#note It feels strange to get away with a phony. The fact is, I had just studied all the -ICLY words and still couldn't remember if this was on there. That actually made me more likely to play it.

#note Look, just because I smell like a wounded gazelle doesn't mean that I never get away with phonies, just that I usually don't.

#note I think I'm being clever here setting up the X, but OXHIDE (which I didn't see) is clearly better. (-8)
>John_K: INQU D3 QUIN +31 152
>Carl: AEHIMSX 1L HI.E +42 146
#note HAVE is better here because there are more As than Is unseen. (-2.5)
>John_K: HSTU F3 TUSH +33 185
#note I picked up on a tell here; John agonized over this play, which suggested to me that he didn't have a second S. That was what led me to play SWAMP; it seemed safer.
>Carl: AMPSTWX 10J SWAMP +36 182
#note My read turned out to be correct, but...

>Carl: EGIOTTX K3 .OT +28 210
#note I couldn't decide between JOG and JOT. Neither can Quackle. It also considers both plays even to 11K OX, which seemed a bit too optimistic for my tastes.

#note FANION 14J sims much, much higher, probably due to the greater likelihood of hitting 9-letter bingos on Column H. (-7.5)

#note Missing ROO. (-7) Notice that even if I think I'm going to play out with ROVER, I'd score more points with ROO and then OVER. But I actually won't play out at all because he has AMEBA I1.
