>Arie_Sinke: ?ADINRU 8F IRAcUND +68 68
#note Several 68 point bingos are available. This one is unhookable, difficult to overlap, and puts no vowels next to bonus squares.
>Tim_Anglin: AIIO L6 OI.IA +6 6
>Arie_Sinke: EEGHLTY K3 GLEY +21 89
#note Playing EGLY for 21 points is clearly called for here, but it looks like I made the worst play positionally that fits that criterion. GLEY at M3 sims better, possibly because I often get something with HOY, and GLUEY J6 looks more defensive in general.
>Tim_Anglin: ?EEMORT 9B REMOTEs +66 72
>Arie_Sinke: EHOOTTU 8A TETH +48 137
#note The leave is poor but TETH is worth it for the points.
>Tim_Anglin: EGHILS M9 SLEIGH +27 99
>Arie_Sinke: EIIOOUU -IIOOUU +0 137
#note An uninteresting and obvious choice.
>Tim_Anglin: CDEOV M2 COVED +29 128
>Arie_Sinke: EELMNOT 15K MOTEL +35 172
#note I thought it would be worth it to give up 3 points and hang on to the N. Quackle say no; MELTON/MOLTEN/LOMENT sims better in the same spot.
>Tim_Anglin: BOR 7D ORB +18 146
>Arie_Sinke: AENRRTX 10E REX +32 204
#note This looks right.
>Tim_Anglin: CELNOR 11A CLONER +29 175
>Arie_Sinke: AIINQRT E2 QINTA. +30 234
#note Looks like QI 12L hits bingos often enough to be worth it, by a fairly small margin. I prefer to take the points and constrict the northwest quadrant with a lead. QI can really go south when I miss my bingos.
>Tim_Anglin: ISYZ 12F SIZY +34 209
>Arie_Sinke: FIJPRTU 3B FUJ. +28 262
#note This looks right; CRUFT A11 for 33 doesn't score enough more to be worth keeping the J, plus FUJI really constricts the northwest quadrant.
>Tim_Anglin: INS H12 .INS +39 248
>Arie_Sinke: AAEIPRT O8 PARIETA. +83 345
#note Only bingo.
>Tim_Anglin: IPU 2E .UIP +17 265
>Arie_Sinke: AABDENW A11 .AWED +36 381
#note Looks best.
>Tim_Anglin: KOSU 1G SOUK +38 303
>Arie_Sinke: AAABFNW 4J F.A.A +22 403
#note I liked this out in two, but there is a slightly better option - NAWABS 15D, which forces Tim to block my outplay of FAN 14F for 31. This will work out well if BAWN doesn't get blocked.
>Tim_Anglin: DEGNOV 13A .OVEN +22 325
>Arie_Sinke: ABNW K10 BAWN +23 426
>Arie_Sinke: (DG) +8 434
