>Michael_Fagen: CDEIRT 8D CREDIT +24 24
>Josh: EEENOWY 9E EWE +18 18
#note I wronte down PRE, NON, DIS and MIS. I doubt PRE- is valid. MIS- is CSW-only. This, E(E)EW for defense, F6 WE(E)NY, EWE on top, and E(R)ENOW E7 are very close. #questionable
>Michael_Fagen: BEY 10E BEY +30 54
>Josh: ENNOOOY 8A NON...... +36 54
#note I guess...
>Michael_Fagen: GIPRS 11A GRIPS +28 82
>Josh: EINOOSY A11 .OONY +30 84
#note close between this and GOOEY, as anticipated. GYNIE for points is not worth the far inferior leave.
>Michael_Fagen: ACTTU 13A .UTACT +16 98
>Josh: AAEILMS 7H MALAISE +68 152
>Michael_Fagen: AADGKNX N5 AX.D +28 126
#note actual rack. This is top equity by 4.5 points, but Quackle prefers 6L GAD by a few points. Michael can draw XI or XU for 38 next turn, and this deals with a lot of the threats as well. Tough to play defense in this position though. This might still be the right call
>Josh: ADGIOUZ O8 AZIDO +57 209
>Michael_Fagen: AEGKNNS L2 SNEAK.NG +78 204
>Josh: EGOUUVV O1 VOGUE +32 241
>Michael_Fagen: AEJST N10 TAJES +44 248
>Josh: IMNORUV 14J VIRU. +16 257
#note A lot of choices here as well. 13I UNROV(E) to race to a bingo trade, most likely. MOUR(N)IN(G) 3H to score and turn over. K1 MOURN for a more defensive variety of MOURNING. And this. I should have spotted MOURNING and UNROVE, only considered this vs MOURN. #questionable
>Michael_Fagen: FLW B6 FL.W +18 266
>Josh: AIMNOPR 2E RAMPION. +66 323
>Michael_Fagen: FLU L12 FU.L +16 282
>Josh: ABDEEOT A1 DEBATE +35 358
#note not sure how I could have missed 1A BOATED in this position. Luckily this is still likely better given the usefulness of the O
>Michael_Fagen: ??HILQR K11 QI +27 309
#note thought he would have to play I1 Q(I) if he 1) didn't want to empty and 2) wanted to prevent me from outscoring. But I should always be able to outscore anyway, he can't hit anything from the Y. This seems like the best practical shot.
>Josh: EHIOORT 1G HOOT +44 402
#note E(P)HOR blocks PARHELIA. I did the math and saw this should win by at least 1. Not Nigel yet.
