>Merrill_Kaitz: IIIIII -IIIIII +0 0
>Evans_Clinchy: ?GHJLLT -GHJL +0 0
#note I always tell myself to give more thought to keeping H's on opening trades. Then the time comes, and I forget. Oh well.
>Merrill_Kaitz: EO 8H OE +4 4
>Evans_Clinchy: ?DEELOT 9F fEEDLOT +67 67
>Merrill_Kaitz: ?AEIISS M3 dAISIES +75 79
>Evans_Clinchy: AEETTWY N2 YEW +24 91
#note Not really a great board to be fishing for bingos. I should probably keep a scoring tile for next turn -- maybe TWEE 7H, which sets up the Y.
>Merrill_Kaitz: EEINRRS 10A RERISEN +66 145
>Evans_Clinchy: AEEKTTU K5 TAKE.UT +44 135
#note If I were ahead, I might consider taking out the TWS with EUREKA. But this is a much better equity play, and it leaves stuff open for now. Works for me.
>Merrill_Kaitz: IPTW A7 TWI.P +30 175
>Evans_Clinchy: AABEFOY L2 FOY +38 173
#note This sims best, although I gave serious thought to taking out the TWS in the top-right corner with FAY. I'm still not sure which is right.
>Merrill_Kaitz: EFHORST C4 FROTHE.S +66 241
>Evans_Clinchy: AABEGOU B5 ABO +26 199
#note This sims best. I'm hoping I can hit that TWS in the corner next turn, since I've got a couple tiles to hook AR.
>Merrill_Kaitz: DEEN D3 NEED +29 270
>Evans_Clinchy: ACEGHRU A1 REACH +46 245
#note The other option is to pass up the A1 spot and play HUG 11E. Decided against that for two reasons -- one, I don't want Merrill to claim this spot, and two, this is still a bad board to be fishing. At this deficit, I think it's time to start desperately grasping at points.

>Evans_Clinchy: CGJNRUV 2E JUC. +15 296
#note Yeah, yeah, I saw JOG. But how am I gonna bingo with CNRUV?
>Merrill_Kaitz: ABILP O4 PIBAL +51 389

>Merrill_Kaitz: AQ 11I QA. +12 401
>Evans_Clinchy: AGILNRU I11 .UAG +15 325
#note Quackle suggests SURA E10, setting up a bingo lane to hook my L. Good idea, didn't think of it.
>Merrill_Kaitz: GLNU E10 .LUNG +12 413
>Evans_Clinchy: AIILNRV 14B VIR.IN +24 349
#note VINAL 13C is better, followed by REIN B9 next turn.
