>smylie: AAARRTT H4 TARTAR +14 14
#note oh didn't see ATTAR, that looks a bit better
>sokol: EHIIMNN 5G H.EMIN +22 22
#note this really didn't seem like the sort of play I would normally make in a position like this. Keeping things a bit more tight and keeping better with G3 HIN was the fiirst thing I considered, for a decent amount of time too. Quackle agrees that this is substandard. HIN hits a bingo 10% more and scores better than HAEMIN. #strategysmall
>smylie: AADEERU - +0 14
#note did not recognize thsi at all
>sokol: EEINNPX 4J EXINE +41 63
#note or J5 (M)ENINX, which I never saw. #questionable
>smylie: AADEERU 3M EAU +12 26
#note I like making a new lane up here and keeping the E hook on TARTARE available so he can't block the ART lanes easily and close my bingo chances
>sokol: LNOOPRT 8B PORTOL.N +61 124
#note I was quite happy setting up the new O-hook! Wondered if Jackson knew/saw it.
>smylie: ADEERSS 10F RESEDAS +71 97
>sokol: BBGILNU D8 .UBBLING +80 204
#note wow, my fallback play if this was somehow not valid... is not valiid! BULBING* BULBED!
My confidence in the words in this position, from most confident to least confidence, was
1) BULBING*
2) RUBBLING
3) BLURBING
4) BURBLING

>smylie: ?AAEGHW 11I HAW +36 133
#note bingoes a lot more than WAAH
>sokol: EEGINOT C12 EGO +18 222
#note looks nice to close things down
Josh: If I think there's more than 25% chance he'll challenge PORTOLANO, now is a really good time to play the metagame and go with J7 GO. This may have been a missed opportunity.
>smylie: ?AADEGP 12J PAGED +30 163
#note fuck I saw PASSAGED but thought it was phony!

>sokol: EIKLNUU N10 KU.U +19 302
#note hmm, I never considered N6 UNLIKE(D). His rack is pretty random but possibly important to try and exploit with that play. He might just not have anything big with that triple. More importantly, I should be digging for the blank now. #questionable
>smylie: CDDEIRT 15K DICED +33 323
#note CREDIT looks better. interestingly I don't really change his average score, but I average 2 points more, and even bingo way less (7 vs 13%). I don't really understand why the D is so much better for scoring, it can't just be the 15k spot right?
>sokol: EILNNRV O7 VENIN +32 334
#note oh shit C3 ENVIR(O)N is an option here. Dig for the blank again, perhaps give myself better tempo, but it doesn't seem like it's the right play. Hm.. This whole game was hm. O7 LEVIN is better at least. #findingsmall
>smylie: EFIILRT 6A FLIRTIE. +70 393
>sokol: ?FLOOST 8B ........OS +12 346
#note lasst ditch effort to steal this game, hoping he decides spread is more important here than certainty of winning, and challenges a word he is almost positive is invalid. Almost worked!
>smylie: MOOWYZ 7J MOZO +22 415
#note W(U)Z is 40
