>Jason_Vaysberg: ABEILPY 8H BELAY +28 28
#note 8D BAILEY or 8D BIALY OR 8D BLYPE are all better.
This also needlessly opens up BELAYING and BELAYERS possibilities.

#note best

>Jason_Vaysberg: IILOPPT M2 LOTI +21 74
#note best. Q really likes m1 POI too. I have to imagine drawing -ING double doubles from 5E have to be part of that. I don't need all the entropy right now though. IPP will keep scoring on this bingo restricted board.
>Eric_Harshbarger: ?AEILNT N5 sALIENT +63 117
#note I was a bit surprised that Eric chose this placement with higher scoring ones available. I wish I had asked about this, I'm sure he had an interesting thought pattern here.
Q likes M8 SLAINTE.
>Jason_Vaysberg: DIJPPSU 9M J.U +18 92
#note Seems fine. Q likes 12L JUS, but I'm not really looking to burn my S here personally.

#note K4 PA
>Eric_Harshbarger: ?CEEMNS 12H MENaCES +83 218
>Jason_Vaysberg: AEIPPRS 13C SAPPIER +83 198
#note best, although I seriously considered slotting it 1 over, to make it harder to score from 12 row overlaps. SAPPIER allows a lot of bingo possibilities over APPRISE, with the more flexible ER to hook and S in the C column, but that may not be a bad thing at this score.
>Eric_Harshbarger: FX D12 F.X +26 244
#note If Eric had an I or O, he could score a lot more on column 14 and more definitively block the S in SAPPIER, but would also be setting up AXE for me to underlap in row 15. So Eric either has an I or O without an E, with an E but is playing serious bingo prevention, orrr just doesn't have an I or O. For some reason, given he played this quickly, I kinda just assumed he was less likely that usually to have an I or O, or possible even just straddled with consonants in general.
>Jason_Vaysberg: ADEOOQU C11 DO.A +19 217
#note Q likes 12D FOO even at this score. I actually like my play a lot better, even though it looks odd. It gives me an opportunity to draw a 14B ZAX/ZA play, which may bypass my need to bingo, especially if I score with the Q too. It also opens up a new bingo lane to requires ending in a vowel, which may be difficult if my read on Eric being more likely than usual to be consonant heavy is correct. I really needed help here.
>Eric_Harshbarger: O 12B O.. +6 250
#note I almost jumped out of my seat when I saw this play go down...
>Jason_Vaysberg: ACELOQU A6 COEQUAL +115 332
>Eric_Harshbarger: A - +0 250
#note Eric challenged here. Not real rack
>Jason_Vaysberg: BDGNORT 10L GO.. +14 346
#note idk why I played this, but I was still enraptured by the last play I guess.
6H BROTH or B14 TO
>Eric_Harshbarger: EW K2 WE +10 260
>Jason_Vaysberg: BDNRSTZ 14B Z.. +38 384
>Eric_Harshbarger: AABDRRS 14H DARBARS +83 343
#note Beautiful play by Eric here.
>Jason_Vaysberg: DNORSTT 15E DOTS +36 420
>Eric_Harshbarger: AEFK 1H FAKE +39 382
>Jason_Vaysberg: AEHNNRT I1 .H +5 425
#note I didn't see any possible bingo for Eric here, but I saw the possibility of setting up NORTENA for myself with an O draw. Definitely need to play just 1 tile, so if I can bingo out, Eric can't know that definitively. I figured if I played one tile elsewhere, Eric will likely block the 2 row.
Quackle really likes plays like 11A AND to shed just an N, but it is assuming Eric will make his top equity move, instead of a blocking move as he should be making.
AH just looks like a block and it is super annoying for Eric to block. If he *does* block with something like AHI, he empties the bag with a full rack and I will have a turn on him in the end game to rack up some spread. idk I think Quackle is just looking at this situation poorly because it is assuming equity plays for Eric over game situational ones.
>Eric_Harshbarger: EINORU 6A .OENURI +13 395
>Jason_Vaysberg: AENNORT 3C NORTENA +75 500
#note #luckbox
Scored 502-395. I only wrote down 2 points from Eric's rack, so either we screwed that up, or he forgot to draw the last "I" after COENURI. I did plop my bingo down very quick after his play.
>Jason_Vaysberg: (II) +4 504
