#note totally missed APEEK 10J. that looks better, though if I am sure this doesnt take an S it might be worth playing to bait
>Richard_Kirsch: ?AAFIRW - +0 88
>Jackson: AGNOPSX 8A GASP +41 181
#note I actually thought it did take an S, which it doesnt, but after a challenge theres no way he challenges the S hook so I play this no matter what

#note I feel like I saw OUTWIND, and I have no idea why I didnt play it. I think I forgot about it at some point, this play is far worse. I considered UNWIT as well, and shoulda played that, DI is just less risky a leave, even if WUD mostly blocks the higher scoring lane

#note this wins a sim but is totally uninspiring. it accomplishes nothing besides not being bad

#note missed the beautiful CLAR(Y) here, such a bad miss. LYRIC even is better, again accomplishing something rather than nothing. I considered larger exchanges as well to go for the blank, and ex all 7 actually does sim best of all the exchanges - I was worried about maybe drawing drek occasionally, and ACINR protects against that, but the pool is quite balanced so I neednt worry too much. ex 7 bingoes by far the most, just over 50%.

#note tough position here, because the goals of not drawing the Q and drawing the blank are competing. I think overall it's more important to draw the blank, assuming my endgame timing is okay. For that reason something like CA(R)NAL is decent, cause often if he doesn't have the blank he can't do an out in two with one in the bag, and I can play an endgame to win. The other play I considered at the time was LAIN, which is champ's pref, and I think it makes sense just to score a bit extra and block the 8K spot - I was a bit worried about the F overlaps, but the extra few points can help, and ACR is flexible enough. Leaving 2 in the bag is pretty good here to try and force him to empty the bag and let me play an out in two.

>Jackson: ADLNRTU 8L .UNT +12 323
#note nothing wins straight up. This felt like my best shot at stealing an endgame, cause he can miss LYARD and maybe play for small keeping an out for himself

#note not quite enough. messed up plenty of turns this game, coulda easily been a dub
