>Jackson: AEGRTTZ H7 ZAG +26 26
>Noah: ADORSUW 7F WU. +16 16
#note Sim prefers AW I7 by a tad.
>Jackson: EJLRTTV 8G T.J +12 38
#note actually did not consider JUT. The advantage of TAJ seems to be that it invited 6 row parallels which I can respond to well with a V, but JUT sets up stuff like VEG which can be really useful.
>Noah: ADINORS 10B DONAIRS +78 94
>Jackson: BEELRTV 6B BREVE +25 63
#note Interesting decisions here, and I wasn't sure which one was going to keep the most things open for the most time. I didn't like 6B BREVET, despite it being standard, cause it allows him to play a lot more defense. BREVE opened the top right, which I liked since it seemed like the part of the board that would be least easily accessed naturally. BRAVE and VOLTE and VOTER seemed pretty standard, and I still have no issue with them. thoughts?

>Jackson: GILLNTT 12D GILT +24 87
#note wasn't sure of LOFTING, but I think this is fine
>Noah: BIORRRU D1 BURRI.R +24 153
>Jackson: GKLLNTT -GKLLT +0 87
#note Maybe LT to work with the B better and there are a few extra Ns in the pool... looks good, I bingo very slightly more it seems
>Noah: ACEEMOX C1 AXE +37 190
#note I did see BECAME / BECOME, and also COMBE setting up EAUX, but thought it would just be better to limit bingo lines.
>Jackson: ANNNPTY 5F NANNY +14 101
#note pretty gross, but I think I gotta do INLAY F10 here to put on pressure. that triple vowel draw actually yields a fair amount of bingoes
>Noah: CEEKMOV H1 COVE. +33 223
>Jackson: AEILOPT I8 .O +14 115
#note 6J OI may be the call here. I liked that with the O fish, I get some 13 row and J column bingoes which aren't likely blocked, but I guess I still get OIL and PL- words at least if he blocks the O and C after OI, so that's probably fine.
>Noah: AEKMMOT 2G M.OK +20 243
>Jackson: AEILNPT 3H .EINAL +29 144
>Noah: ADEMOTY 4L YOM +28 271
#note Quite a bad play, as YOMP was not in my mind. There were likely points in time when I would have seen the hook and chosen something safer, but at least in this game, my brain was in the "YOM takes no hooks" mode valid pre-2014. I was happy to pick this over ATOMY, for "safety". In reality, ATOMY seems better. Other choices, like OY 4K, might be better still. There are other interesting options I don't feel sure I can rule out, like ATEMOYA and L1 MEATY.
>Jackson: ?AGLPTT 13B TAG +14 158
#note he played YOM quickly and with the confidence one would have believing it takes no hooks. So I gotta keep the P here and hope he keeps forgetting the new YOMP hook, cause that's a sweet ticket back into the game
>Noah: ADEEFQT F9 Q. +11 282
#note Still not seeing the YOMP hook, I play this over QAT because it seems hard for Jackson to make a really strong play on this board. YOMP should raise the stock of QAT quite a bit, though. I'm still reluctant to play QAT, but this might be an error.
>Jackson: ?DEELPT O4 PLEaTED +100 258
#note PETTLED, and wasn't sure of PESTLED. Maybe even TEMPLED to keep more space open for later
>Noah: ADEEFIT N7 DEFI +24 306
>Jackson: ?IIOSST 6J OI +11 269
#note nice block of mITOSIS. I missed 5L SOIL, which looks like the play here. Stays in better scoring range where my bingoes will win
>Noah: ADELOTU 13G OUTLEAD +73 379
>Jackson: ?EIPSST A11 PISTE +29 298
#note idk. INSTEPS for spread or smthn. hoping for a big mistake here
>Noah: CHIIRUW 12K WHIR +38 417
