>Ann_Elwood: ?AEITTT 8G TATTIEr +64 64
>Christopher_Sykes: EEILNVW 9E VIEW +19 19
>Ann_Elwood: AEMN E7 MA.EN +20 84
>Christopher_Sykes: DEILNRT D1 TRINDLE +72 91
#note Missed 10G TENDRIL for safety
>Ann_Elwood: F 10E .F +26 110
>Christopher_Sykes: ADNNOSY D11 ANNOY +26 117
#note ANODYNES, and I wondered about TANNOY (it is good). Hmm... probably missed the bingo due to wondering about TANNOY for so long and not coming back to "is there a bingo" thoughts.
>Ann_Elwood: DOR 15A DOR. +24 134
>Christopher_Sykes: BDHLLSS K7 B.LLS +14 131
>Ann_Elwood: AX C2 AX +38 172
#note Block the easier lines.
>Christopher_Sykes: CDEHNRS 1C S.ENCH +43 174
#note Having blocked the E now there is nowhere for DRENCHES, but I stand by BILLS anyway.
>Ann_Elwood: MOO 5D .OOM +14 186
>Christopher_Sykes: DEFJORS C7 FJORD +37 211
#note Nice equity - points and leave are good.
>Ann_Elwood: AH 8A HA. +39 225
>Christopher_Sykes: AEGIIRS 13A AGI. +10 221
#note Well, GAIN is safer (ZA at 12A). Quackle put my play well down the list. It prefers 13B GENII, G1 CIG, L6 GIE, 3B IXIA and some others. Hmm. Not sure why it likes GENII best since it leaves only 3 good tiles (ARS) whereas playing off GI leaves 5 good tiles (AEIRS).
>Ann_Elwood: CELOV M3 CLOVE. +22 247
#note F3 CLOVE for 27 looks nice, but CLOVER has safety benefits.
>Christopher_Sykes: EEIRSTU 6F RUE +13 234
#note FYI - I got away with the once-valid SUETIER at Reno. 7G UTE is the same idea as RUE but scores 5 more points. I ma have played too many tiles from this great rack. Quackle like 7G UTE, G4 EMU, 3L ECU, F4 ROUE. Bag looked vowel heavy to me.
>Ann_Elwood: GPU 10J P.UG +13 260
>Christopher_Sykes: BEIOPST 4L B.IP +22 256
#note BLIP is a risk but takes away my awkward BP combo. Dropping the B somewhere has a good leave of EIOPST.
>Ann_Elwood: ?EIQ O4 .IQuE +45 305
#note Well, that does put me in a tough spot. A12 QAID keeps the blank but leaves the O column wide open.
>Christopher_Sykes: EENOSST M10 .ET +4 260
#note QAID would have left me PENTOSES. I completely neglected the GETA hook concept. 9N ES is probably best, but the pressure to create a bingo line was quite strong. Hit and hope.
>Ann_Elwood: AK 12A KA +25 330
>Christopher_Sykes: AEGNOSS 3B A..NG +13 273
#note I figured AXING gave here the A column to think about, leaving me the row 13 bingo line. Quackle stills wants me to play a 2 letter word at 9N.
>Ann_Elwood: OTU J10 .OUT +8 338
>Christopher_Sykes: EOSSUYZ 14H SOYUZES +122 395
#note I knew SOYUZ but was not sure of SOYUZES. The score demanded that I try it. Lucky win.
>Ann_Elwood: AEEIIRW - +0 338
#note Pretty much a mandatory challenge.
>Christopher_Sykes: DIR 15G RID +21 416
>Christopher_Sykes: (AEEIIRW) +20 436
#note Last time I played Ann she had me beat and I weaseled out a win somehow. She is giving me a hard time!
