#note Exch LMQW is best, 18pts is too much to give away in first sight.

ENR gives 11.2 valuation and MEWL gives 8.9, need to think objectively here.

#note I am playing terribly up to this point in R2. I haven't gone through the whole process of looking for options and comparing them. I should really force myself into the right mindset. I was tunnel vision on the left side of the board, POW(N) is helpful here.

2B TEIND(20) vs I9 NOTT(17) vs 1A TORN(15)

Objective: Create bingo chances. meanwhile obstructing high scoring spots.

A1 TWS is a better scoring spot than A8. That makes TORN more appealing.
S is strong in this board, but way more helpful if you have a high scoring tile using QINDARS.
I will play TORN here. Engine gives similar win rate for these three

>Brian_Po: CGNNTUV 2H .NCUT +13 135
#note Winning chances are now minimal, I wanted to open up the right side.

B8 GUV(19) and C12 GUV(17) are slightly better by engine.

#note I5 VOM(20) is best.
Previous inaccuracies leave me to here but it's part of the game to find chances when you are way behind.
