>Zachary_Ansell: AFNPRRT D11 FRAP +23 45
#note was 80% sure the E hook was CSW-only but might be willing to try in desperation

>Zachary_Ansell: BEMNRRT I7 BERM +21 66
>Jackson_Smylie: CIMRTWW 4B WIM. +22 134
#note TWIRP sims about the same. typically tend to avoid opening 3x3s in close calls
>Zachary_Ansell: ?NQRTUY G11 TRY +31 97
>Jackson_Smylie: CNRTTUW C2 TW.T +14 148
#note I really would like to get better at choosing between close options. I am so barely better than a monkey throwing darts when it comes to choices like TWIN vs. TWIT, and maybe worse who knows. CRTU bingoes more, I thought CNRU had some UN- synergy, plus playing through the T I am floating in TWIT, but no, CRTU bingoes more and thus scores more on average. Also, the star play, winning a sim by 7 points over TWIN, is UNWIT in the same spot - CRT bingoes a hair more but scores way more, 9 more, while UNWIT only allows 5 more on average. CRT works really well with the U I am floating, reaches one more for an S for FRAPS, and is just the more solid play despite opening the triple.
>Zachary_Ansell: ?EHINQU F10 HE +32 129
>Jackson_Smylie: CLNRTUZ 6D C.Z +34 182
>Zachary_Ansell: ?AINQUU 15A QUAsI +48 177
#note Z: I inferenced an S at the time, but in hindsight that's definitely not the right call, which Jackson goes a bit into in his annotation. (M)U significantly outperforms everything else, though I'd never have the guts to play that here. Dropping the blank is definitley incorrect though.
J: Unless I had 7 consonants with WIMP and TWIT, I think Zach can actually infer I didn't have an S with CUZ because I so often play at 15a if I have the S, given I have a lead and would score a solid 30-40 points there. That makes it a bit less necessary to block the FRAPS spot. If he does want to block, it seems JUN is a good way to do that while keeping the firepower of the Qu and the blank. However, the best simming play, 9 points ahead of JUN, is just dropping MU for 6 - he averages a whopping 86 and bingoes 73% of the time. Even after a defensive response from me, he can hit J column or 2 row bingoes. Really tough play to come up with over the board
>Jackson_Smylie: LLNRSTU 11I STULL +19 201
>Zachary_Ansell: AADEINU 12K NAIAD +24 201
#note wasnt 100% on the STULL hooks, but still a bit too reckless. DULIA accomplishes the same thing but better and Quackle seems to like fishing here too.
>Jackson_Smylie: AELNRSX O8 AXLE. +39 240
>Zachary_Ansell: AAEEEOU -AEEOU +0 201
>Jackson_Smylie: EGNORST 9M GO. +13 253
>Zachary_Ansell: AEEEFIS B1 EEE. +23 224
#note dont like how strong he likely is after GO(X) but not much i can do except hope he misses.
>Jackson_Smylie: EIINRST M2 RESITIN. +70 323
>Zachary_Ansell: AAFINSV 4I FAVA. +22 246
#note everything here under 1.5% to win, so I think I'm fine to give up on the game and play for spread here. maybe VAI(R)S instead, but the S is pretty valuable, as is the I for row 13 shenanigans.
>Jackson_Smylie: BDDKOOU 3G BOOK +26 349
>Zachary_Ansell: EIILNST 13J LITE +20 266
#note -SIN- underlaps nicely here so some potential cool plays.

#note challenged REDOUND. I knew UNDERDO and ROUNDED and didnt think there was a third.
