#note Now you can watch me worry about the board getting closed down with Steve having a lead, but ultimately not submit that much to this worry.

#note Also considered TURFED. See my first note. DRS seemed pretty strong with this pool, but it also looked like a COUGHS bingo from Steve could make the game tricky for me here.

#note Considered some other stuff, like AWARD and plays through IF. DROPT is something I didn't see. I felt like the value of DIRT fluctuated a lot depending on whether he played on the right. Also, if he plays a nonbingo on the right, I may be happy anyway.

>whatnoloan: DIKNRTX 5K KIND +30 191
#note Sets up X stuff. Also KINDA, which I didn't see til later. DRINK seems decent, more closed. Not sure I really want KEX here.

>whatnoloan: IMRRSTX 3M MIX +34 225
#note Also considered TRIMS. Maybe REX is good too, don't think I considered that. Quackle WAY prefers TRIMS, actually thinks RRST does worse than RX on the next turn and MIX gives back more. I guess the idea is that the X is quite likely to do well on the next turn, whereas RRST mostly does poorly, but sometimes quite well. RRST may have a bit more recursion value. The column O and row 2 scoring spots are also nice for him. MIX kind of felt nicer for the board, but maybe it isn't really, or that is minor. Probably a large misevaluation :/

#note Also considered RAH 2L. Dismissed RAX pretty quickly.

#note Looked to see if there was a disaster bingo that could win for him after this (something like MICOZoA* would do the trick by two points), didn't see anything, so went with this. No disaster bingos were in fact possible for him.
