>Jackson: FIJMOOY H7 JOY +26 26
#note while MOJO felt better staticaly and is, FIY being a more synergistic leave than FIMO, the O and M work well with the J and Y of JOY, and JOY gives back less to michael, so it ends up being the better play by a couple points
>Michael_Fagen: AAEEIIL -AAEE +0 0
>Jackson: DEFIMOU I7 ODEUM +29 55
#note I considered FUJI as well, and it actually sims a few points ahead of ODEUM, just the defense plus DEMO always having a home between the 6 row and G column. FOU is a play I did not even consider and prob would have passed up like FUJI, but also sims best a point above FUJI. Early game defense can be big cause there are not a bunch of spots across the board to counterbalance. FUJI and FOU are very tight in a sim after a while, I would have more likely played FUJI
>Michael_Fagen: APW J7 WAP +33 33
>Jackson: AAEFIOR H11 AFORE +40 95
>Michael_Fagen: ?DELOTV 14H .EVOLTeD +88 121
>Jackson: AAAEEII -AAAEII +0 95
#note big error on this turn. The two reasonable plays here are exchanging and AIDE, but not exchanging down to E - you want to keep AE here, a big dearth of As in the pool, a big dearth of vowels as well, AE averages 2-3 more than E next turn, and bingoes a bit more. AIDE also lowers his average by about 5, which is something I didnt consider enough over the board, I wasn't worried enough about the D, but of course it protects against some huge plays and some 30-40 point plays, even if the D is not ideally situated. Definitely a 2-3 point error here, AIDE and AE are close

>Jackson: BEGNSTU 13G G.B +18 113
>Michael_Fagen: GISTW K3 TWIGS +32 225
>Jackson: ENSTTTU 5G NUTT.EST +58 171
>Michael_Fagen: AINQR N2 QIN.AR +34 259
>Jackson: DDFGHRR 15F DR.G +12 183
#note Didnt love closing the 15 row, especially cause that often comes at a cost for michael, but also the board is getting dead and DREG can actually hel pme open the bottom with a play at 14b, plus this board is better for scoring that bingoing, so tryig to edge back in like that then hitting a game winning bingo feels better - the 4 and 6 row are also gonna stay open a while, and I can draw stuff like FICHU. Etc. H for WH?N spot
>Michael_Fagen: ACIIN 4E ACINI +15 274
>Jackson: CDFHRUV 11F CH..FU +32 215
#note intentional phony, at this point my only hope. Knowing michael he is unlikely S hook it, unfortunately, but I could always use it myself
>Michael_Fagen: AENY O6 YEAN +28 302
>Jackson: ADEILRV O1 VIDE +44 259
>Michael_Fagen: ?AAINSU 6A ANUrIAS +63 365
>Jackson: AEILPRR M5 .PIRALER +74 333
#note another intentional phony. I saw RASPIER for 45 but didnt feel like enough.
>Michael_Fagen: EINORTX A6 .XON +33 398
#note ATONER is interesting here, but OXEN/EXON are standard
>Jackson: EHKLOOS 3I KE.O +25 358
#note bingoes very similar amount between KOTO and KETO, KETO probably slightly more, but I also felt Es were slightly less likely to be on Michael's rack, at least not 2 or them, so with the E draw coming KETO was preferred
>Michael_Fagen: EEIIORT B2 ROTI.I +21 419
>Jackson: BEHLLOS 2G BOSH +38 396
#note only regret is not going for BLOSH
>Michael_Fagen: EEM 10A EME +23 442
