#note Missed a better play here - NUPTIAl I2 for 73. I don't think I knew the word CRURAL.
>Fern_Lindzon: AMV 1F VAM. +33 87
>Arie_Sinke: DEIIJOO 13A EJIDO +38 144
#note This looks best.

>Arie_Sinke: CINOOOS 5E ONIO. +10 154
#note This play does not pass muster with Quackle. I ought to be making more of a pure fish here. This barely scores anything so scoring 7 with something like OOH 9B isn't much of a sacrifice.
>Fern_Lindzon: DEFIOST 14E FOISTED +70 190
>Arie_Sinke: BCLORSY 4A COLBY +35 189
#note This looks good.

>Arie_Sinke: EENRSUX A2 EX.USER +48 237
#note This is fine.
>Fern_Lindzon: AAPZ C3 P.AZA +34 267
>Arie_Sinke: AEEGNOS 13J GONE +18 255
#note Tough position. Several options are reasonable, including my play. The sim likes GUANO 4H, which scores three more points while creating an S hook for the case S, which I hold - that's probably slightly better than my play.
>Fern_Lindzon: EEIV 3F EVI.E +12 279
>Arie_Sinke: AAELNNS 12K NAN +17 272
#note Not sure what to do here. Sim says I should be aggressive and set up a more dangerous S hook with a play like LANE/NANA/NAAN at 12K. I am really not favored here with a slight deficit and a blank out, so volatility is probably my friend here.
>Fern_Lindzon: ADEEILM 9H .EMAILED +63 342
>Arie_Sinke: ?AELLSY 15H ....Y +15 287
#note Here I decided that I didn't have a way to win by bingoing, so I would have to bide my time and hope to bingo out. It turns out that this play only wins 1 out of 8 possible endgames (If I get the O, I will have bingos down both columns K and O, and Fern can't block both or score enough to outrun.) mESALLY K1 wins 2/8 possible endgames, so it looks like that's the better play.
>Fern_Lindzon: DGIORTW O6 GOW. +27 369
>Arie_Sinke: ?AEKLLS K3 SLAKE +27 314
#note This game was winnable - all I had to do was find SELAmL(I)K L3 for 74, which would win by 2.
