>Jackson: ?ADEOOZ H8 OOZED +34 34
#note pretty close between ZOO and OOZED. I think this is fine.

>Jackson: ?AAAEHR 10A AHA +33 117
#note or ARcHAEA, but I prefer this even though the board isn't great for bingoes
>Josh: FR A8 FR.. +21 218

>Jackson: ?DIIORY 2J DI.RY +26 161
#note I didn't see IDIOCY here, and it is probably close with DIARY and OY, but it's not exactly what I want to do here. It keeps a consonant when there is a real imbalance in the pool, which also makes swinging the vowel out at h3 bad, cause it can bail out a lot of his racks and let him block the opening. DIARY opens much better, because even if he plays on row 1 he'll be making a new marginal lane. I felt like DIARY was more proactive than OY.
>Josh: GISW 1H SWIG +30 262
>Jackson: ?CEIIOO 12G O.IC +9 170
#note almost 3 consonants for every vowel in the pool, so EIO? isn't bad at all. I wanted to make another lane because I felt he could block along column N really easily and leave me with nothing, cause the E will let him block with a lot of consonant heavy racks.
>Josh: JNPU C4 PUNJ. +22 284
>Jackson: ?EEIMOS 4A MO.ErIES +80 250
>Josh: DLTW N6 DW.LT +15 299
>Jackson: BGHNNQV -BGHNNQV +0 250
#note still a consonant heavy pool somewhat, despite drawing 7 now! not worth keeping anything for that reason, and I need to go for the blank
>Josh: KO 10E OK +35 334
>Jackson: EEFINST 3G FEN +22 272
#note blocking the Q, which may help me win with a lower scoring bingo. I saw FUSED but even with a Q stick that won't be enough, and it lowers my bingo chance by a lot, especially if he blocks the 13 row and I'd have to start with an S at 14G. I played FEN over FEE to shed the vowel with lots of consonants left, and 3 Ns left specifically.
>Josh: GLO A1 GLO. +21 355
>Jackson: ?EHISTY 13A ISoHYET +80 352
#note I wasn't very confident in my chances here, cause I think I need to draw EU for sure, or maaybe SQUU, but either way I need to avoid the bulk of the drek. I didn't consider 13E THY, just L11 THY which i discarded because it lets him block on row 13 without giving back a new lane. 13E THY also runs into issues whenever he has an S (he can block and even win after getting Q stuck a decent amount), and blocks down the L column (they aren't as foolproof though since they will usually take an S). I am okay with going all in on isohyet.
>Josh: BNQRSTU L11 SUQ +26 381

>Jackson: BENNR 6J N. +8 367
>Josh: NRV F7 ..N.. +9 396
>Jackson: BENR 15H BREN +24 391
#note slowplaying for the whole thing is way better, but I saw this win and wanted to go for it cause I was low on time
>Jackson: (RV) +10 401
