>Mack_Meller: CEINOSS H4 CESSION +74 74
#note MM: Could also consider COSINES (not OSCINES as it puts the S in the TWS lane) or sacrificing 4 points for something a bit more defensive. I played this pretty quickly, the difference is marginal enough it's not worth spending much time on especially in a 20 minute game.

#note Sim doesn't think this is a good play -- I do turn another tile for BELIQUOR, but even though there don't seem to be great S hooks on this board, the S is still pretty valuable, it seems. Burning the E also just doesn't increase my odds of drawing natural BELIQUOR that much -- only by about 8 %points.
>Mack_Meller: EIMNTTV 3I M.VIN +26 210
#note MM: didn't love this but there's not much else. 2J ANIME scores more but VTT is just ugly. I don't think VAT for 10 bingoes enough on this board.

#note MM: RUBEOLA might be better, as it also opens more lanes but makes it harder for Noah to score so helps keep me within striking distance with 1 bingo.

#note Tricky -- the main alternative I considered was OWE, I think. I could also play OWIE. Both plays almost always win, so I guess it's close to a wash.
