#note looks right, sims 2 ahead of NANA and 6 ahead of AN. The leaves are good enough to the point where the A barely helps ENR?, I already bingo 80% with ENR? and I can often draw heavier tiles to hit bigger bingoes than with the A. NANA is also fine, I considered it but the N does help my bingo % a fair amount. I liked that NANA could give me value for the J hook that might get missed, but ANA seemed too solid to pass up

#note sims best over CINQ - I bingo 83% of the time, this rack is sweet with all the floaters available.

#note this is where I started to get slow and sluggish of the mind - this play does look best just for sheer score, but I was slowing down

#note really hard turn. The problem that arose in this game is that i was not 100% sure of MORDENTS, and though clearly gregg didn't like it himself cause of BARLEYS placement, I was still a bit undecided on the hook, and so I wasnt going full throttle on that element on the game plan. I figured PAWN has an S more than average, and I liked taking out cheap o1 plays here. Plus, the M could help hit an O1 play like DOOM or ATOM over the next couple turns, so this is good value. MUREX might be the more standard line, which I considered, and it does give me a better path to dump the J next turn. I don't hate this play but it's a gross position.

#note I was not aware of the vowel situation here, which is a shame cause I usually check that constantly. I wanted to reach for an S because this board is becoming more and more S dependent, but the plethora of vowels in the pool makes keeping just N a bit too extreme, NT is probably the play. Q likes MANAT in a sim, but I am not convinced. not the worst play but I prefer the exchanging route

#note low on time and made a bad play - OKE, which I saw, sims 3 ahead but is way better in reality, given MORDENTS may not be played by Gregg. I have the opportunity to get some decent bingo % now but squandered it, I remember liking the N out at O8 just to not have to worry too much about the lane, but with these marginal S hook lanes available, defense is not the top priotity.

#note nice find

#note considered VIG to go for NOTIFIED, but figured my position is not yet desperate enough for that. FOGIE sims best

#note resting hurt bad. the plan here is to hit QI and then a bingo, or threaten qi and he blocks and I bingo elsewhere, who knows.
