>AS: CFIJLNU 8F FLIC +18 18
#note Definitely 8G FUJI 28 here. Saving the J here isn't great because it is unlikely that any hotspots will be available next move due to the blocky nature of FLIC.
>ARK: ?BGNNPT -BGNP +0 0
>AS: EJLNORU G6 JO.L +13 31
#note I5 JUN(C)O 16 is the best here because it's better to open up the board from two ways and JUNCO doesn't actually give away much scoring opportunities (though that doesn't matter in the initial stages). The problem with being blocky is that the match basically tilts in the favour of the one who gets a single high-scoring move, open boards allow you to bounce back from a deficit.
>ARK: ?EGHINV 9I HEaVING +79 79
>AS: ENNQRSU M7 QU.N +23 54
#note M7 QU(I)N 23 and 10B QUERNS 49 are both very strong. However, playing QUERNS seems better as it equalizes the score and two scoring opportunities are still available. QU(I)N basically depends on picking a playable bingo, and the main lane hooking QUIN can easily be blocked.
>ARK: EEMNOOW 11J WOMEN +34 113
>AS: AEIKNRS 12E SNAKIER +73 127
#note O2 SKEARIN(G) 92
>ARK: EEENOSU 6M EE +19 132
>AS: AABDIOR O7 BI.A +21 148
#note Not much value in blocking the EE- lane because it's already hard to bingo from there. It's better to score here and try to extend your lead. 13F ABID 32 and 13G BAO 25 are possibilties.
>ARK: EEINOSU H10 EU. +7 139
>AS: ADIORTY 10F OY. +23 171
#note Y(E)A is also pretty equal due to 6A's in the bag.
>ARK: EINOSST 13I ONSITES +78 217
>ARK: EINOSST -- -78 139
>AS: ADIRTTU I5 DUT.. +12 183
#note Maybe block 13A STONIES by playing 11D DA or something. SONTIES can still be played though so I guess DUTCH is fine.
>ARK: EINOSST I12 .S +3 142

#note 2B ZAPTI(AH) 46 is an obscure spot.
