#player2 Jackson Jackson
>Will_Anderson: ?ACDNOQ -Q +0 0
>Jackson: IOSSTUU -OUU +0 0
#note It's either ISST or IOSST, which may respond to bingoes slightly better. I think ISST is preferred
>Will_Anderson: ?ACDENO 8D CONgAED +74 74
>Jackson: ?HIRSST E4 oRTH.SIS +90 90
#note didnt consider AIRSHOTS for 2 more. no real reason not to play that
>Will_Anderson: EEEGOOU D8 .OOEE +20 94
>Jackson: BDINRTU 13B BUD +21 111
>Will_Anderson: EGGKQSU D2 KEG +20 114
#note Tricky move here. D2 KEG is setting up SQUEG/SKEG for 58 with E draw. Quackle slightly prefers just I7 KEG, scoring 5 fewer points, but holding an almost guaranteed 44-point SQUEG.
>Jackson: AINORST 7H AROINTS +67 178
>Will_Anderson: GGIQRSU 6I IGG +24 138
>Jackson: AHLNTTV C3 HALT +27 205
#note even with S implied, F2 VAT doesn't sim ahead of HANT or HALT. figured I should just outrun here, especially since it's not guaranteed he has an S. should keep LTV not NTV here, I figured with 3 Ls and 3 Ns out the typical difference was slightly smaller, and NT adds a bit of synergy to the leave. LTV is slightly preferred
>Will_Anderson: EFQRSUW -FW +0 138
#note Considered 5G FEW, but Jackson almost always plays down from H1 and blocks my SKEG. Probably have to play FEW anyway. Ex. FW sims a couple points back of it.
>Jackson: NNORTTV F1 TORN +10 215
#note I think this is good after his exchange
>Will_Anderson: DEEQRSU M3 QUES.ED +38 176
#note Just QUEERS here is fine, I wanted to open the lower right of the board, but giving up the case S really hurts.
>Jackson: AFIINTV N2 FIT +25 240
>Will_Anderson: ABEILOR L4 BO +20 196
#note Liked BO holding AEILR because it paired nicely with the B of BUD for -ABLE words, as well as 7s. But BILBO gunning for BILBOA hooks is compelling as well. Close.
>Jackson: AEIILNV B8 INVIA.LE +92 332
>Will_Anderson: ADEILLR 1F .RIALLED +80 276
#note Head in hands here as I came to grips with REALLIED#
>Jackson: EIPWXYZ A6 PYX +72 404
#note WEEPY was tempting, but after a big A column play I can lose to a bingo, which felt more likely than an immediate triple triple
>Will_Anderson: FJNPUVY 15A F.Y +27 303
#note Painful to give up and finally play this, not much better available.
>Jackson: EEIMTWZ B3 TWEE +32 436
>Will_Anderson: AIJNPUV N9 AJI +29 332
>Jackson: AEIMORZ O8 EMO +30 466
>Will_Anderson: ACNOPUV M11 OVA +14 346
>Jackson: AIMRRWZ 13I MIRZ. +19 485
>Will_Anderson: ACENNPU J10 PAN.C +21 367
#note Knew this wasn't right, had no time. There was a sweet sequence here: (Z)A setting up PUCE, which can only be blocked by RAW, after which Jackson is U stuck after I play (M)U I13.
>Jackson: ARUW K9 RAW +26 511
>Will_Anderson: ENU J1 .UNE +6 373
#note U stick still does better here, 12I UN saving 2A ETWEE.
>Will_Anderson: (U) +2 375
