>Patrick_Beatrez: IKNOSST H4 KINOS +28 28
#note I didn't know STINKO which would've gotten rid of the O which isn't a great tile, grabbing two more points.
>Paul_Avrin: AWY G7 WAY +28 28
>Patrick_Beatrez: AAIJOST F9 AJI +31 59
>Paul_Avrin: IMO E11 MOI +18 46
>Patrick_Beatrez: ABBOSTU D12 BOB +24 83
#note I wasn't sure of BABU in the same spot which is much better. D11 ABBOT is possible for 37 but it floats the T after he's played very short the last couple turns, but 9 more points than BABU is a lot.
>Paul_Avrin: EILRY E5 RILEY +25 71
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEMQSTU D1 QUATE +50 133
#note I could play at 8A for 5 less and keep the E, which would make me more likely to hit the BOBS hook, but I think taking the 5 points is worth it. Sim says QUAT(E) is slightly better than QUATE, saying that I bingo 34% next turn instead of 26% after QUATE.
>Paul_Avrin: DEHV 5G H.VED +24 95
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?ELMOPS J5 .MPLOyES +67 200
#note I draw the blank and miss a ton of bingos hooking BOBO. COMPELS is the obvious one, with plenty of other options also available. The only bingo I could find was EMPLOYES so I played it for 67, but I had not thought about just using the bottom row with MOPS for 36 holding EL? and trying to bingo next turn. If I'm not going to bingo for 92 on the bottom row, MOPS definitely looks best.
>Paul_Avrin: EGT - +0 95
>Patrick_Beatrez: CCIORST 8A TRIC. +30 230
#note He challenges, unfortunately no A or E to bingo through, and I didn't know the 8 with a P. 8J (L)ICTOR would've been a decent amount better than TRIC(E).
>Paul_Avrin: EGT I11 TEG +10 105
>Patrick_Beatrez: ACFGLOS H12 FAGS +49 279
#note Too many points to really do anything else.
>Paul_Avrin: EEGINTW A8 .WEETING +89 194
#note WEETING plays with 4 overlaps at K9 for 91.
>Patrick_Beatrez: ACLNNOS 3B CL.N +12 291
#note 8J (L)OCALS
>Paul_Avrin: EX B8 .EX +56 250
>Patrick_Beatrez: AENOPST B1 PA.T +16 307
#note And now he's right back in the game and I panic, missing 7B PO for 21 keeping AENST. Another option if I don't like the bingo possibility from the S or potentially with an opening he may make is to play K9 PANTO for 32 to score as well as I can. PACT is a weak play and I think I should've played PANTO. I'm extremely likely to bingo after playing off PO but I shouldn't risk a bad draw forcing me to score barely anything next turn, especially if he can pick up a U and score well with the Q.
>Paul_Avrin: AHIO 15D OHIA. +18 268
>Patrick_Beatrez: DELNORS A1 OD +24 331
>Paul_Avrin: DEFOT 8J .OFTED +42 310
>Patrick_Beatrez: DELNNRS N7 L.NDER +11 342
#note REL(E)ND is a couple more points than this. I could fish off a couple consonants and try to hit a bingo, but the only open vowel is the E which I already have so I don't like that option. I wanted to try to draw some vowels, specifically a U to score from the Q. I already have an S which will help me score as we move to the endgame and the only scoring tiles left are the V and Z, so my position is feeling pretty good as long as he doesn't hit the Q and then draw the Z or blank.
>Paul_Avrin: ?IRU 1D .UIRt +39 349
>Patrick_Beatrez: EINNOSZ 13K ZINS +34 376
#note Two in the bag, I should probably avoid playing off the S now and just play C7 Z(I)N for 30, which puts me up by 23 and holds the S with a terrible pool. I can even threaten bingos at that point while he has garbage, and with only playing two tiles I can still withstand the bad draws. With ZINS I think I still win with any draw.
>Paul_Avrin: AAARRUV 4K AURAR +15 364
#note Best.
>Patrick_Beatrez: EENOU B12 ONE +14 390
#note 4F EE(K) blocking his best out, or O1 ENU(R)E are tied for my best sequence.
>Paul_Avrin: AV I3 VA. +19 383
>Paul_Avrin: (EU) +4 387
