>Josh: IINPTUX H7 PIX +24 24
>Jackson: AADEFOR G8 OAF +19 19
>Josh: CHINOTU F9 TOUCH +29 53
#note OUCH and TI are kinda cool for defense, but TOUCH is definitely worth it.
>Jackson: AADEQRW 14A ADWARE +37 56
#note I think its between ADWARE and WARHEAD. ADWARE is more aggressive, and it does feel worse to make two even bigger spots when the Q is really gonna hinder me, but it scores 3 more, and it seems that the spots after WARHEAD are actually almost as big, so its worth playing ADWARE since the averages make it a wash before the immediate score difference
>Josh: BEIINNY A8 BIENNI. +30 83
>Jackson: ABQRRSY D12 BR.Y +26 82
>Josh: DEFIORY 15F DEIFY +49 132
>Jackson: AENOQRS H14 Q. +11 93
>Josh: AEELORU B2 AUREOLE +72 204
>Jackson: ?AENORS C3 pERSONA +82 175
#note missed SErRANO, thats a point more and looks worth it
>Josh: DEENSTU D4 DEETS +38 242
#note A1 UNDE looks like the play here. Even though there isn't an immediate S hook on the board, EST is still worth the sacrifice. DEETS does seem better than fishier options, like DUE
>Jackson: AAINOOW B10 WOO +31 206
>Josh: AIMNNRU 12F .RANIUM +24 266
#note CUMARIN is a better version of this, and looks like its between MUN and CUMARIN. CUMARIN lowers my bingo % a bit, but I think MUN might let Josh be more defensive next turn, and it doesnt hurt keeping AINR for a guaranteed balanced rack
>Jackson: AAEGGIN 14J AGING +25 231
#note the bag is consonant heavy, so I preferred playing AGING to AGGIE, plus I was sure of the S hook and theres a chance he's not sure. this sims best, along with AGEING in the same spot, which has definite merit as well (the g there in the triple isnt a huge scoring threat). I'm fine with this play, but AGEING, AGGIE, and AGI(N)G are all fine too
>Josh: EHLNSST A8 .......L +30 296
#note case Ss. HEST right now isnt bad though, I could have the blank
>Jackson: ?AAEIIM 15M AIM +20 251
#note the way he played BIENNIAL made me think he was likely to have an S, so I didnt mind blocking the scoring S hook, hoping to hit a bingo myself next turn.
>Josh: EHNSSTT A1 NTH +25 321
>Jackson: ?AEILRT I6 RELATI.g +79 330
>Josh: EGJPSST M9 JETS +31 352
>Jackson: CDKOTVZ 11H Z.T +25 355
#note I think ZEK wins more than this. ZIT is pretty optimistic, cause to win I need vowels to begin with, but even if I draw vowels he usually has enough to make a long play for an out in two, which will beat me easily. As much as I felt he had the second S after JETS, it seems I have to just go for it with ZEK, cause at least the S can win for me
>Josh: EGILPSV J5 VEG +19 371
#note saves PIU and outs sometimes, this always wins
>Jackson: CDKOOUV N6 KUDO +28 383
>Josh: EILPS O5 LIPE +37 408
>Jackson: COV 10D CO.. +9 392
>Josh: S N6 ....S +16 424
