>Jackson: EHLORUW H4 WHOLE +30 30
#note I thought a light consonant would help the U, lower chance of drawing bad clunky tiles along with it, but U is valued higher than RU statically. HOWLER sims about a point and a half up. I am sometimes too afraid of making floaters on the first turn. HOWLER looks nice
>Josh_Sokol: AADENOV 4H .AVED +24 24
#note josh saw G2 OVA and said after the game it might be best, I like it a lot. it sims a few ahead of WAVED or HAVE
>Jackson: ?IRRTTU 6F TR.UTIeR +61 91
>Josh_Sokol: AAIINOO J3 O.A.ION +10 34
#note noice
>Jackson: FGMOOSU 3I M.FOS +41 132
#note I thought GOOFUS was something my friends say, not a real word. eithe rway I like MOFOS best, seems worth over MOFO and sim backs up
>Josh_Sokol: ACEGILT 2L CIG +20 54
>Jackson: EGNORUZ 8J .RGONE +27 159
#note did not see ZERO/OMA, that seems solid enough. OUZO is more worth considering than I thought at t he time. I liked taking out CIGS but it isn't a huge threat really, and he often does not have an S. ORGONE seems worse than both these plays, ZU is famously bad and the Z doesnt have great options on the board.
>Josh_Sokol: AAEKLRT 1M KAT +31 85
>Jackson: GINNUUZ K8 .UING +14 173
>Josh_Sokol: ADELRTV O4 TRAV.LED +63 148
>Jackson: DNNOPUZ N10 PONZU +57 230
>Josh_Sokol: CEIRSTW 15L WIST +50 198
#note Josh regretted this choice after the game. Even in a sim, WIZ only sims about 2-3 ahead, but it is thematic and nice with PONZUS. he said he thought he had some read I might have an S
>Jackson: AADJLNT 13L AD. +26 256
>Josh_Sokol: CEEIQRS 5E QI +24 222
>Jackson: ?AEJLNT 2G JEAN +31 287
>Josh_Sokol: CEEEFRS G6 .EF +15 237
>Jackson: ?ILMPTX 9D MIXT +22 309
#note I was sad to see REF cause I was thinking of playing TIM(E)
>Josh_Sokol: CEEORRS 8A CORE +26 263
>Jackson: ?AHLOPY 12H HOA.Y +42 351
#note It was very hard to believe there were no bingoes here
>Josh_Sokol: BDENRSU 13D BURDENS +73 336
#note I think it has to be SIDEBURN or BURDENS here. BURDENS is nice cause to block the 11 row and the A and B column, I might have to sacrifice a lot and potentially get outrun. however, I can still do a better job of restricting all lanes besides the C column, whereas after SIDEBURN, having the 14 and 15 row means I can't play down the B column at B6, say, to take out everything, so Josh may have better access to the A and B column, even if it only means playing down to A12 or B13. SIDEBURN probably does a worse job of outrunning though, but in this case I think josh is not in a great position to outrun, so I would take the best bingo chances he has
>Jackson: ?BEILLP H12 ..LP +27 378
#note EPHEBI is nice
>Josh_Sokol: AAEEESY C5 YEA. +8 344
#note best endgame nice
>Jackson: ?BEIIL B6 BL.w +23 401
#note not best endgame at all. BLOOIE first off, but BIBLE is one better than that - saw it but dismissed it cause of SAREE, but given he has outplays everywhere and I cant block everything, I should do BIBLE to leave him with the worst out
>Josh_Sokol: AEES 14A EASE +12 356
#note ADZE is 5 better than EASE 14C
>Josh_Sokol: (EII) +6 362
