>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: DEGGNUV D8 .UGGED +24 24
#note I should probably do 9I GUV. NV isn't great synergy and DGNE has a decent chance to bingo on this board. I was very nervous about how easily Jason could kill the board after GUV. A four-letter word underlapping HAR, or a five through the R, for example, would block almost all bingos. The sim still thinks I'm overthinking this.

>Jason_Keller: AEIINOT 13B IO.INATE +72 178
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BEHLNPV 9I HELP +32 92
#note Not a fan of killing the SKIN hook, but Jason will probably do it very soon anyways. I need these points.
>Jason_Keller: ANRXY K9 .ARYNX +32 210
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ADNSTVW B10 DAV.T +26 118
#note Now it seems necessary to fork the board a bit. LARYNX makes bingoing tough
>Jason_Keller: BSU 12I BU.S +22 232
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ADFGNSW M3 WAF. +20 138
#note I was going to burn the S with FAWNS, but knowledge of another S on Jason's rack means that there is at most one S left in the bag. So I was nervous about spending mine. WAFT is not very promising, but at least it maintains hope of an ING bingo.This is a significant and clear mistake, though. Since a bingo through the I still leaves me way behind. I need to take points for FAWNS now, so that my future bingo actually gets me back in the game. Big error.
>Jason_Keller: EEV A8 VEE +21 253
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: DEGIMNS 15B SMIDGEN +96 234
#note There's the huge break I needed. Maybe not deserved after the questionable WAFT.
>Jason_Keller: OZ L4 ZO. +51 304
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: BCEIIOT 8L OBIT +26 260
#note I will need to bingo again. This opens things up a little. EXOTIC is the other option. I can possibly catch up without a bingo if Jason has nothing through the C.
>Jason_Keller: AEEIMRS O3 EMIRA.ES +63 367
#note Punished. He had SMEARIER anyway though.
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ACEIIOR 14J I.ORA +28 288

#note Hail Mary, full of grace....
>Jason_Keller: ELL 15M ELL +13 392
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ?CDEIOU 13M ECU +21 325
#note My thinking was that it would be necessary to score well, or else my bingo on row 1 could be outrun. But this is not true. There is a Q in the bag, so Jason will either be forces to score poorly to dump it, or eat it as deadwood. So I should not worry so much about scoring. 11D GUIDE is simming better because it blocks QUA and gives me more turnover for a shot at NNRRSTT, which I need to draw desperately.
