>skaplan31: EEIKLSX 8D KEXES +42 42
#note Rd 2 of Philly virtual 1-24-2021. SEXLIKE* is not a word fyi. I know some of you all wish it was.
Q does understandably like 8G KEX a little better, but KEX will get paralleled too often by someone like Jay. This allows the board to stay open for reasonably longer, but EXILES is probably even better than this. #visionlarge
>jlevedit: AEGIITZ F6 ZA. +39 39
#note I'm surprised he didn't do 9C ZITI, that fits his game better than this.
>skaplan31: DEFILOS 9G FID +24 66
#note Here I prevent H1 bingoes but set up my S in 2 spots and my O in 1. I can understand Q liking FIDO a little better, but I don't need easy underlaps from him.
>jlevedit: DEGIITT 10E GITTED +26 65
#note Nice play by him and easily best.
>skaplan31: EJLMOOS 11B MOJO +32 98
#note Yep
>jlevedit: AILRTUY D11 .AY +26 91
#note Interesting. JURY in this spot is clearly better. I would not have been able to play my bingo if he did JURY instead of this.
>skaplan31: AELSSTU 14D SALUTES +75 173
#note That's why JAY was a mistake. Forgetting that it's his own name.
>jlevedit: BILRTUW H12 BU.T +27 118
#note I think 13I BUILT is better for him here. ILRW doesn't do very much on this board. If he wanted to be more aggressive, he could do B9 TUMBRIL to have some sort of nice scoring spot on his next turn, the W can serve as a good tile for hitting 13I plays as well as WEFT options on Row 7 as a backup if he draws consonants. He would have 7E RAW as a nice backup option for example.
>skaplan31: DEENQRT -Q +0 173
#note Definitely made the right call here over B9 REMEND or B9 DEMENT.
>jlevedit: EIILNRW 6D WI. +15 133
>skaplan31: ADEENRT 12H .ANTERED +76 249
#note That helped me out nicely.
>jlevedit: AEILNRS O7 ISLAN.ER +77 210
#note I can understand him taking some time here, it is a nice rack and he admitted his fear that he might have missed a 3x3. None exist.
>skaplan31: ?DIIORU B11 .URID +16 265
#note J8 IODIN would have been sick and given me a 2nd lane to use for bingoing. #visionmeh
>jlevedit: EFGHOQV 5C FOH +33 243
#note His best move despite the clunky leave.
>skaplan31: ?HIIOOU A13 OHO +34 299
#note Definitely not doing 4B OOH with 2 Ps left. This or M9 HOURI are fine.
>jlevedit: EEEGQVV -EEGQVV +0 243
>skaplan31: ?AEIIOU -AIIOU +0 299
#note J8 IO(D)I(N)E(S) is an even sicker move than IODIN in the same spot in a previous position!
>jlevedit: AEIILOY 4D YA +34 277
>skaplan31: ?BEORTV N1 OVeRBET +78 377
#note Mhm
>jlevedit: EIIILOO 4I OILIE. +12 289
#note Jay also misses J8 IO(D)I(N)ES!
>skaplan31: ?CGMNNR 13G M.G +24 401
#note Right idea, MUN is better for the leave.
>jlevedit: EEIILOW 11J OI +12 301
>skaplan31: ?CGNNRV 1M V.G +21 422
>jlevedit: EEILNRW H1 WEIR +32 333
#note L3 W(I)RELINE does play for 62 and is the only bingo.
>skaplan31: ?CNNQRU J3 C.NQ +35 457
#note Did this over J2 QUIN to keep the E in WEIR open as another option for bingoes.
>jlevedit: AAEELNN M11 A.EA +8 341
#note Understandably he had to block ISLANDERS plays.
>skaplan31: ?CNPPRU 3M P.C +20 477
#note 3J (C)aPP(e)R is sick itself. I did try to rack up spread with ISLANDERS plays though. I did not know 2B PRePUC(E).
>jlevedit: AELNN N9 EN +10 351
>skaplan31: ?NPRU F2 PUR +17 494
#note While I did not see 1F UN(W)RaP, this gives me more spread anyway, so I would have passed up any out plays that I did see, for example, 2D PUNt(E)R. I do block LANE and LAWN so that I can have ISLANDERs to myself.
>jlevedit: ALN 5J .AN +12 363
#note His best move is 2L NA(V) for 15.
>skaplan31: ?N O7 ........s +27 521
#note However, I did not see 6D (WIZ)eN which would have been 4 more spread points.
>jlevedit: L 7F .L +11 374
#note Some good decisions were made this game. EXILES would have really changed the board instead of KEXES.
>jlevedit: (N) +2 376
