#note Sim likes keeping GNR? the best as it bingos 74% versus RT? at 71% or NRT at 73%, but the G may help score a little better. I didn't really consider keeping the NG combo so it'll be an interesting consideration for future turn 1 exchanges. I'm okay with NRT? here but RT? is probably a little better.

>Karen_Smith: AJ 14H .AJ +26 44
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEHILOU 12B HAULIE. +20 94
#note Clearly best, 12F AI(R)HOLE scores the same but keeps a U instead of the O.
>Karen_Smith: DEI E10 DE.I +10 54
>Patrick_Beatrez: BIOOORT 13A ROB +23 117
#note (H)OBO is best on equity but gives back a huge spot. B11 B(H)OOT looks better and doesn't keep 2 Os. ROB puts my rack in a vulnerable spot and is a poor play.
>Karen_Smith: AET 14A ETA +25 79
>Patrick_Beatrez: AINOOQT G7 Q.AI +28 145
#note 10B QAI(D) is 6 more points.
>Karen_Smith: IRT I6 RI.T +13 92
>Patrick_Beatrez: AKNNOOT 15G K.NO +19 164
#note There aren't really any reasonable plays here, I don't really want to play (U)NKNOT for 20 and open up more space for her. KENO looks best.
>Karen_Smith: CEEINRS D4 SINCERE +73 165
>Patrick_Beatrez: ALNOOTX 8A AXL. +33 197
#note Almost AXOLOTL on my rack. I got greedy for a couple extra points here, but C3 LOX is better than AXL(E).
>Karen_Smith: ELMO C3 MOLE +18 183
>Patrick_Beatrez: NNOOSTV 13G N.V +24 221
#note She opened up an A hook that I don't have, but N(A)V is forced.
>Karen_Smith: ADEINRS J1 RANDIES +68 251
#note SANDIER/DRIFT or SANDIER/AMOLE score much better and are more defensive.
>Patrick_Beatrez: EINOOST 1C SNOOTIE. +77 298
#note Only bingo.
>Karen_Smith: EEW 2E EWE +31 282
>Patrick_Beatrez: HIORUYZ A13 ..Z +36 334
#note Nothing is very inspiring here. It would be nice to hold onto the Z since it has the 6B spot and the REZ drop, but I couldn't find a good play that held onto the Z. 4H HY(D)RO is that play, scoring 32 keeping IUZ. I'm not sure if I really want to open that up with the blank still out and me having enough scoring tiles for the next few turns on the closed board, so I still like REZ. There are only 5 vowels unseen with 16 in the bag, so hoarding my vowels will be strong.
>Karen_Smith: GMPY 5I G.MPY +35 317
#note Nice play.
>Patrick_Beatrez: AHIORUY B2 YAH +28 362
#note I saw L3 RU(P)IAH for 30 but I want to hoard my vowels. If she bingos with the remaining pool then I may still have a chance to win, so I'll make her use the P or Y to do that. L3 HY(P)O may be a better way of playing so that I block any potential bingos, but YAH gives me another scoring spot while holding an O, but there is still AOO unseen so maybe it'll give her a spot instead.
>Karen_Smith: DO B6 DO. +23 340
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?BIORTU A1 ROB +27 389
#note I didn't see a good way to fish for bingos here so I just score 27 and move on. Somehow Quackle likes 4J (D)OUBTs the best for win%. E5 BI for 23 holding ORTU? might be the way to go for a bingo to widen the spread.
>Karen_Smith: OW 3G WO +19 359
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?AFIPTU L3 PU.A +16 405
#note Not seeing any way to fish for a bingo, so I score with PUPA and set up my -IT(Y).
>Karen_Smith: DEGLSTV 5C ..VED +18 377
#note E4 EDS for 28 is best.
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?FGIT 2I F.G +12 417
#note M2 GI is best to set up my out play since she doesn't have a vowel anymore.
>Karen_Smith: GLST F4 L.G +8 385
#note 3L (P)ST is best for her to block my best out.
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?IT M2 pIT. +22 439
>Patrick_Beatrez: (ST) +4 443
