>Lam_Tang: ACDEK 8D CAKED +30 30
>Chris_Cheng: AEILNQR H5 QIN.AR +16 16
#note H5 QAI(D) is probably better. Exch Q didn't cross my mind for that long but it does bingo so much, an incredible 75%.
>Lam_Tang: EFINNSU 11B FUNNIES +87 117
>Chris_Cheng: AEELPUX 10E EX +52 68
>Lam_Tang: MW 9G M.W +22 139
>Chris_Cheng: AELOPUV 5E OPA.UE +34 102
#note I don't remember considering 5H (Q)UALE or 5G E(Q)UAL, perhaps either of those are better just to avoid huge hooks
>Lam_Tang: FLSU K2 FLUS +50 189
#note Yea that hurts
>Chris_Cheng: AIJLV 4B JAIL +24 126

>Chris_Cheng: GIV G2 VIG. +9 135
>Lam_Tang: BO 6E BO +17 234
>Chris_Cheng: DEINPSU 4J P.DU +18 153
#note 4J P(U)DU is 6 less points than 12C PUD, but I made the former play to ensure the top right gets opened... since I am probably going to need two bingos or equivalently high scoring plays in order to come back from this 99 point deficit.

>Lam_Tang: TZ 8M Z.T +36 288
>Chris_Cheng: ABINRTY C10 B.RY +18 242
#note D8 (C)AR(N)Y is cool, and probably the best play
>Lam_Tang: EER 1L E.ER +24 312

>Lam_Tang: EHIOS 15J HO.IES +27 364
>Chris_Cheng: AAENORT 14G AERAT.ON +85 411
#note The bingo wins 71% of the time, per Champ player. I estimated it to be way lower, thinking at best 50%. I did briefly consider playing something else but didn't see any better path to victory other than hoping the blank was in the bag and/or Lam being stuck witih too many consonants to plan an out in two (and obviously not having an out bingo).
>Lam_Tang: ?ADILRT 15B TRAILeD +84 448
#note He ended up having, in this scenario, the equivalent of the nuts.
