>Sid_Murali: LOX 8G LOX +20 20
>Arie_Sinke: AACEOTV 7D VACATE +28 28
#note I correctly evaluated that this play was better than OVATE 7E for 25, which has the liability of opening up 8A-E. I didn't really consider a short play like AVO for 17; and it looks like that's about even with VACATE. ACET bingos a lot next turn.
>Sid_Murali: ELZ E5 ZE.L +26 46
>Arie_Sinke: EGIJNOO 5C OO.ING +16 44
#note Nothing super inspiring, this looks like the best of my options. I could also play OOZE, which probably gives me a better chance of hitting 4A-D.
>Sid_Murali: BEEF B2 FEEB +37 83
>Arie_Sinke: AAEIJTT A1 JET +37 81
#note Looks right.
>Sid_Murali: FLOR 6I ROLF +19 102
>Arie_Sinke: AABIRTW 5J WAIT +28 109
#note Looks right.
>Sid_Murali: EINRSST N3 INSERTS +67 169
>Arie_Sinke: ABENNRT H1 BRAN. +27 136
>Arie_Sinke: ABENNRT -- -27 109
#note This is a poor attempt at bluffing. I think the defensiveness of Sid's play of INSERTS unnerved me; and fearful of falling further behind on a dying board after BRANT 4K I thoughlessly slapped down a phoney that kept a good leave and opened up a few floaters. This isn't even #.
>Sid_Murali: EIL O6 LEI +19 188
>Arie_Sinke: ABENNRT 4K BRA.T +35 144
#note This is correct; too bad I didn't play it last turn.
>Sid_Murali: AMNO H1 AMON. +27 215
>Arie_Sinke: ?DENNPS 1D PEND.NtS +63 207
#note Quackle wants me to wait and play SEND 4A. I think with the board being very closed I need to bingo right now.
>Sid_Murali: PU 3M P.U +22 237
>Arie_Sinke: ADEHIMS G1 .AH +24 231
#note Sim prefers EDH 4B by a small margin. I actually bingo more after EDH than DAH; the AEIMS leave looks vowel heavy, but it could potentially go well with the M9 spot, which requires a seven starting with a vowel.
>Sid_Murali: GU I1 .UG +20 257
>Arie_Sinke: DEIMNOS 2D OM +12 243
#note I talked myself out of playing EMODINS here. I just couldn't remember with 100% certainty that it was good.
>Sid_Murali: AGI D7 .AGI +12 269
>Arie_Sinke: ADEINRS D7 ....NA +20 263
#note This looks pretty good; obviously it bingos a lot next turn. I could also consider C3 ADO, which keeps the board tighter while biding my time with EINRS. I'm more comfortable with my play; I just feel like too many bingos don't play after ADO.
>Sid_Murali: DKOR E10 DORK +27 296
>Arie_Sinke: ?DEHIRS 14B aIRSHED +96 359
#note Highest scoring bingo.
>Sid_Murali: DEIQU 15H EQUID +60 356
>Arie_Sinke: ERTUWYY 9K RYU. +8 367
#note This looks best, keeping WYTE while blocking all of Sid's top scoring plays.
>Sid_Murali: ACEIIOV L11 VICE. +22 378
>Arie_Sinke: ETWY 15A WYTE +42 409
>Arie_Sinke: (AIO) +6 415
