#note I5 QI does a bit better than this. I wondered about that. Sets up my D and sets less up for Steve, and the leave is more palatable. Quackle likes exchanging down to DEIN or DEN as the other two candidates. #questionable

#note the unseen Z spooked me here. I should really take away that triple and sacrifice 2 points according to the duck. Not sure. Gonna be a bit behind regardless most of the time. -2.5 #questionable

#note the only situation I've found where Steve doesn't lose and doesn't bingo is with APRSUXY. Optimal sequence there ends in a tie.

Maybe there is another example, or a few other examples, but I doubt it. After this, Steve bingos 3.5% less than the 13C placement, so this should win at least 3% more often. He has a bingo less than 5% of the time with no rack inference, but it's maybe a bit higher than that, considering the play of (T)IZ.
