>Fran_Silver: ACIOR 8D CORIA +20 20
>Jim_Burlant: ABDDNRV H4 VAND. +13 13
#note 7G BAND looks better - this is so so.
>Fran_Silver: DGIS F6 GI.DS +13 33
>Jim_Burlant: BDFIIRT 5G F.TBIRD +26 39
#note No arguing that I whiffed on my last turn, but I got this one right. The only other play worth consideration is BARFI which gives up a few too many points on the scoreboard. This is best.
>Fran_Silver: EGSY M3 SE.GY +28 61
>Jim_Burlant: EIINOOR D2 ONEIRI. +18 57
#note Still early, but...these racks - yuck! A bunch of mediocre options again - Q thinks 6F GENII is best, otherwise should just fish with J5 BIO or J4 OBI. I didn't think EINOR was worth giving up 11 points given that she was turning tiles with both blanks unseen.
>Fran_Silver: BO C2 BO +16 77
>Jim_Burlant: AIOOOUZ E10 OUZO +28 85
#note How bad can these racks get? This was so bad I never even saw 1A ZOA. As many easy points as this gives away on row 12, I don't have a choice; I've got to dump as much of this as I can while I unload the U. This is best. Pretty much getting nowhere at 40% to win.
>Fran_Silver: IV 7K IV. +9 86
>Jim_Burlant: AINNOQT B1 QAT +37 122
#note It's either this or 7C QI. I'd rather take the 37 points. Finally making progress - 55% to win.
>Fran_Silver: EHRT 12A HERT. +42 128
>Jim_Burlant: CFIINNO A8 FINC. +39 161
#note Nothing else worth consideration. For reference, CHINO A11 only wins 49% and sims 7 pionts down. I'm still treading water, now at 54% to win instead of 40%.
>Fran_Silver: IJNS 14B JINS +36 164
>Jim_Burlant: AIKLNOS B6 KOA +22 183
#note How do I not see OAK C5? That said, my best play is 4K KOEL and that makes a lot of sense: I have the case S and it sets up a clear run at the O column. KOEL wins 65%, this wins 60.
>Fran_Silver: AE 6F .A.E +12 176
>Jim_Burlant: EILNRSW C2 ..WL +16 199
#note Getting close to something...FINALLY. It's either this or BOW. 66.7% to win in a short sim.
>Fran_Silver: EE L7 .EE +7 183
>Jim_Burlant: EILNRSX M9 XI +34 233
#note I hated the consonant overloaded leave, but figured that 34 points was too much. Though a sim thinks this is best, I think REX 10L looks better since it doesn't give her easy 6's at K9.
>Fran_Silver: OW 15A WO +24 207
>Jim_Burlant: ELNRSUY K9 RULY +24 257
#note Or LUNY. E3 YEN scores 31, but this game is too close for me to leave this open.
>Fran_Silver: AP 12K .AP +16 223
>Jim_Burlant: ?EMNSTU C12 .U.N +14 271
#note Was hoping upon hope that she would make a mistake and open up a line for my game-clinching bingo,so I played this to stay out of the way. Q says I had the right idea, though I shortchanged myself on the scoreboard: the duck likes C10 MUREIN, which I never saw.
>Fran_Silver: DEP 4K PE.D +22 245
>Jim_Burlant: ?EEMOST J10 ME +22 293
>Fran_Silver: EGM I9 MEG +18 263
>Jim_Burlant: ?OST N2 TO.S +26 319
#note Game was obviously clinched and I stopped writing my racks down. I realized that, by now, the sole thing I had to do was play for points since she wasn't going to open any lines up.
