>jlevedit: AABEESW - +0 0
#note Rd 1 Philly virtual 3-7-2021. I'm first.
>skaplan31: AEENPTX 8H EXPAT +30 30
#note Good opening move.
>jlevedit: AABEESW 7G ABA +21 21
#note I think WAE in this spot gives him a better leave.
>skaplan31: AEFINRU 6I FEU +21 51
#note Leave is more important than the 6 extra points with 9D FURANE. The X is already on the board so there won't be very good scoring parallels on Row 5 a lot of the time without giving something back.
>jlevedit: EEESTTW M3 TWEETS +35 56
#note Q does recommend taking the extra 19 points with this over L8 TWEET. ETWEES in this spot is also fine.
>skaplan31: ADINRTU 9B UNITARD +66 117
#note Mhm
>jlevedit: AACDELV 6B CALVED +23 79
#note C5 VALA(N)CED does play for 65 and a 2x2 VACA(T)ED does play for 52.
>skaplan31: DHIIJOT F8 H.JI +30 147
#note 10A DHOTI would have been really nice for 6 more and I save the J for another scoring play! Gotta learn to find higher scoring without needing power tiles sometimes. #visionmedium
>jlevedit: AEEGNRS 12A GREENS +33 112
#note 11A ANERGIES does play for 68 which is his best bingo.
>skaplan31: DDEIOOT L2 DIED +27 174
#note I think this play is a perfectly safe option over my other ones such as N4 EDDO, A12 GOOD, and 4K DOWED or DOWIE given the nature of this board and my lead. It's completely dead for 7s except for Row 10 bingoes. And 4K DOWIE is the kind of play I might consider if I was behind.
>jlevedit: AAEOOWY D3 WOO.Y +22 134
#note Looks fine to me.
>skaplan31: ELNNOOT C3 ETN. +22 196
#note Definitely not making any C1 plays in this spot. K4 NO(U)N(A)L is next level stuff right here.
>jlevedit: ?AAEIIY -AAIIY +0 134
#note Many plays are very close and none score well or keep well. Hard to not exchange here.
>skaplan31: GILNOOS 10H SOLOING +71 267
#note I did see L8 TOOLINGS as well as this but why would I do TOOLINGS when I can completely deaden the board for 7s and most bingoes in general?
>jlevedit: ?EELOOR 2E REtOOLE. +62 196
#note His best bingo. RELOOkE(D) also plays for 60 in this spot.
>skaplan31: ?ACFGOU H1 G.OF +36 303
#note Maybe 1F FUG is a little better for the same score?
>jlevedit: AHINRSU 10A UH +26 222
>skaplan31: ?ACORUY A12 .ORY +24 327
#note With only 1 E left Jay is not gonna have an easy time closing off the opening I just made without giving something else back or giving up a lot of points.
>jlevedit: AEINRSV 1A NAIVER +43 265
#note Looks fine to me- he does need to draw the blank and fishing doesn't work out too well with this board.
>skaplan31: ?ACIPRU 11I RIP +22 349
#note Hopefully he makes a reparallel that could give me a 2nd spot for my bingo.
>jlevedit: AAIISTZ M10 .AZI +26 291
#note Nice play Jay.
>skaplan31: ?ACKLMU 14H CAULKs +26 375
#note With this pool, the only way I lose by not blocking on Row 14 is if BQ is in the bag as he has ANIMIST/INTIMAS/SANTIMI. So let's take that out. I can still outrun being Q-stuck even if I draw it after this play.
>jlevedit: ABINQST I13 Q.T +22 313
>skaplan31: IMM 13C MM +24 399
#note Doing this over N6 MI does not allow him any out plays, in this case, O2 NABIS.
>jlevedit: ABINS 2A AB +18 331
#note 3F BIOS is the same score and is 2 less spread points for me.
>skaplan31: I L14 .I +7 406
#note Best out play. Did a nice job of making an annoying board for him early on and also grateful to not pick the Q in the end.
>skaplan31: (INS) +6 412
