>Kevin_Burbridge: BEGIY H8 BEIGY +30 30
>Patrick_Beatrez: AINNSTY 10C INSAN.TY +71 71
>Kevin_Burbridge: PU 12H .UP +8 38
>Patrick_Beatrez: BCEEIMO E5 COMBE. +24 95
#note BECOME(S) is much better than COMBE(S). Static also has COMBI(S) as a slightly better leave with EE than EI.
>Kevin_Burbridge: EF F6 FE +30 68
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEEINOT 11H .AEN +21 116
#note Looks fine to take the points, the board is already getting funky.
>Kevin_Burbridge: Q C9 Q. +21 89
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEIMOTZ I7 ZA +25 141
#note ATOMIZE, ugh. I4 MAIZE is also probably better than ZA.
>Kevin_Burbridge: AEEHRST J2 HETERAS +86 175
>Kevin_Burbridge: AEEHRST -- -86 89
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEIMOTT J6 MAE +27 168
#note I saw that G1 REHEATS is his only bingo, but I didn't see a great way to block it. G7 MOA(N) is a great play to score well and block the bingo.
>Kevin_Burbridge: AEEHRST G1 REHEATS +77 166
>Patrick_Beatrez: CIIOTTV 2G .VICT +16 184
#note VIT(R)IC is such a good play. I only really saw C(R)IT or TO(R)IC through the R and thought that (E)VICT was a better idea. There's also T(R)ICOT, but VIT(R)IC is clearly best by an absolute mile.
>Kevin_Burbridge: EIKNOW 1A WONKIE. +57 223
>Patrick_Beatrez: ADGINOT K5 DOG +27 211
>Kevin_Burbridge: DOU D1 .UDO +18 241
>Patrick_Beatrez: AAINOTU 3K OUTA +10 221
#note (EVICT)ION for 26 is so ugly. L3 UNAI looks a bit better than OUTA. Everything is ugly.
>Kevin_Burbridge: EJRV I1 J.VER +19 260
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEIIINR A1 .INIER +10 231
#note C3 INIA scores more and keeps better.
>Kevin_Burbridge: INX 4L NIX +35 295
>Patrick_Beatrez: ADEILOU 2N LO +24 255
#note EIDOLA would've been a great find that would've kept me in the game better.
>Kevin_Burbridge: LR F9 L.R +5 300
>Patrick_Beatrez: AADEGIU C3 ADAGE +25 280
#note AGUED or ADIEU in the same spot.
>Kevin_Burbridge: L O1 L. +6 306
>Patrick_Beatrez: EHIOSTU O4 ETHOS +39 319
#note I considered B6 UH for 18, ETHOS for 39, and 12C ETUI for 12. After his ominous play of L(O) for 6 I can probably infer he has at least a blank, but the pool is so consonant heavy I decided to play the most tiles and score well and hope that he doesn't have enough vowels to bingo. ETHOS gives me a shot at winning without a counter bingo. However, it could be hard for him to start a bingo with an E, so if I can keep it tight with B6 UH and put some pressure on him that way, if I can draw a blank or power tile then I'm in a great spot. Champ has -HIOU as its favorite play, but that doesn't really make sense to me. I also wonder about 13J SOUTH, especially if I infer a blank and potentially also an S. I don't think my win% is 40% after UH like quackle says, but I think it gives me a similar chance as ETHOS.
>Kevin_Burbridge: ??AIRRS N7 pARRIeS +60 366
#note ARRIVES is 100%, he had about 25 seconds on his clock and panicked with two blanks. PARRIES is a big blunder and loses with a lot of 2-consonant draws when I also have something like WOLF for 52 followed by an out play.
>Patrick_Beatrez: DILPTUW O12 WILD +46 365
#note Best.
>Kevin_Burbridge: FO B7 OF +7 373
#note M11 or F3 play for 15.
>Kevin_Burbridge: (PTU) +10 383
