#note my original thought was ZE(E) F6 for 32. But then I saw this, and wondered if it could be worse. Quackle thinks this is around a 3-point error, which I find hard to argue with unless somehow Ricky plays more closed after ZE(E) such a significant amount of the time. #strategysmall

#note could be keeping ET. I wasn't sure, but thought I should try to get a blank a little bit more and use the v/c ratio and the T in OATH as further reasoning.
>RickySirois: ETV D1 VE.T +22 273
>JoshSokol: AAEIPTW N6 WA.AP +24 281
#note the E seems important to keep here
>RickySirois: ANUU I10 UNAU +12 285
>JoshSokol: DEILNTY 12H ..NDILY +24 305
#note important to keep the E still I think. I took a very long time here because I had the sense Ricky was primed
>RickySirois: ?EEIPTX 2H EXPIaTE +94 379
>JoshSokol: ?EIQSTV L1 Q.T +21 326
#note the problem here is that I almost never draw a word that starts in S, so if Ricky chooses to block UNAUS I will almost always lose. But it's still my only try here I think, unless Q(A)TS will outscore if he tries to block downstairs, but if he doesn't want to block downstairs he won't do it more after QATS


>RickySirois: IKLOOOR 1H ROO +31 410
>JoshSokol: ?CEIISV 14G vISCIVE +72 398
>JoshSokol: ?CEIISV -- -72 326
#note bad spread play. This is -60 spread, but I wasn't totally sure VISCIVE* was no good, even though I saw CIVVIES. #spreadSADDEST
>RickySirois: IKLMOO K4 LOOM +25 435
#note best endgame is (Y)OLK N12 setting up MOI
>JoshSokol: ?CEIISV 15C SCrIVE +45 371
#note with CIMO in the bag and me drawing 2, I had a 50% chance of bingo-ing out if Ricky played ROO.
