>Chloe: EEIIKNU -EIIKU +0 0
#note Considered KUE, exchanging down to EIN, and down to EN. Looks like EIN is a better leave than EN, but overall KUE is fine.

#note Barry said he got confused with french scrabble, which this is acceptable in

#note I like this better on the left, doesn't set up the annoying X bomb which will be hard to block, though my placement sims slightly higher

#note Should do C6 EERIE. I figured he had low pointers with his last play so I wouldn't get burned on the scoring spot that E(V)E sets up, but even so, this is a pretty big error.

>Barry_Keith: BIS A13 SIB +18 216
>Chloe: ?AEFIOP 2I .F +27 259
#note My play surprisingly bingoes more than A8 OAF, and also takes out the scoring spot. Q prefers OAF by a couple points, but I think this is fine.

>Chloe: ?AEIIOP J10 POI +24 283
>Barry_Keith: GRST 12H GR.ST +32 283
>Chloe: ?AAEIOY A8 YA +20 303
#note should do YEA instead. I saw the pool was so conso heavy and felt him bingoing was so unlikely, and wanted to keep the E since there was only one other left. He is at 3% to bingo after YEA vs. 5% after YA, so it's pretty low chances either way, but just to avoid the worst case scenario I should do YEA.

#note worst case scenario
>Chloe: ?AEIORS 15A .AROnIES +80 383
#note 1A OBIA or ABRI look good, leaving 2 in the bag is good to force him to either play only one tile or let me bingo out. Leaving 1 in the bag would be better but there's not any great plays that do that. OBIA bingoes the most apparently, at about 75%, and ABRI is at about 70%. With BARONIES I was hoping to draw the Z or ZS and outscore him, but I think going for the out bingo will win more.

#note 1-6, my worst tournament ever! I made some big errors, but it doesn't feel too much worse than I had played at other recent tourneys, so I'm not sure what to make of this.
