#note cool play

#note missed OREAD, which at least is a better version of this play. EAU 15M is also worth considering over this. I thought about UDO/LITU as well, but I don''t see a great reason to play it.
>Josh_Sokol-Rubenstein: CEEHIJO D12 JEE. +40 353
>Jackson_Smylie: EENORUU B4 ROUEN +13 385
#note ENURE seems like a better version of this play at the very least. The problem with ROUEN or ENURE is that it lets him make some specific fishes, as he did, but it's usually not a huge worry cause he can't have the X or Q to do those, plus he has to avoid them with his fishes. I didn't consider UNDUE or exchanging here, which are great options. UNDUE is solid just for rack balancing, but it starts to look worse once you permute the plays he can have, mostly the X plays that leave 2 in the bag, or occasional stuff like HILL. QUICHE could be bad but at least empties the bag. I think exchanging is likely better than UNDUE here, since exchanging is nice for timing - after his play, I'll likely be able to leave 1 or 2 in the bag as I please, and I can exchange down to ER to reach fo the X here. I still think outrunning looks like the best route though, since exchanging/undue open the door to getting fully dommed by a big scoring play. ENURE and ROUEN are champ's fave plays, with ENURE of course being technically better overall.

#note great fish - he hits with EELLL for ORCHILS/HEROICS
>Jackson_Smylie: AELLLUX A8 AXLE +39 424
#note this is bad - I considered QUICHE but didn't fully math it out - if he has QICHEIS, I can only tie after QUICHE-OUR-IS/COPAYS, and if he has QICHEOS, I lose to QUICHE. Gotta play LEX E3 or AX B1 or whatever to at least block that - nothing I can do to beat the CEHIORS rack. CEHIORS is most likely cause I assume that's what he's fishing for, but if he had CEHIIOS with GI, he could totally draw into QUICHE + OS and win. bad endgame play to top off the series. definitely deserved the 0-5 this time round
