#note Also considered ETUI, DETINUE, and some other stuff. UNITIEs is a decent looking option.

#note I'm glad I took the time to see this here.

>whatnoloan: BENOSSZ C11 SEZ +39 187
#note Rough to block the lane, I thought, but I felt kind of forced. BONZE B5 is an interesting option, but I think she just blocks that. If she doesn't tend to for some reason, then it looks decent. B1 AS is second on static choices, which is cool. It hits 10/44 tiles in this pool for sevens. I think I still would go with SEZ.
>kerwood: BEGILRR 4J .RGE +10 292
>whatnoloan: ABINOQS 7C Q. +21 208
#note I didn't think of NIQAB B5, racing for the A. Of course, she can just block with a dink if she doesn't have the A, but then she neglects the right side of the board and doesn't score very well. I also didn't see what QI could hit on column A -- NONBASIc. I'm a bit reluctant to play NIQAB still, but maybe it's the right choice. QI hits DEGIRT? if she doesn't block, and could hit other stuff depending on her play. Given URGE, it's not clear how much she will try to tighten next turn, so this still seems OK.
>kerwood: BDILPRW M2 BR.W +18 310
>whatnoloan: ABGINOS E4 BA +19 227
#note I didn't consider BOB 2M here...maybe? Sim seems to like this play a lot more, maybe because the O works a lot better than the A with columns I and N.
>kerwood: DFILOPY N4 DOPY +28 338
>whatnoloan: AGINOOS O5 GOONS +34 261
#note I thought I needed another line here, hence not GOON. Could also do GOAS.
>kerwood: ?FFIILU G8 .IF +19 357
>whatnoloan: AEIINOT K1 OI +6 267
#note I didn't want to give her a scoring spot with OBI or BIO or OI. It's possible this is not the correct fish, given the column A lane. Like DIE 6J seems to hit a lot more starting with N than OI does. It also opens another lane! Maybe that's the play.
>kerwood: ?AFILUV A1 .AIF +11 368
>whatnoloan: AEINTTW E1 .W +14 281
#note Thought about doing something like TIZ or WIZ here, but spread matters for this tournament. Maybe she can make an error and I can still win here? Or maybe I can win without her making an error?
>kerwood: ?ALMSUV 9M VA. +10 378
>whatnoloan: AEINTTT M9 .ITTA +16 297
#note Played very quickly, since I only had 39 seconds left.
>kerwood: ?EELMSU 14H rELUMES +79 457
>whatnoloan: ENOOTVX 15G VEX +51 348
#note 20 seconds for this play. Going over here was quite possibly worth it, as I seem to have missed out on 36 spread with this choice!
