#note Given that Joan is likely keeping an S and held TALARIA (so doesn't know it's definition), she might try TALARIAS* plays here I thought if she has a bingo. Row 7 is also an easier bingo line, so I thought the 3 point sacrifice made sense here. Quackle prefers the K11 GYM though.

>Morris_Greenberg: AEEGINO D6 AGONI.E +18 140
#note GENOI(S)E, a lot more As have been played off than Es that keeping an A over E looks fine here, and a lot more hooks available off of AGONISE.

>Morris_Greenberg: EEHINOU 8L .UNE +12 152
#note This is just a weird move by me that Quackle dislikes (4.5% behind their top simming play of NIE(V)E, but I think as long as I miss the better version of this (LIEU in the same spot), I am fine playing more slowly here and directly opening the board at a more opportune time. One similae option I didn't consider is HUE E4, though I might still prefer obstructing the N6 hotspot and keeping an H over the N here with 4 Ns unseen.
>Joan_Buma: KOR 12A KOR. +19 163
#note Joan initially counted this for a lot more points and hit her clock immediately. I realized she scored it as if she hit the double word score that the E in AGONISE is covering. After the correction, she seemed disappointed by her play choice.

>Morris_Greenberg: CEGOTWZ 4L C.EW +26 211
#note Choosing between G(R)OW, G(R)EW, C(R)OW, and C(R)EW is interesting here. There are 6 unseen Es vs 1 unseen O, so I thought that pointed towards shedding the E. I also thought the G pairs better with the Z on this baord, so chose CREW. Quackle likes GREW most, the CREW, then CROW, then GROW.

#note Too cute of an endgame, I missed JN(AN)A, but I decided to block (E)LITE over taking the points with JE(AN). The problem with this is, if Joan blocks JE(AN), the J scores poorly.
