearly out of time from analyzing the pre-endgame so quickly played this. F12 TIE is apparently 8 better. #endgamesmall
>Joey_K: ACEEGLT N1 A.E +22 402
>Mack: EIILS 14D SEI +15 483
#note Out of time again. This is really bad. It looks like I can even stick him with some stuff after 8N ES. #endgamemedium
>Joey_K: CEGLT 15F TEC +17 419
>Mack: IL 8A .IL +3 486
#note M5 AAL is better by 1 -- he's G-stuck. #endgamesmall
>Mack: (GL) +6 492
