>JayLevin: DEIMNTU 8H UNTIMED +76 76
>SkylerLutz: EFOOOSU 9M FOO +22 22
#note is OOF 7K better? Making OI at K7 seemed worse for my S. Someone can tell me if I am off base here.
>JayLevin: ANTVY K5 VAN.TY +24 100
>SkylerLutz: ?EORSTU 9B TEnOURS +60 82
#note OUTSERVE 5E for 10 more points. With one pointers and only airball bingo lines I kind of just autopiloted the first thing I saw that didn't slot a vowel by 8D. Trying to conserve brainpower and time for the rest of the game.
>JayLevin: AEZ J6 ZE.A +68 168
>SkylerLutz: DEGHLQR 10D EDH +32 114
#note I have to take the 32 here right? and just pray I can shed the Q next turn?
>JayLevin: EFLTU 11A FLUTE +26 194
>SkylerLutz: AEEGLQR -QELGA +0 114
#note I saw A11 FERAL, FLEER, etc, but i'd be keeping the yucky Q yet another turn. I noticed we were running low on T's so QAT A8 draws were less likely than usual. I could just play QAT now 7B but I really want at least two lanes open. If I close one lane he might be able to close the other and then I think I'm dead.
Since he is ahead, I assume after FLARE-type plays at A11, Jay either bingos or just plays in the B column to block and I am stuck with the Q again. With S's and blank unseen I figured I just go for them and let him score (ie open) in the A column and then try to bingo off that or to the T in the B column. I also noticed there were still a good number of A's left and that I had a decent shot to redraw one for ODE backhook.
Looking back I'm not sure if I made the right call. 27 is a lot to pass up but GQ-type leaves seem pretty rough on this board.
>JayLevin: APR 8A RAP +21 215
>SkylerLutz: AAEGRRW N8 ..WAGER +40 154
>JayLevin: ABG M13 BAG +22 237
>SkylerLutz: AAEORSY O12 OYER +39 193
#note The R at A8 is good for me, I didn't feel I needed to keep my R anymore so I ruled out YEA O13 for 10 less points. With I's and N's unseen I like the G in the M column too. Again, the bag is light on A's so I wasn't super worried about drawing a third. I didn't see FORAY which seems even better. I should have at least seen it since I played it at Tuesday club *facepalm

>JayLevin: ILW 5C W.IL +14 337
>SkylerLutz: CDHNORT L12 DOH +30 275
#note I saw DOTH 13C but I was a bit concerned about the number of i's left and didn't think I should turn over too many. Double i's seemed like game over -- someone can tell me if I'm off base here. Also I did not realize at the time but C13 is a J bomb I may need to come back.
>JayLevin: CDEEEII -5 +0 337
>SkylerLutz: CEJNPRT 13C JET +42 317
#note Got lucky. Should've saw this hotspot earlier.
>JayLevin: CEIM 15G EMIC +26 363

>JayLevin: ?ADILV 2I AVIDLy +36 399
>SkylerLutz: IIIKLNX 1F LINK +31 426
#note I saw KYLIX N1 and XI 4A but couldn't find a win. Neither can Quackle. Jay briefly put down AVOIDs but probably realized that loses and changed it.
