>Ruth_Hamilton: AWY C12 YAW +35 193
>Alec: EHMOOUV 4A HUMO. +28 211
#note I think I saw 4A HOVER but otherwise rushed this play. D2 OVUM is best; it sets up plays in row 1 making NOVUM# but has the second-best equity behind D1 HOVE, which gives even more back? 4B MEVROU# and HOVE are also good plays. #strategysmall
>Ruth_Hamilton: DIKR I4 DIRK +29 222
>Alec: EEIIOVV H1 VIVO +37 248
#note H1 VIVE is best; EIO > EEI. #strategymedium
>Ruth_Hamilton: EGIT A1 EIG.T +27 249
>Alec: AEEIMRT 1H .IAMETER +92 340
#note Maybe VIVO# was better after all.

>Alec: ABBELNZ N4 BEZ +78 418
>Ruth_Hamilton: COT M3 COT +25 372
>Alec: ABELNQS 2G Q.N +14 432
#note The best plays are 2J BAN and BAL, which score 13 more than QIN and threaten F2 QIS with an I draw. #tacticssmall
>Ruth_Hamilton: FG C7 F.G +18 390
>Alec: ABCEFLS 2N F. +20 452
#note The score is close enough, and my tiles and the pool are good enough, that I should go for one more bingo. FE does not work as a fish, as it hits with only the blank. The best play is D3 FOB, the fish that keeps the best leave and, for example, hits SCALENI with the most likely draw. #strategylarge
>Ruth_Hamilton: ?AEIINP N8 EPINAoI +72 462
>Alec: ABCEILS O12 BISE +37 489
#note This is the highest scoring play, but it empties the bag, and Ruth may be able to outscore me in the endgame. Quackle suggests M12 LIB, which sets up a scoring lane on row 15 that only I can use. #tacticslarge
>Ruth_Hamilton: DNORUUW 3A .NU +18 480
#note G11 WUDU# is best. (-17)
>Alec: AACLLNP 11E ..CANAL +20 509
#note 10J CAPLIN is best, saving 5K LATEX and F5 LA. (-15) #endgamelarge
>Ruth_Hamilton: DORUW M10 DOW +20 500
#note 12H WUD is best. (-8)
>Alec: LP J10 P.L +11 520
#note The best play is 13M PoI for 28; Ruth's best out is 5C URE for 10. This game could have been even higher-scoring! (-1) #endgamesmall
