#note I considered VIDE K3 as well for defensiveness, but noticed no I's were played yet after 1/4 of the tiles were played and thought it was better to get rid of both I's as a result. Quackle agrees.

#note I missed the beautiful S(E)G(N)I over the board, I sadly only registered when ANTELOPE came down is that isn't how you spell cantaloupe. VI(E)W looks good too.
>Billy_Nakamura: DERU D9 RUED +24 250
>Morris_Greenberg: AAIIKSV E5 VIA +17 272
#note I noticed the K spot at J14, and decided VIA has to be better than KIVA as a result. I somehow didn't think about just playing at that spot right now, SAKI looks good. Sim also prefers KIVA to VIA
>Billy_Nakamura: AEERSTU C3 AUSTERE +71 321
>Morris_Greenberg: AAIKNOS J14 KA +33 305
#note Quackle likes SAKI again, I liked keeping the last S here as a board shaping tool. KOAN D1 looks better than this though, I think I had tunnel vision from the previous turn.
>Billy_Nakamura: EHNW D1 HEWN +37 358
>Morris_Greenberg: ABINOSX 15J .XIONS +42 347
#note With Q, J, Z, ? out, I liked how this may be necessary to block for not many points and I could regain tempo. I missed INBOX M11 over the board, but I think I'd stick with this.
>Billy_Nakamura: FRY B1 FRY +27 385
>Morris_Greenberg: ABIMNOQ O10 NIQAB. +27 374
#note This is a poor choice. QI N1 is way better here, I just thought with the pool being so hefty bingos are unlikely and I should just pressure scoreboard-wise as much as possible while maximizing turnover to try to draw J, Z, ?, but ABMNO has a lot of synergy and bingos 16% of the time. Quackle says QI wins 25% of the time, this bingos 14.5%.
>Billy_Nakamura: IJ 14M JI. +37 422
>Morris_Greenberg: GMMOOTY K10 YOM +33 407
#note (C)OMMY followed by GOT is the best sequence, this is 12 points worse if Billy figures out an extremely tactical move order. It's a fun challenge to try to solve, download the game file if interested.
>Billy_Nakamura: ?DDEOTZ I1 .OZED +25 447
>Morris_Greenberg: GMOT M12 MO.. +33 440
#note MO(R)T 8A is 2 points better, I think I had tunnel vision here.
