>eddybear: AILNUXZ - +0 0
#note Rd 1 Philly virtual 7-11-2021. I'm 1st.
>skaplan31: ?AEEEEJ 8E AJEE +22 22
>eddybear: AILNUXZ 9C ZAX +38 38
#note He could also do E8 AUXIN keeping the Z, but it's not worth it here. This looks fine.
>skaplan31: ?EEFIRS 7G FRIEzES +76 98
#note While I like how easy this will allow me to outrun Ed, 10D REFIxES effectively blocks the bottom the best with the blank X in play. #visionsmall
>eddybear: ILNOSUU 6M ULU +7 45
#note As aggressive as this is, not sure I see anything wrong with this play in the short term, although it does keep creating parallel lines.
>skaplan31: DDIMNOO O4 MO.ND +33 131
#note I chose this over C9 ZOOID as I felt Ed was close to something after his interesting play. 6 more unseen Os could lead me to drawing ZOOID next turn. Win % goes up a little more after MOUND vs ZOOID or O5 DUOMI.
>eddybear: IINNOST E8 ..ION +24 69
#note Looks good to me, nice way to open up.
>skaplan31: ?BDEIIO 9H BIOcIDE +67 198
#note Only bingo. Happy to spot this one.
>eddybear: HILNPST 5G PLINTHS +77 146
#note Nice one from Ed too.
>skaplan31: AEEIRTT C9 .AIRE +28 226
#note No home for ITERATE unfortunately. There's already the 10N spot and the 10J spot for scoring. I don't mind scoring 28 instead of 10 for L4 EH for 12 for L3 ETH. ETH will be very annoying to block. The sim agrees here.
>eddybear: AAADNOR 4K AA +16 162
>skaplan31: ACEKRTT 3J TRACK +31 257
#note Wasn't crazy about B10 KA opening up S and O hooks that I don't have.
>eddybear: ABDHNOR B10 HOARD +53 215
#note Nice play!
>skaplan31: EEIORST N2 O.E +18 275
#note Not sure why EROTISE* can't be good. Now I'm in a very good spot to bingo next turn.
>eddybear: ABCEGNU A12 BEAN +41 256
#note Sim does prefer BEAU in this spot.
>skaplan31: EILRSTT 1H LITTERS +82 357
#note Luckbox.
>eddybear: CGNNSTU A6 TUNGS +24 280
>skaplan31: EIMPUWW 10M EW +29 386
#note Looks fine, nothing will keep that well here.
>eddybear: CDNOQVY 11J CONY +25 305
#note Looks fine here too.
>skaplan31: EIMPTUW B1 UPTIME +28 414
#note Partially blocking Rows 2 and 4 and getting the most I can once again.
>eddybear: DGGOQRV 1A Q.OD +48 353
#note From my perspective it might have been hard to Q-stick him anyway.
>skaplan31: EFLOVWY 4A V.EWY +36 450
#note 2 less than WIFELY in the same spot, but I would have been V-stuck after this because Ed can do 2E VIGA blocking D1 (D)OV(E).
>eddybear: AGGIRV E4 .AG +14 367
#note 2E VIGA should have been Ed's move here.
>skaplan31: FLO 10E .F +13 463
#note At this point, Ed is V-stuck. So let's slow play this.
>eddybear: GIRV 12A ...I.G +18 385
#note Best for him under the circumstances.
>skaplan31: LO G3 LO. +6 469
#note D3 OWL for 2 more. Good start.
>skaplan31: (RV) +10 479
