>Dave: HPSU L4 PUSH. +26 26
>Will: ADEGINV M3 VAGI +25 65
#note I came unbelievably close to playing EVADINGS*. Thank goodness I didn't. Interestingly, CP prefers my placement of VAGI over the 7G spot for 3 more points, which I don't think I considered. The N column lane I'm opening up playing at N3 instead of 7G (combined with the untouched lanes of BUFFY) gives me a whopping +12 extra bingo% (36% vs 24%).

#note I tanked forever on this turn, trying to find something I liked and failing. I nearly played M9 URENT# to cripple all the FORELEND# lanes. I didn't see 4J UNPAY#, which keeps the nice looking RENT leave, but that doesn't seem too smart at this score. Basically YRENT# doesn't do a heck of a lot other than score and block a tiny bit, but maybe I can play atop it next turn to finish off the FORELEND# lanes.

>Will: EEMNOUW 12I MU.E +25 242
#note Very fortunate Dave has to dump off his Q rather than open the board further.

>Will: AEEINSU E10 A.E +18 296
#note Looking at this game now, I'm surprised I would play AWE over AWEE in the same spot. Quackle prefers AWE, believing tacking the E on does very little to affect both Dave's and my bingo percentages on our next turns. That seems bizarre. How could AWE not allow more bingos to Dave? AWEE scores one more, doesn't make the easy E hook, and draws another tile into a bag with two blanks in it. The only negative for AWEE is that it doesn't keep an E, but there are four more to come, so that isn't a huge deal. Quackle favors M9 AUE, which accomplishes nothing but rack balance.
>Dave: BEIX 13C IBEX +33 287
>Will: EIIMNSU 14F UNI +16 312
#note Not sure what else to do on this move - NEUMIC draws more for blanks, but EIMS is a very nice leave for the letters in CENTAGE.
>Dave: AOV B12 OVA +29 316
>Will: AEIKLMS A8 MALIK +59 371
>Dave: ATT 15G ATT +17 333
>Will: AEEORSW B6 WOE +18 389
#note Hoping to block sevens on the B column and either draw blanks myself or force Dave to bingo in a way that lets me bingo back with a natural. The unseen tiles are incredibly bingo friendly.
