>Will: AEINNRT 8F TRANNIE +66 66
>Bob: EFIRZ L3 FRIEZ. +36 36
>Will: DGGIORU 9L DUG +26 92
#note Tempting to play more closed, but when in doubt I just keep my pedal to the metal.
>Bob: DHL 5K H.LD +16 52
>Will: DEFGIOR 3I GOF.ED +32 124
>Bob: NX J2 N.X +12 64
>Will: EEIMRRU 4H MI.E. +29 153
>Bob: ?AEGLNS O6 LEASiNG +83 147
>Will: DERRRTU 5E TRUED +21 174
#note Other options include 11J RETURN to avoid keeping dupe Rs, 5G RUD# to keep an E, I3 GIRR# to keep better C/V balance, and several other plays. I did TRUED because I felt a bingo leave wasn't worth keeping without an S in hand for LEASINGS, and it scored as many points as I could get in this position.
>Bob: AJT 2M TAJ +28 175
>Will: ACOORRW 11K COWA. +20 194
#note At a different score, COWAN# over ROWAN would potentially be appropriate...or maybe if LEASINGS weren't good. Given that LEASINGS is in fact good and the score is nearly even, I have to play ROWAN.
>Bob: ALOO 7G ALOO +16 191
>Will: BELORRS 12L BER. +29 223
#note BERG yields an enormous and flexible scoring spot and bingo lane, whereas 9G BRO scores almost as well, keeps a better leave, and makes a second very specific bingo line for my S-containing leave (notwithstanding ARBA#). I played BERG pretty fast. Wish I had slowed down and spotted BRO because I would've for sure known it was far better.
>Bob: INQ 13K QIN +41 232
>Will: EEILORS 9B LOERIES +68 291
>Bob: AABCIOR B3 BRACIO.A +70 302
>Will: ?AEETUY C1 UEY +26 317
#note Already good equity and is surely especially correct with blank in hand.
>Bob: OY A7 OY +32 334
>Will: ?AEMNTW D8 M.TEWANd +80 397
#note This should've been D7 SWEETMAN#. Sacrificing 4 points to play METEWAND# higher up the D column isn't worth doing since I might need the points if he bingos back, and very few of his bingos would be triple-triples.
>Bob: UV 10A V.U. +9 343
>Will: AHIIPSV D1 HASP +45 442
#note Tough call here. There's POUTIEST 1A and STINKPOT 14A available to Bob and I can't block both. I figured maybe if Bob had the K he might be slightly likelier to try to score/fish it on this turn, and also that POUTIEST was a lock to come down as opposed the trickier find of STINKPOT. It perhaps saves me spread to block the huge scoring potential of plays like PISTE 14J, but in this situation I think HASP was called for.
>Bob: EIKOPST C13 KOI +29 372
>Will: IITV 14J TI +15 457
#note Didn't like that 14K IT allowed PETS for 30, but Bob's eventual play is also 30, so I should take the extra 4 points.
>Bob: EPST 11B ST.EP +30 402
>Bob: (IV) +10 412
