>Jason_Li: EGP 8G PEG +12 12
>Arie_Sinke: DKQRSVY -DKQVY +0 0
#note This looks right. SKY doesn't score enough to be worth it.
>Jason_Li: EFIOOST J2 FOOTIES +77 89
>Arie_Sinke: EFIMNRS 4E ENSIF.RM +78 78
#note I forgot that FERMIONS was a word. It plays for 82 and is better than ENSIFORM.
>Jason_Li: ORZ H1 ZOR. +39 128
>Arie_Sinke: AEITUUW -AIUUW +0 78
#note I gave up too fast here - several plays score enough to be clearly worth playing. The clear best play here is AUTEUR 3C for 21.
>Jason_Li: DX E3 D.X +22 150
>Arie_Sinke: ?BEEOTV 9B OVErBET +73 151
#note Best bingo.
>Jason_Li: DLLSW D7 DW.LLS +28 178
>Arie_Sinke: ?LMNOPU B8 P.LONiUM +76 227
#note Only bingo.
>Jason_Li: ABRV 6F BRAV. +16 194
>Arie_Sinke: AAIIKNR 15A A.AIN +24 251
#note Missing KARRi K1 for 29, which is a clear improvement for equity, though this may have some value for averting worst case scenarios.
>Jason_Li: HORT A5 THRO +33 227
>Arie_Sinke: AAIKNOR B2 KORAI +31 282
#note Looks right.
>Jason_Li: ENTW C3 WENT +35 262
>Arie_Sinke: AEEEHNY 10F YEH +43 325
#note This is very close to YEAH 10F in the same spot for two fewer points and a better leave.
>Jason_Li: ACIL H8 ...ICAL +15 277
>Arie_Sinke: ADEINNU G13 DAN +13 338
#note Not sure what to do here. I don't think I should be inferring that Jason has an S here - then why not ETHICALS right away for 48? LINDANE 14H is a different idea that wins the sim, and if I had seen that I would probably have gone for it.
>Jason_Li: ACT 3L ACT +14 291
>Arie_Sinke: EEIINUU N2 E.UI +8 346
#note I'm not very comfortable in this position. Quackle thinks I should just exchange. I don't know if I should infer that Jason has an A or an S here. Probably an A at the very least. I'm okay with my play.
>Jason_Li: ADEEGG O5 DEGAGE +30 321
>Arie_Sinke: EIINRUY N10 YIN +27 373
#note Surprisingly, YE in the same spot wins slightly more endgames. It looks like this is because there are often ways for Jason to score well overlapping YIN with QI. I managed to hold on and win in the endgame that actually happened, but if Jason had an O instead of the A, for instance, I would be in trouble, because he could play QUITE and then go out with JO A1.
>Jason_Li: AEIJQTU M11 QUITE +41 362
#note QUIET is better to not give back REQUITE, but only by 2 points - it would still lose for Jason.
>Arie_Sinke: EIORSU L12 SOUR +23 396
#note I missed REQUITE, which would increase my margin of victory by 2.
>Jason_Li: AJ 9M JA. +26 388
>Jason_Li: (EI) +4 392
