>Joshua_Sokol: EEGOOPR H4 GROPE +20 20
#note It's not like I was a huge fan of this play, but again, it seemed pretty straightforward. It's not. It's way less defensive than POGO and even EGO. POGO is probably the best play #strategysmall
>Noah: AEIJORU 5H .IOJA +24 24
#note Considered JURA, which sim likes by a bit.
>Joshua_Sokol: EELMORY 7F EM.LOYER +70 90
>Noah: AEIRRUV 8A RAVIER +32 56
#note VARI(A) sims a bit higher on win%.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ADEGLO A1 DiALOGE. +80 170
#note it could be O(V)ErGLAD as well.
>Noah: ?EENNSU C3 UNNEr.ES +72 128
>Joshua_Sokol: AHIITVY 6J HAY +50 220
>Noah: BEILSUU K1 BLUE... +19 147
#note Sim prefers a two tile play like NUB or exchanging. My leave here is much worse than EILSU or BEILS, and BLUEJAY opens cheap scoring and semi-blocking for him. I guess this is a good-sized mistake.
>Joshua_Sokol: IITTTVX 3J T.TTI +10 230
#note this is a bad play for many reasons. Reason number 1 is that I didn't think this took an S. Reason number 2 is that TIT(B)IT is a word. I once again thought this was a great play since it set up my X a lot and blocked EMPLOYERS. #knowledgelarge
>Noah: ACHINSU 1K .UNCH +39 186
>Joshua_Sokol: EIQSTVX F4 VEX.. +31 261
#note SEXT 8L is a lot better than usual because the TUTTIS lane is by far the most dangerous. Luckily this is still better because it sets up G3 QI, something I only noticed once I hit the clock. Really shabby stuff.
>Noah: AEIIKNS D1 KINA +32 218
>Joshua_Sokol: BIIQRST G3 QI +28 289
>Noah: EFIMRSW 1D .EFIR +36 254
#note I think this is the right rack.
>Joshua_Sokol: BGIORST 9F SORB +35 324
#note Once I made this play I realized it was not good. There's one place left to score easily on this board and it's E5. If I draw poorly after this, I won't necessarily be able to withstand a bingo and a scoring play from Noah. E5 BO is far and away best #strategylarge
>Noah: MOSW E5 WO +29 283
>Joshua_Sokol: ADGIITT B10 ATIGI +20 344
#note now I really just have to brace and hope he doesn't bingo, or that I draw well. Really messed up bigtime. I can also play B8 (A)DIT. #questionable
>Noah: FLM 12A F.LM +26 309
#note Maybe DNPS?
>Joshua_Sokol: ADESTTW 15B SWATTED +93 437
#note so now this plays with TUTTIS for 101. I considered many times whether I would be game to challenge TUTTIS this game, and figured that I wouldn't be able to. #knowledgesmall
>Noah: DENNOPS 14G POND +18 327
#note Another huge misestimate by Quackle here -- IN D8 should seemingly be more like +10 on average here, not +50. And this seems to be around +7 rather than like -17.4.
>Joshua_Sokol: ACDIOUZ 10I AZOIC +40 477
#note I somehow missed that he could play NAES 11I after this. I also missed FILMI. E10 ZOIC is best. -6 #endgamemedium
>Noah: AENS 11I NAES +30 357
>Noah: (DU) +6 363
