#note exchanging is still better. keep ABEL, -2

>cesar: AABEEOT K5 BOA +13 21
#note this was a tough move. i didn't find ADOBE, but i'm not sure i would have played it if i did. K10 AE might be ok too. i sacrificed three points (which i don't usually do) to not play K10 ABO, which seems to give back a lot more points. Quackle suggests it only gives back about 3 more pts than BOA. -5.5. i think i would play AE or ADOBE here i guess.
>david_teich: DEIORRV L7 DROVER +27 48
#note VOIDER L4 is better with his rack, but not because of turnover, which he had asked about. turnover is very rarely worth points (and it's actually often worse as you sacrifice good leaves), except if close to the end of the game and both blanks are still out, or there's a race to a specific letter that will almost certainly determine the game, etc.
>cesar: AAEEEQT H6 AQ.AE +14 35
#note i keep wilfully sacrificing equity to play defense; EQUATE sims neck and neck. i definitely prefer AQUAE. NOW EVERYONE STOP SAYING I HATE CLOSED BOARDS. i love them. feed them to me. -1

>cesar: EHLRSSY K11 HEY +30 105
#note oof, bad. i saw DUCKY, but i didn't look hard enough. there's something in my head that says stuff like LRSS and EHRS aren't that far apart, but obviously they clearly are. 11I LYS(E) is much better. i also wanted to continue playing defense. if you were to show me LYSE or LYRE vs HEY/YEH, i would definitely choose the former, but i really thought it was much closer than it actually is (because i didn't look super hard there). this is a 16 pt equity mistake!

#note 15H OWED is fine. i know he can't use the H there, but my play gives him back an easy dump. -8
