>Norases_Vesdapunt: IQ 12H QI +25 49
>Jackson: EELNSTU N9 UNSTEEL +77 141
#note N8 is okay as well shorter term, but I figured the S hook might be a bit annoying to block (after N9, plays through the L will also take out VIRGINS whereas plays at O13 after N8 will not)
>Norases_Vesdapunt: ?CDEEOT 9B COvETED +67 116
>Jackson: BEIOOOU 15K OBO.I +30 171
#note considered OBOLE as well to save the I for better H12 options, QUINQUITQUID etc, but OBOLI still sims a point better for flexibility

>Jackson: AEFIIMO 10E .IME +22 275
#note I could do K5 FIE here, which at least takes out the K column lane immediately, but the problem is that he can play at L1 and open a few lanes, whereas after DIME I can start outrunning earlier and hopefully take care of the B and C column next turn. A nice option I didn't consider is FIA(T), which takes out most of the C column while keeping a decently flexible rack. I like it better than DIME by a bit.
>Norases_Vesdapunt: ABDKOUY 12A BUOY.D +33 225
>Jackson: AAEFHIO 13A AHI +25 300
#note This should be OBEAH here, which is a pretty large mistake. OBEAH of course scores 5 more now and keeps a less risky leave, and the H I am throwing out isn't a very good lane, I barely raise his bingo %. More importantly, after AHI he will often play down from BA to make a lane on the 15 row, and that will be much harder to block since UH prevents underlaps. however after OBEAH, blocks at B14 will be much more lucrative.
>Norases_Vesdapunt: KW A12 ..WK +39 264
>Jackson: AACEFNO 7H CA.O +19 319
#note I didn't spend enough time on this turn. The pool is getting better and better and so blocking bingoes is pretty important, especially without great ways to outrun. CAPO does sim best, cause I save a pretty good leave for outrunning and the lanes I am leaving usually score a lot less than the K column. however, FEA(T) might be best here to block even more bingoes, though it does give Saint better options down the C column to open. I think CAPO is a fine play, but it would have been nice to parse through the situation more over the board
