#player2 Joey_M Joey M
>Mack: EEFLMNS H8 ELF +12 12
#note FEM seemed too easy to overlap, and H6 ELF seemed too aggressive given the existence of the DELF and PELF hooks in addition to SELF.
>Joey_M: DOOSUVV -OOUVV +0 0
#note I thought about VODOU, but I wasn't wild about opening the board that much with another V in hand. I should probably keep DOS instead.
>Mack: DELMNNS 8G L.ND +5 17
#note I like this a lot better than MEND or MEN in order to give back less hooks.
>Joey_M: ACDEIPS 7F CAP +20 20
>Mack: AELMNOS 7F ...O +12 29
#note I normally hate one-tile fishes but this is pretty clearly best here.
>Joey_M: DEFIOSU 6I FOU +14 34
>Mack: AEGLMNS 11B MANGLES +80 109
#note The PELFS hook seemed like it would be more annoying to deal with long-term than the FOU(L/R) hooks so I opted to use this spot, but I should probably just take the extra 3 for MANGELS/FOUL. He's really not likely to 3*3 through an M in that spot. #strategysmall
>Joey_M: ADEIRSU L6 RESIDUA +75 109
>Mack: ?ADEGVV 12A VEGA +35 144
>Joey_M: ?EMTTUU 8L .MUT +18 127
>Mack: ?DENSTV N8 .NVESTeD +88 232
>Joey_M: ?ENOQTU 15G uNQUOTE. +104 231
>Mack: ADEGHIR 13B HAGRIDE +98 330
>Joey_M: AEHIOOZ J8 .OZE +34 265
>Mack: ACINRXY K11 CYAN. +35 365
>Joey_M: AAEHIOW O11 WHA +29 294
>Mack: IILRRRX -IILRRR +0 365
#note I should probably save an R for DOZER/RYA. Missed the spot. #visionsmall
>Joey_M: AEIIOOT -IIOO +0 294
>Mack: BEEITWX O6 BI.E +8 373
#note Was getting very tired of the T staying open. This is a big equity hit over BETWIXT but I didn't see a good reason to give the E and the T back - it's hard to imagine losing after BITE on this board.
>Joey_M: AEIIPRT F5 PI. +9 303
>Mack: EIOTWXY 4D WYE +26 399
#note Was nervous about big bingos making LOX and EPIC after E5 OX and figured WYE could outrun any airballs with SEPIC. I think the idea is fine with WYE, but if I'm gonna do that I should play YOWIE. #findingsmall
>Joey_M: AER 5E A.ER +22 325
>Mack: AIIIOTX N3 IXIA +19 418
>Joey_M: IKOORRT M2 ROOK +35 360
#note Somehow I have a pulse, but I need really good stuff out of the bag.
>Mack: BIJLOOT K2 BIJO. +28 446
>Joey_M: EINRRST 3D ERST +25 385
#note The rarely used NITERS is best here.
>Mack: ILOTT 1M TIT +18 464
#note MM: This is not a good play for two reasons. 1) I should block 2B RIN/NEW with TOLT, which is 10 better. 2) TROOK* is not a word. #endgamemedium
JM: No such thing as TROOK*. I must have been thinking of STROOK. Spread meant very little to me at this juncture.
>Joey_M: INR 2B RIN +12 397
