>Nathan_Benedict: BCIT D4 BITC. +24 52
>JD: EEKMNOT C3 MOKE +32 115
#note this took me a long time to find. I was kinda tired and gross from my cold.
>Nathan_Benedict: AILP E3 LIPA +38 90
>JD: ENOOTUY I3 YO +20 135
#note I didn't want to open a lane with OY/BITCHY, but missed the solution - tacking on the E for OYE and not giving up a lane. this isn't too much worse.
>Nathan_Benedict: AJ F2 JA +27 117
>JD: ENOPRTU F8 .UP +12 147
#note pretty aggressive, but not much else I can do
>Nathan_Benedict: AEELNTY 11F ENTAYLE +77 194
#note didn't think of the V hook right away, sadly
>JD: EGINORT J2 GENITOR +73 220
>Nathan_Benedict: AAF 10J FAA +34 228
>JD: ANOTTUW B6 WOT +29 249
#note playing here is definitely a gamble, but there are two other TWS spots open and the VENTAYLE hook, so it's not insane. I should probably have put down WONT for defensive purposes (also because there are 27 consonants and 18 vowels left, so a vowel-heavy leave will fare better than usual). but it's close.
>Nathan_Benedict: ISU A7 SUI +17 245
>JD: AEINOTU H11 .ATOU +18 267
#note playing with fire - probably the defining move of the game, either he bingos through my play, or I have a fair chance of bingoing first and taking a lead.
>Nathan_Benedict: AHOS 12C HOAS +22 267
>JD: ?DEINNV M8 VENDINg +91 358
#note really kills the board, better in my opinion than the 95 for UNDIVINE.
>Nathan_Benedict: BFIINRS -BFII +0 267
>JD: BCIOSUZ C11 C.IZ +36 394
#note CHUB is really close to this, since it leaves great scoring plays. But I'll still get to cash VENDINGS whenever I want.
>Nathan_Benedict: ADDE 14A DA.ED +32 299
>JD: BEFORSU K5 FOB +32 426
#note Q likes blocking A15 with BUDO.
>Nathan_Benedict: ESW A12 WE.S +36 335
#note I totally messed up my tracking and emptied the bag by accident! oh no! had I seen the pool clearly,
>JD: AENRRSU 15K URSAE +29 455
#note I totally messed this play up because I mistracked. Should play short and save the U for SUQ/VENDINGS. VAR actually gives up a minuscule shot at LEXIGRAM/REMIGIAL, but even then I should still win. maybe just GRAN at G8.
>Nathan_Benedict: EIMQRRR K1 QI +14 349
#note he doesn't have to play the Q yet - should block XI with EMIR at 13A.
>JD: GILLNRX 15D XI +37 492
