#player2 David_Brown David Brown
>Peter_Schwartzman: ?ABMNVX 8G MAX +24 24
#note Our first game of the day, 8 AM start. I, Peter, beat David yesterday but he had won our four previous (and only) meetings.

It is hard not to score 24 but Q says exchange BVX (leaving MAN?) with a 60% win% (while MAX is 58%).
>David_Brown: ACENORT 7G ENACTOR +79 79
#note best play, best spot, only bingo!
>Peter_Schwartzman: ?BGHNOV 9F HOB +20 44
#note I'd have BEHOVING if I had the E to play off of. Yet BOTH K5 18 pts is 1% better win% than HOB at 9F.
>David_Brown: RSTW L4 STR.W +24 103
>Peter_Schwartzman: ?AEGNUV 5J VA.U +14 58
#note AMAZING, there is no 7 or 8 in VANGUE? !
VAU K3 18 is better than VATU 5J by 3% win% pts.
>David_Brown: AZ 6I ZA +42 145
#note nice internal find
>Peter_Schwartzman: ?ACEGIN M7 .EAChING +77 135
#note RECANING M7 81 is better. I saw it but wasn't 100% sure so I reached for REACHING. The extra 4 pts of RECANING yields a +2% win%.
>David_Brown: PT 8L ..PT +27 172
>Peter_Schwartzman: ADEIITY 10L I.Y +16 151
#note Need an L for IDEALITY (only 8) but ICY is Q's best (33% win%)
>David_Brown: GLSU 14J GLU.S +22 194
>Peter_Schwartzman: ADEEIRT 15G REDIA +23 174
#note When I played this I thought "why are wasting all those bingo pro-tiles for 23"...but Q likes it the best! NABE H7 6 is a close second.
>David_Brown: DEKOY 14D YOKED +28 222
#note David's win% is 66% after this.
>Peter_Schwartzman: EELRTTU 15A LUTE +21 195
#note Only one possible 8 here (ROULETTE). LUTE is considered best by Q (TULE just a nick behind)
>David_Brown: ABP 13C BAP +24 246
>Peter_Schwartzman: EFIJORT 13G FOR +25 220
#note EMOJI G7 14 is a cute opening...didn't see it...FOR is 2nd best (1.5% behind)
>David_Brown: LLV 12L V.LL +16 262
#note closes off "my spot" next turn
>Peter_Schwartzman: EEJNOTT 10C JETE +20 240
#note Q's best choice, win% now 22%...others <20%
>David_Brown: ADHO 11C ODAH +41 303
#note best, 82% win%
>Peter_Schwartzman: DEIINOQ K1 OIDI. +8 248
#note Here I try to setup QI for 60+ next turn, or a big 3x3...I can't be defensive and there are few spots here, although D-EMO is a spot. Q says "xch IIOQ" with 7% win%, OIDIA has 5% win%
>David_Brown: ?EINORS 1H SpO.NIER +122 425
#note Yep...It was bound to happen (I said last night, "has anyone 3x3 in our division?") SWOONIER the other 122 play.
>Peter_Schwartzman: EFGINQS -FQ +0 248
#note at this point, the game is over...I am trying to get to 300...The Q has been giving me fits...so let him get it! Apparently, Q says exchanging (EINGQ) is 53 better in equity than exhanging (FQ). I doubt it.
>David_Brown: EIRW 3G WIRE. +14 439
#note It is hard to imagine this is the best play but when up 200 late it is hard to concentrate :)
>Peter_Schwartzman: EGINNOS O6 NO. +3 251
#note This is NOT my best play but 3rd. EON N1 6 is apparently the best. I wanted to avoid David dropping QAT. A Q-stick may be my only consolation.
>David_Brown: AEFIMU 2F MAE +19 458
#note He seemed to suggest he had FIQUE to places if the Q is the last letter. My hopes of Q-stick dashed!
>Peter_Schwartzman: EGINQST N3 QIS +20 271
#note my only non Q-stick...Q likes it, why wouldn't Q?
>David_Brown: EFINU O1 .EIF +31 489
#note best play
>Peter_Schwartzman: EGNT 10H ENG +14 285
#note best play
>David_Brown: NU 4F UN +8 497
#note best play
>David_Brown: (T) +2 499
