>JD: CNRTWXY 8G WYN +18 18
#note my bias is always toward centering plays, but that often changes holding the J, X or Z when you want to set up possible big overlaps. Q likes WYN at 8F at least in part because of the chance of a WEX/WOX bomb.
>Broersma: IJMM H4 JIMM. +27 27
>JD: CRRRTTX -CRRTX +0 18
#note I can't remember what I drew here, but I didn't even write the rack down. I'm pretty sure the Q was on it, hence the insta-exchange
>Broersma: AEILPRT I7 I.TERLAP +68 95
#note he didn't spot REPTILIA here, luckily for me
>JD: AIRSTTY 15C YTTRIAS +94 112
>Broersma: DIRW 10F WIR.D +21 116
>JD: AEGLOQV 11B GLOVE +23 135
>Broersma: BCEU 14A CUBE +25 141
>JD: AEIIIOQ -AIIIOQ +0 135
#note back they all go. I didn't bother writing this rack down either. I believe it was something like QAEIIIO. what's interesting is that Quackle prefers throwing everything back and not even keeping an E because both blanks are unseen and there are plenty of Es to come.
>Broersma: ADZ J5 ADZ +31 172
>JD: EEHILNO 14I .HENOL +38 173
#note big money! gimme a blank! c'mon!
>Broersma: AORU 15L URAO +22 194
>JD: EEEIIOR 12G OI.IER +14 187
#note big money! no whammies! gimme a blank! fwiw quackle prefers EERIE for 3 more. I like getting the F and P hooks on the board that he may not be confident in, but it's also a much more open play when he's had 4 turns to groom his rack. still sims worthwhile even if I assume he has a blank.
>Broersma: BERU 11I .UBE +26 220
>JD: EEEOQST -EEOQ +0 187
#note I believe this is the third time I pulled the Q. nice.
>Broersma: AH 13C AH +32 252
>JD: EGNOOST M5 GENTOOS +67 254
#note hey, I'm in the lead!
>Broersma: ??ILNRU B4 LURchIN. +61 313
#note uh...not anymore! I would give good money to watch Nigel find UNSIMILAR on this rack
>JD: ADENSTV A1 DAVEN +35 289
>Broersma: AFT A12 FA.T +39 352
>JD: AEIPSST 8A S.IP +24 313
#note oof, close to something useful.
>Broersma: COX N4 COX +56 408
#note the X spot is good for me since I need the volatility, just didn't work this time
>JD: AEEEEST B1 EE +11 324
#note nice. I dunno. Q likes EASE at L4 for spread, but I'd at least like to give myself some chance of bingoing out weirdness
>Broersma: DFGINOQ 13F QI +15 423
>JD: AAEEKST 8K TA.ES +18 342
#note should play AKEES here at L5 as a big overlap
>Broersma: DFGNO O5 DOG. +21 444
>JD: AEK 13M KAE +31 373
#note misscored as 27. this game was a shrug
>JD: (FN) +10 383
