#note I figured with only 1 R unseen and Barry not having just played GRAMP over GAMP, this was a decent setup, although it is quite vowel heavy.
Quackle like C11 AGIO for 10 opening up 15 row with all 4 S's unseen. I'm not convinced.
I could also trade to ER.

>Jason_Vaysberg: AEEIORR 15F AERO +14 145
#note Quackle is suggesting played from H11 using both of my R's. Again, I have that A row to myself now. Quackle can't look ahead many turns as that spot just sits there, so it is undervaluing the power of retaining an R. My play is best of the plays that don't use both R's and keep 3 vowels. I'm fine with this.

#note gLADIER is the hardest to hit back in B column.

>Jason_Vaysberg: AEEIQSZ O1 QI +38 260
#note Quackle wants me to play QIS for 5 more with 3 more unseen S's and no great S hooks on this board.

>Jason_Vaysberg: AEEENSZ N12 E.NE +14 274
#note I feel like this is the play that won me this game. I am now threatening ZEES on the 15 row, but will also be able to hit the O row with DFLMOT (40% of unseen pool) as well as many 2 tile combos. If I somehow miss, and 15 row gets blocked, I still have B6 ZA at a minimum.
In theory, Barry could have big J or K plays on 15 row too, *but* I would think he would have used those tiles last turn if he had them as scoring spots like B6, L12 from 8L, etc. are readily available.
Really happy with this play.
>Barry_Keith: ADO 15L OD.A +18 283
#note Barry "hemmed and hawed" for quite awhile before he played this. He didn't seem to want to be playing here.
>Jason_Vaysberg: AESSTUZ O8 ZETAS +48 322
#note Quackle actually prefers burning the S with ZESTS here given the consonant heavy pool, good overlaps for A's and lack of meaningful S-hooks on this board.
>Barry_Keith: ITW B6 WIT +18 301
#note Barry almost certainly has the last E after this play. And does not have the J.
>Jason_Vaysberg: AABDLSU 6B .AUL +7 329
#note Quackle struggles in these pre-end game spots, but I'm holding the last 2 A's, so row 4 isn't a bingo threat. I'm opening up a U, but Barry would need some very specific tiles. Moreover, I'm really banking on my inferrences that Barry likely has letters like E, S, and T and is unlikely to have had the J or K on his last play. Given that he drew 3 tiles and there are 4 in the bag, it is likely he drew either J or K, but I like my chances in an end game where he plays 2 to 3 tiles to score with one of those letters. I do not like my chances if I let him bingo with like JOKIEST or F1 SETIFORM or something.
>Barry_Keith: EFJ 10I J.FE +28 329
>Jason_Vaysberg: ABDKSST M9 TSK +23 352
#note D4 DAUBS or BAUDS is best. But this is one of many winning plays.
I played TSK here to block M7 DOMS for Barry, but wasn't realizing I have 33 point TSK on 15A as a sweet follow up after DAUBS/BAUDS.
>Barry_Keith: IMOSV E3 VIO. +14 343
#note E4 MOL sets up a nice VIMS spot and still blocks my out. This is just 1 spread point behind.
>Jason_Vaysberg: ABDS C5 D.BS +21 373
#note M1 DAB scores 5 more and blocks Barry's high scoring out. I think I was very short on time here though.
