#note JUKE E3 wins the sim, but I'm not so sure. JUREL seems much better for board control, plus it keeps scoring tiles for Row 5. (-6.5?)

#note The M7 placement is slightly better because it doesn't allow nightmare Z plays like ZINEB N10. (-2)
>Mike_Baron: IINORST 9F IRONIST +67 198
>Carl: CENOQYY B6 Q. +31 327
#note N10 YON wins the sim. My recollection is that I considered it, but now there are two big Z spots (F10) and so it wasn't as important to block. (-4.5)

#note Quackle prefers ROUE 5I by a slim margin, but I think the best play is NOYAU 11A, which isn't too far back. (-1)

#note I thought I was being clever here, taking out all the bingos. But Quackle says I am only wasting time, forestalling the inevitable. With full knowledge of Mike's rack, Quackle strongly prefers ENUF. the play I originally would have made. But the clear sim-winner is FEU M11, a play so deep that I don't quite understand it. I suppose the obvious benefit is that weakens Mike's bingos, but I wouldn't think my play would be (-32) relative to that.
>Mike_Baron: ?GIOPRS A12 P.G +9 242
#note Maybe this is one of the reasons I'm supposed to let Mike bingo. Better than what's coming if I block.
>Carl: AEHMMOT E11 TH.O +14 422
#note Quackle prefers MAHOE 14I or 12I HOMA. (-7)
>Mike_Baron: ?EINORS 11E .RItONES +64 306
>Carl: AAEELMM 15E LEMMA +35 457
#note There's a sequence here that's 5 points better, but I'll leave it to you to find it. (-5)
