#note Three bingos play and all of them suck! NORTENO 14B scores 73 but puts the O at H14, all but guaranteeing that Orry will have a big play next turn. The 10H placement for NORTENO 62 gives back the least but also scores the least, and offers floaters for Orry. NONVOTER scores a few more points, gives slightly fewer floaters, but opens the 3x3. There's also ONTO C9, if you'd prefer to wait until next turn. Quackle plays NORTENO 14B, but all four plays sim within a few points. (-2) #strategysmall
>Orry: IIIIIII -IIIIIII +0 39
>Carl: AEEPSVY 10H PEAVEYS +75 183
#note I have no idea why I didn't play this at I2. That makes no sense positionally, plus I'm sacrificing 5 points. In fact, so clearly inferior was this play that I wonder if the position was different. Something's wrong in the tracking. (-5) #strategylarge
>Orry: CGK L9 G.CK +22 61
>Carl: ABHIIRS 1A BAIR.ISH +176 359
#note I liked this better than BRAINISH because I could parallel it, closing the lanes. But I suppose at this point it doesn't really matter.
>Orry: DEIMOTV 14A VOMITED +87 148
>Carl: AGOOTTW 13B WO +23 382
#note Maybe I'm being too skittish, but I think I have to take out the triple, and WOT B15 invites ISOGRIVS or something like that. Yes, I'll probably outrun a 3x3 but why risk it with half the game to go? Small risks eventually add up to certain death. (-10?)

>Orry: PT C9 P.T +21 259
>Carl: IIILRTZ H1 .ILI +8 474
#note I didn't want to play RITZ with the F unseen, and HILI seemed to clear up the rack nicely while blocking most of the bingo lanes. Quackle just plays RITZ now. (-10) #strategymedium
>Orry: IQ G4 QI +22 281
>Carl: FIORTUZ 6C RI.Z +33 507
#note Much better than FRITZ.
>Orry: AAEELLM 3H .AMELLAE +72 353
>Carl: FGORTUY O1 TR.YF +45 552
#note The tile tracking is incorrect. Orry probably played RUE F9 instead of DUE and underscored by two; there weren't 5 Ds in the game. Because Orry can play out next turn, TREYF is correct. This does not explain why I didn't play PEAVEYS I2 however. Puzzling.
