>Jackson: BEIMOST H4 BIOME +24 24
#note MOB, BO, BIOME are all worth playing here. I probably do MOB against most opponents, but elected for BIOME here for the higher score and more open board.

#note Didn't see TSK, which is kinda cool, but goes against my open board plan, and also kinda ruins the value of ADNT on this board, which really needs the G/I column lanes or the 8 row. K(I)T was tempting, but I really don't want to make such a risky play here.

#note Really should have considered RIN here too, not just HIN and PIN. I think HIN is fine, since HIPRS doesn't have a great home for scoring plays on this board, but RIN is a totally reasonable play to make.

>Jackson: ?CEEEOR 13K CERE +30 273
#note With few bingo options, CEO? isn't so much better than EO?, so CERE looks worth it.
>Robert_Fenske: IQ I3 QI +25 293
>Jackson: ?DEOOUW O13 DOW +29 302
#note OW/OGAM and WOO are decent plays as well. WOO can encourage him to open the board for me to hit a bingo, and OW keeps the CERED hook for next turn and a more balanced rack. The D is also quite a useful tile to hit hard with H and M draws at N10. It's hard to trust a sim here because Robert won't blast the board open like crazy, so It's hard to choose between these three. DOW is the most conservative play, which is usually fine when I feel confident outmaneuvering on a closed board with blank in hand.

>Jackson: ?AELLOU D11 .LU +12 314
#note Not the worse idea to be aggressive here with AFOUL - in a raw sim he bingoes around 8-9%, so even with a slightly stronger range it's not insane, cause there aren't many useful tiles that hook the A for him (no Ds, the S doesn't hook), whereas EL? works well to hit that lane. However, again I wanted to elect for the closed option that doesn't risk any GG scenarios. FOUL is also annoying to create the 15a spot, which would score well for him and leave 1 in the bag. AFOUL may be optimal, but I think this choice is good in this situation.

#note actual rack
>Jackson: ?AAELOV B7 cAVEOLA +66 380
#note definitely doing OVA E7 if I wasn't able to play such a defensive bingo.
