#note This sims best, significantly better than CHOW. LRS is one of those leaves that can easily leave you without much scoring possibility. HRS bingoes slightly less often, but scores better on both bingo and non-bingo plays.
>Phil_Robertshaw: AIRSZ 10H SIZAR +44 62
>Dave_Koenig: AEEHORS 11J OH +31 53
#note Slightly better than EH for two reasons: AEERS is more bingo prone than AEORS, and creating a second S hook makes it more likely that bingos will play.
>Phil_Robertshaw: IO 12J OI +20 82
>Dave_Koenig: ADEEORS M4 OREADES +75 128
>Phil_Robertshaw: OTY L2 TOY +22 104
>Dave_Koenig: ?EELNVW N2 ViNEW +57 185
#note I think I was right to burn the blank here. There isn't a good way to play both the V and W at the same time, and my bingo chances won't be great on the next turn even with the blank. However, I chickened out of the significantly better VeNEWE in the same spot, which nicely locks down the O column. I consoled myself that the EL leave is nice, but Phil was able to pounce on my mistake immediately.

#note There are only four vowels unseen, so I was very happy to keep a bunch on this rack, including a useful U for the Q. When I saw that I drew two more vowels and that the Q was still out there for Phil, I knew that I was very likely to win.

>Dave_Koenig: EEHILUU 2F HE.E +30 465
#note Blocking both QI 3G and QAT 2J
>Phil_Robertshaw: ACDFGMQ 9C Q.A +22 453
#note Phil has to burn his only vowel to dump the Q and is stuck with drek.
>Dave_Koenig: GILUU 10B GI. +19 484
#note I missed the spot for LULU on the next turn, but LING and ULU nets one more point.
>Phil_Robertshaw: CDFGM 3G G.F +28 481
>Dave_Koenig: LUU C5 ULU +8 492
#note LULU G11 scores 10.
