>skaplan31: ?AAAFSY - +0 0
#note Rd 3 Philly virtual 6-6-2021. I'm 2nd.
>hellacia: BDDHIIT 8E BIDI +14 14
#note This, DIB, or BID are all fine.
>skaplan31: ?AAAFSY G4 FArA.AYS +66 66
#note Would you look at that? I got the D or R that I was looking for! Only bingo and definitely happy to find this one.
>hellacia: DEHNRTT 5F H.TRED +20 34
>skaplan31: AOOPSTX 10E OX. +29 95
#note Considered this, 10D POXY, 4J POX, and J5 EXPO. I do set up my P nicely with this over POXY, and even if Robin takes Row 11, I can still get POXY plays often next turn. This also has the benefit of taking out some 2x2s.
>hellacia: AFNNORT 6J FANO +31 65
#note I like her aggressiveness here. She could also do FON, FANO, FONT, or FANON at D10 too.
>skaplan31: AJMOPST 11C JAM +32 127
#note Yep. I can still hit POXY plays next turn too.
>hellacia: AGNRRTU 12D GAR +19 84
#note Interesting. I would have considered JURA here because she already has the FANON hook to hit some nice bingoes. If I take 1 good line, she has the other.
>skaplan31: IOOPSTW 4D WOO. +25 152
#note I did see 7K POW as well for 4 more immediately, but IPST does better on this board for plays like D10 PAGE, PAGAN, etc. The sim concurs.
>hellacia: INPRTTU M2 PUTT. +14 98
#note M1 PRINTOUT is Robin's only bingo here for 72.
>skaplan31: HIPRSTZ N1 ZIP +40 192
#note With only 3 As left, this isn't as dangerous as it might normally be. And since I'm gonna be up by more than just an average bingo after this play, let's score here. Definitely fine to do this over N6 SPITZ.
>hellacia: DEIINOR O2 NORI +15 113
#note So it's pretty clear Robin wasn't keeping an A, otherwise she would have done O1 AN or something.
>skaplan31: EHNQRST 7F Q.T +25 217
#note Obviously
>hellacia: DEEINTV 13F EVIDENT +69 182
>skaplan31: EHINNRS 14J HEIRS +49 266
#note I really like how well this will allow me to close the bottom of the board more easily later on with 14B plays if Robin decides to make an H12 play. I definitely felt that this play was worth it over 12H HIN or H12 HISN.
>hellacia: EELTUVY H13 .VY +27 209
>skaplan31: ?ABCNNW 3C BAWN +34 300
#note Best play by far.
>hellacia: EEILLTU 14B TULLE +19 228
#note At this point, I would consider 14B UTILE in the hopes of drawing the R hook, or even the bolder 14A TUILLE as she does need some big plays to get back in this one.
>skaplan31: ?CEEGKN L9 GENE..C +26 326
#note While I did not see L9 NECK(TI)E for 2 more, I do really like how this takes out Row 9 and Row 11 possibilities, and offers Robin a nice scoring opportunity with the AGENETIC hook which will take out many Column N bingoes with FANON or FANOS. At that point, she'll have to hit a disconnected 9 instead of having easier 7s. Even if Robin hits a Column N bingo starting at N7, I just have to continue outscoring her which should be easy with my K.
>hellacia: AAEINOR 8L AERO +27 255
#note And I greatly appreciate her making my life easier now.
>skaplan31: ?DEKMOS 15A DEMO +33 359
#note As it turns out, I blocked my own N6 SMOcKED! But it's all good, even if I didn't block directly, I had a big enough lead where I could entice Robin to block the last easy lane.
>hellacia: AEILNSU N5 UN +17 272
#note Looks fine.
>skaplan31: ?EEKLRS 11J KE. +14 373
#note Gonna hope that Robin takes the H1 spot giving me a spot to bingo out...
>hellacia: ACEILOS 15L .EIL +22 294
#note She wasn't having any of it.
>skaplan31: ?EIILRS H1 REeS. +27 400
#note Low on time. Maybe do wRI(S)T, etc. in this spot to not give her an out play? Anything other than that.
>hellacia: ACGOSU 1C COUGA.S +11 305
#note Seeing I have no out play, she could do 13A SAC for 27. Still, don't give opponents an opportunity to go out with garbage. Well done otherwise.
>hellacia: (IIL) +6 311
