>Avery: ?EEILRR H7 RELIERs +64 64
#note ISC game from 1/25/17. I was really concerned about finding a bingo that didn't float an S or take an S (or another easy hook like EARLIER). LEERIER is probably better here - I don't remember if I considered it or not. Given Kevin's rack it's probably best.
>Kevin: AEORUVW 13C VROUW. +30 30
>Avery: DEGLNOU I2 LOUNGED +67 131
>Kevin: AAEIMRT 5E MARI.ATE +90 120
>Avery: CEEELNW 6E EWE +33 164
#note Debated between CLEW, EEW and EWE, but I figured he was likely to see the E hook. I think this is fine, and CP agrees.
>Kevin: AABFIPS H1 FAB +30 150
>Avery: ABCELNU 10C BACUL.NE +66 230
>Kevin: AAEIPST K2 APA.ITES +60 210
>Avery: HLMOPTU L8 THUMP +34 264
#note CP picks MOUTH in the same spot but without holding a vowel I don't like giving cheap points at M7 which has the potential to fork the board if I don't draw a hook letter to an EM? word (EMU or EME probably). I also don't see why opening a Y hook is a great idea, though he's likely to give me access to column O if he puts a Y there. Kevin pointed out the point of not keeping an O though with 5 unseen, so I guess it's fair, but I don't hate this play. 14E MHO is also ranked as the second choice but the three of these are all within 1%, for whatever it's worth. LPTU doesn't sem promising though, though I could be wrong.
>Kevin: CFIIINS J1 IF +28 238
#note I didn't see this coming
>Avery: ELOOQTX D9 Q.T +12 276
#note Tough play here. Apparently it did a good job throwing Kevin off since he had no idea what to infer from this. With an N or S draw I get a big play at L3, and as he pointed out, the X is good to score on this board, where even 25+ is valuable. CP's top pick is L3 OLE but I feel like that setup gets blocked a lot and then I still have a Q. I think for now I can be happy about this play.
>Kevin: CIIKNSY 3K .ICK +24 262
#note Kevin spent 6/15 minutes on here. PICKY is CP's pick followed by 4K AYIN, which would be good usually but as Kevin said, he has no good inference on what my leave was after QAT. I think PICK works out if I don't have a hook to it though, but I ended up being able to minimize its potential.
>Avery: ELNOOXZ 6K .LEX +29 305
#note CP's picks are 7B OZONE (which I don't think I considered for some reason), F12 OUZO (no), 7C ZONE (too many O's left), F12 LUX (3 E's unseen and a blank, and he's likely not too far from a bingo) and then my play. If I did this over OZONE would be my play just to give myself a chance at a 30something X play, but I would take ILEX over the other options I listed.
>Kevin: ADEINSY O1 DAY +37 299
>Avery: ?AGNOOZ 7C ZONA +34 339
#note I think this is straightforward.
>Kevin: AEEIINS E9 I.E +25 324
#note I figured he was vowel-heavy but was thinking he had an O by now...
>Avery: ?GNORTY 4B GYNO +22 361
#note Seems to give nothing back. I'm still not at 90% to win though - 89.41%. Wonder what that's worth.
>Kevin: AEINORS 8A ORA +20 344
#note Kevin sees N1 OAK to keep pressure, but this isn't a bad option.
>Avery: ?DHRSTV A5 THR. +7 368
#note Kevin suggests DEV first but I wanted to block the main bingo line and save DEV for next turn since that spot wasn't likely to go away... thoughts welcome here
>Kevin: DEIJNOS C2 JO. +26 370
>Avery: ?DGISSV M5 D.V +23 391
>Kevin: DEIINOS 2B E.IDO +30 400
>Avery: ?GINSST 13J pSST +19 410
#note The only win! pST ties.
>Kevin: EINOS N1 IN.S +23 423
>Avery: GIN 1D GIN +16 426
>Avery: (EO) +4 430
