>John_O'Laughlin: AIRW 3I WI.RA +24 24
>Evans_Clinchy: ADEGLOR 2J A.OLD +28 115
#note Note to self: AI takes a ton of hooks in badpods. This sims terribly because of defense. GON# and AGON in line J keep solid leaves and give nothing back; this lags about 6 points behind.
>John_O'Laughlin: ILNT 1G LINT +15 39
>Evans_Clinchy: EEGRTUZ 6J Z.G +33 148
#note Perhaps ZITE# is a little better.

>Evans_Clinchy: ABIITUU 1L BAIT +41 301
#note Hideous leave, but worth it.
>John_O'Laughlin: ?AEFOOS M6 SEAFOOd +78 272
>Evans_Clinchy: ?AAAIUU G12 AUA +11 312
#note Sim prefers PAUA# 6E for fewer points, attempting to run up the score with the blank in hand. At this score, I like playing defense better. Let him open the board for me.
>John_O'Laughlin: DEEJ L11 JEED +35 307
>Evans_Clinchy: ?AIITUV 14J VI. +15 327
#note Now Quackle wants to start getting defensive? VIRTU 10F? I'm confused. I think the right strategy is to score decently without giving him huge comebacks. I missed VITA 7C, which I like a lot.
>John_O'Laughlin: DEMY N8 DEMY +47 354
>Evans_Clinchy: ?AEISTU 10B ThESAU.I +61 388
#note The sim recommends not bingoing -- SUITE O11 for 32 over the bingo for 61. Disagree, since this board is kinda ugly and the bingo might not be available much longer. Plus I want more turnover to dig for O's for the ADO hook.
>John_O'Laughlin: FOOT O6 FOOT +39 393
>Evans_Clinchy: GGLLQUW D8 QU.LL +48 436
>John_O'Laughlin: EKMNOOT F12 MOKO +45 438
#note MOKO# and TOKO# are both good. They're the only two wins here. Nice play by John to eke this one out. I held, recounted the game on my time, and challenged since I had to.
