>Mark_Garrod: LUX 8G LUX +20 20
>Arie_Sinke: DEIORTW J4 TOWIE +27 27
#note Not sure about this rack - handwriting is illegible. If my 7th tile was indeed a D, DOWIE would be better.
>Mark_Garrod: BLO 5H OB.L +12 32
>Arie_Sinke: DKOPRRU K7 DROUK +35 62
#note This looks good.
>Mark_Garrod: AEEEIMN - +0 32
#note Mark challenged LUXER and DROUK.
>Arie_Sinke: ?ELPRVY 4B RePLEVY +95 157
#note This and oVERPLY look best.
>Mark_Garrod: FINT C3 F.INT +16 48
>Arie_Sinke: AEEGITZ E3 G.AZE +30 187
#note This is okay. GAZE L2 scores 5 more with the same tiles but sims worse because it unnecessarily creates the AGAZE hook. GEEZ F3 gets four more points but keeps a more vowel heavy leave; it sims slightly ahead of this play. GEEZ/OBOLE scores 5 more but suffers from keeping AIT instead of a leave with an E. TERGA B2 for 28 also sims well but is too aggressive for my taste. Any of those plays or my play would be okay.
>Mark_Garrod: INO L11 ION +12 60
>Arie_Sinke: DEGIOTU B2 DI.GE +30 217
#note I saw OUTGUIDE the moment I typed the position into Quackle. Should I take the chance with a large leave? I don't know, but I would have probably done it if I had seen it. This is the best non-bingo.
>Mark_Garrod: DEM A1 MED +28 88
>Arie_Sinke: EEOSTUW A6 WOE +24 241
#note Trying to be defensive and score a few points. This looks fine.
>Mark_Garrod: ACEEIRT 13G ITERA.CE +74 162
>Arie_Sinke: BEQSTTU O13 SUQ +47 288
#note This looks fine; BEQUEST probably isn't worth it.
>Mark_Garrod: IP F2 PI. +14 176
>Arie_Sinke: BDEINTT H10 BIT.ED +30 318
#note I could add the N on top of this play to form UNBITTED and garner 6 extra points. It looks far better than my play.
>Mark_Garrod: Y 10H .Y +7 183
>Arie_Sinke: AANNTTV F2 ...TA +24 342
#note With a poor rack and few appealing options I opt to grab a few easy points. This isn't very good. I should play something like TANNATE 14B for 20 or AVANT M7 for 17 to clean out the rack at the expense of very few points.
>Mark_Garrod: AEHINRS D7 HERNIAS +78 261
>Arie_Sinke: AENNOTV C12 NOVA +20 362
#note This looks fine, scores and the leave is good and blocks a lot of bingos.
>Mark_Garrod: AN 15A AN. +9 270
>Arie_Sinke: ?EEFLNT E11 FEEL +30 392
#note This looks best; it's less likely to bingo than some alternatives but scores well.
>Mark_Garrod: AGRSS L1 GRASS +23 293
>Arie_Sinke: ?HJNOOT 2I THO.N +16 408
#note This is okay, threatening to go out with GOJi and forcing Mark to block. A slightly better alternative is JaNE N10 for 26, setting up HOOT and allowing me to go out in two with plays totaling 57 points.
>Mark_Garrod: AACIMRU 1L .AMA +23 316
#note Mark is correct to block GOJi here.
>Arie_Sinke: ?JO 1G JOe +28 436
#note Best out.
>Arie_Sinke: (CIRU) +12 448
