>Joey: AEUV H6 UVEA +14 14
>Noah: ADLTTWW 9G W.WL +18 18
#note I didn't consider playing on column I here, but I don't love opening scoring spots. WAWLED looks decent. I considered WAW because Joey presumably didn't leave an L, but the leave looked worse.
>Joey: ELOO 10G OLEO +28 42
>Noah: ADJTTTZ -DJTTT +0 18
>Joey: ABDENRU 11I DRUB +24 66
#note Actual rack.
>Noah: AABEORZ 11E AZO +30 48
>Joey: ?AEEINY 12D YEA +25 91
#note Actual rack.
>Noah: ABELRTU L8 BUL.AR +26 74
#note BARBUT and BAUBLE and BUB and others are better statically. Not sure about BUB. I was maybe not certain of this word, but wanted to play it. Wondered if he might S hook it, seems unlikely. Sim actually seems to like my play.
>Joey: ?EEIKNT M2 NEcKTIE +76 167
#note NETlIKE.
>Noah: EHINTTY 2J HIN.Y +38 112
#note Could do ITCHY, only thought of TITCHY in that spot.
>Joey: ?ADIINR N8 DeNARII +74 241
>Noah: ACERSTT O4 CARTS +51 163
#note Also considered CATES, but kind of liked ET with row 1 open. I didn't consider CERTS, which has merit given the relative levels of As and Es in the pool. i
>Joey: HILNRRT 6G H.RL +9 250
#note I think this was his rack. I think I'd be inclined to play N(I)HIL here, if I saw it, or maybe NITRIL.
>Noah: ADEEFNT 1G DEFAT +34 197
#note Anyone want to make a case for DEFEAT / FADE here?
>Joey: FIRTT F2 FRITT +28 278
>Noah: CEEGGNS M13 EGG +19 216
>Joey: IM 1N MI +19 297
>Noah: CENOOSS 4C CON.OSES +72 288
>Joey: EIIMNOT O11 MENTO +39 336
#note Actual rack. TERMINI 3D is nice.
>Noah: AEEEOSV E1 VEE.A +27 315
>Joey: IP 3I PI +21 357
>Noah: ADENOPS F11 ..P +14 329
#note Despite my tracking saying otherwise, I thought there were two in the bag here. This may be correct still, I don't know. Quackle isn't coming up with this play even though it wins more than all of the win percentages it states for its top plays. Edit 09/06/20: Rafi's gut was to play ENDCAPS here, which appears to win 5 games and tie one, with optimal play. ZAP may win 7/8, losing only with a Q draw. Champ thinks it wins the endgames when I don't draw a G or Q, and I'm confident that it wins when I draw a G.
>Joey: IIJOQUX C2 JU.O +26 383
>Noah: ADEGNOS 14A DONGAS +37 366
#note I kind of phoned it in here. I calculated that this beats (P)IX by 1 (should be 2 because he gives me EX), and wondered about other possibilities, but didn't really want to think more, and didn't see his next play. Quackle actually doesn't think I can win here, but if I just play PIE 3K I'm good. (P)IX is then terrible as it sets up AXON for me, and he can't block DONGAS or do anything else with points-leave nearly as good as (P)IX, so I win. There may be wins where I slow play more as well.
