>Elaine_Glowniak: AHLOR 8D HORAL +24 24
>Arie_Sinke: CIKNORT G8 .NTIROCK +66 66
#note Only bingo.
>Elaine_Glowniak: CIY 15E IC.Y +39 63
>Arie_Sinke: IMPRUVW D12 WIMP +47 113
#note Best despite the poor leave.
>Elaine_Glowniak: EEOPSSU 7H ESPOUSE +63 126
>Arie_Sinke: AARUVVY O5 VARY +40 153
#note This looks obvious but I actually overlooked a much better option here - VOUVRAY K6 for 32 clears up the rack beautifully at a cost of only 8 points.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ABR N6 B.AR +27 153
>Arie_Sinke: ?ANTUVZ J7 .UTZ +35 188
#note This looks right. VATU C11 scores 27 while getting rid of the U, and probably isn't worth the point sacrifice.
>Elaine_Glowniak: Q 13C Q. +22 175
>Arie_Sinke: ?ABINUV 14B VI. +27 215
#note Looks right.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ALW K10 AWL +23 198
>Arie_Sinke: ?AABENU 7C BUNA +18 233
#note I liked this play because it felt defensive with a lead, but BURA F6 has got to be better. Keeps a consonant in the leave at the expense of only 4 points, blocks almost as many (if not more) bingos, and doesn't set up a J spot.
>Elaine_Glowniak: AEEGHOO -3 +0 198
>Arie_Sinke: ?AEGJNT 6F JAG +57 290
#note Lucky
>Elaine_Glowniak: AEEGHOO L10 GOA +30 228
>Arie_Sinke: ?DEINOT 14G .aTENOID +78 368
#note Other bingos are available but this one is best by far.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ERX 15J REX +39 267
>Arie_Sinke: EEGINOT 4M EGO +17 385
#note I decided that at this point I was done worrying about defense and would just play for equity. It's probably not a terrible play but NOOGIE E7 for 19 looks better regardless.
>Elaine_Glowniak: DEER 3J REED +16 283
>Arie_Sinke: EEIILNT 13M LIE +13 398
#note meh
>Elaine_Glowniak: AFN I3 FAN +23 306
>Arie_Sinke: DEINSTU E10 DUES +27 425
#note Giving up on bingoing and using the S to score a few points is the right idea. DUES is the wrong execution. If I had known that CATENOID took an S I could have played DESI O12 for 32.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ?DEEIMN -2 +0 306
>Arie_Sinke: IMNSTTT L2 T.ST +18 443
#note Again, TEST is a better play with CATENOIDS. Otherwise this is okay.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ?DEEINO 10D E.I. +7 313
>Arie_Sinke: FILMNOT 13G .F +13 456
#note No idea what to do here, so I just played one tile to avoid emptying the bag. It turns out that OM in the same spot is better somehow - apparently the F works well in the endgame.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ?ADEINO 11K ..O +6 319
>Arie_Sinke: DILMNOT O10 TIN. +5 461
#note Low on time, just hoping DOLMA somehow doesn't get blocked so I can go out next turn. This isn't good. Playing DOLMA at G2 right now looks best.
>Elaine_Glowniak: ?AEEHIN 5A HErNIA +27 346
>Arie_Sinke: DLMO B2 MOD.L +20 481
#note This is my only out.
>Arie_Sinke: (E) +2 483
