#note Whoops, IDE(AT)ED is a much better version of this.

>Morris_Greenberg: ?EIMRSY B9 SEMIdRY +82 189
#note I really considered MY here too, it just scores so much on this board and EIRS? is great, but ultimately thought that bingoing immediately was right given Andy isn't close to bingoing. Quackle puts all of MIS(L)aYER, SEMIdRY, and MY within 0.5% of each other. I didn't like MISLAYER because of the lanes and volatility it creates, but Quackle says Andy averages 5 more points after SEMIDRY (I didn't see the A and E hooks to SCOT in the moment, Andy did for the A at least as he pointed it out after the game) than MISLAYER.
>Andy_Hoang: AEOT A12 TOEA +36 160
>Morris_Greenberg: EEFGKMU F10 FEM +32 221
#note I am blind to the E(SCOT) hooks here. This or FEU seem best among plays that don't use that, but obviously KEEF, KEF, or FUME in the A column is much better if I see it.
>Andy_Hoang: AEFHL 4H FEL.AH +32 192
#note Andy might have missed the hook on this turn too?
>Morris_Greenberg: ABEGKRU 3L KAGU +34 255
#note BURKA or BURKE A5 if I see the hook. This or BURK 3L seem best of non-A-column plays.
>Andy_Hoang: EGINOTU 3C TONGUE +21 213
>Morris_Greenberg: BEGPRVV O1 ER.V +33 288
#note I prefered this over GRUB because (1) there were so many I's and N's unseen so sticking the G at O1 seems unideal, and (2) 2 V's is a risky game. Quackly prefers GRUB, likely due to the ESCOT hook that I continue to miss.
>Andy_Hoang: ER 8K ...ER +24 237
>Morris_Greenberg: ABGOPTV 2M BA. +24 312
#note Rinse and repeat and bunch of A column plays are better. A clever idea I missed here also is BOP 2B, to set up the final A of the game that is on my rack.
>Andy_Hoang: NOW 4B NOW +24 261
>Morris_Greenberg: GOPSTVY A1 VOGS +35 347
#note Can't miss E(SCOT) or A(SCOT) if I don't have the tiles.
>Andy_Hoang: ?DNNNNQ -NNNNQ +0 261
#note I am guessing this was Andy's rack here, lucky break.
>Morris_Greenberg: DEHOPTY O7 D.Y +7 354
#note If I see ESCOT, HYPED or DOPEY are amazing. I assume Andy exchanged the Q, so I want to keep the T for Q(A)T, and OPH so I can open a QOPH spot if I don't draw I's. I also liked blocking this lane because the pool still has huge bingos like REQUIRER available which score enough to outrun me (that was the one I saw, and the only one available in factor with the R), while I didn't see any such plays with the V (I missed VERNIXES in this search). If I see VERNIXES, OY 2A or YOW D2 would likely have been my play since most of the time Andy exchanged the Q.
>Andy_Hoang: N D2 N.. +6 267
>Morris_Greenberg: EHOPQTX 6J Q.T +32 386
#note Yes, I did draw QX. This will outrun any bingo.
>Andy_Hoang: ?EEINRR 1C RERIsEN +79 346
>Morris_Greenberg: EHIIOPX C3 ..PHI +11 397
#note I laid HE(L)IO down during this turn with the intention of playing PIX after, but took it off (luckily, because I realized a bit later that it gave back INN). Andy pointed out after that if I switched the move order of that sequence that would be a better out in 2. Quackle also once again manages to point out that playing PEH, HOPE, or HEP making ASCOT are even better endgames than out in 2s.
>Andy_Hoang: NN 1N N. +6 352
>Morris_Greenberg: EIOX 12F .OXIE +22 419
#note Whoa, OX or EX 11H nets 2 more, whoops.
>Morris_Greenberg: (N) +2 421
