>Noah: EEEIOPY -EEIOY +0 0
#note Interesting, static evaluator rates EPY as the best leave in this rack. Rafi and Carl seemed confident that EYE is the play here. 8E YIPE and 8F EYE are on top after 3131 iterations of 4-ply, YIPE 2.4 ahead of my choice.
>Steve: AEGIOTU -GOUI +0 0
#note Steve exchanged -- presumably GIOU. He said he later realized this was an overreaction to my exchange, since I only kept two tiles.
>Noah: AEEHIJP 8F JEEP +26 26
#note Wasn't sure.
>Steve: AEKT F8 .AKE +25 25
#note Seems like he should have a T here.

>Steve: BET 11E B.ET +20 157
>Noah: ?ABGLNY A8 BLAG +38 179
>Steve: AIILO 12H AIOLI +15 172
#note He played this quickly, which made me think he was less likely to have an S.
>Noah: ?LNORYZ J12 .OZY +36 215
#note Hm, didn't think of ORZO. The leave looks nicer and the spot I give away looks worse, except perhaps for triple-triples. But the score is still close. Per a sim, Steve's next turn average is about the same either way, but ORZO scores about 18 more points on average on my next turn. Pretty good! Part of the explanation must be that LNY? meshes a lot better with the B2 spot than LNR?, and that the Y scores better than the R when I do bingo.
>Steve: AEEO 14J .OEAE +28 200
>Noah: ?AILNNR 15H LA.IN +32 247
>Steve: IIILMNT 10I NIM +22 222
#note Steve considered fishing his I for UNLIMITED but decided that was too crazy.
>Noah: ?DEGNRV 7M VEG +21 268
#note I can get a much better next turn average with other plays, like D(A)G, G(I)V(E)N, and N(A)G, but I think VEG has merit here because it blocks DEPAINTS.
