>Patrick_Beatrez: AADEHIT 7H AH +22 22
>Richard_Popper: IIIIIII -IIIIIII +0 22
>Patrick_Beatrez: ADEEIIT G6 EA.ED +18 40
#note (V)IE and (P)IE both look terrible so I just scored as much as I could. DEAVE is better to not open up the easy line.
>Richard_Popper: CEELORT 5A ELECTOR +78 100
#note Either placement of ELECTRO is better to not open the triple line.
>Patrick_Beatrez: EEIIKTU B2 TUI.E +14 54
#note Saving 6E EK(E), EIK has a much better chance of improving than EIITU.
>Richard_Popper: AELMN A5 .NAMEL +26 126
>Patrick_Beatrez: EEGIKPR D3 PE.KER +30 84
#note PICKEER/PECKIER both are better, but 6E EK(E) is the play now. I'm holding the G for GREAVED and EGIPR is surprisingly likely to bingo if I draw a vowel.
>Richard_Popper: AWX A1 WAX +50 176
>Patrick_Beatrez: GIOOQST E2 QI +15 99
>Richard_Popper: AOV 6I OVA +22 198
>Patrick_Beatrez: EGOOSTU C8 OUTGOES +70 169
#note Only bingo.
>Richard_Popper: GINYZ 5K ZINGY +58 256
>Patrick_Beatrez: EFINOTT 14A FI.TNOTE +76 245
#note Only bingo.
>Richard_Popper: IIII -IIII +0 256
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?BBCGIS H13 B.G +18 263
#note Missing the tough E8 SCaBBI(N)G hooking ORS. It's not a terrible idea here to burn the blank for O1 GaBB(Y) for 45, but H11 BIB(E)S looks best if I'm not going to spot the bingo.
>Richard_Popper: ADLU O5 .AULD +27 283
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?BCEISW A12 WI.E +42 305
>Richard_Popper: OR D11 OR +11 294
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?BCDFOS E10 FOB +29 334
#note F3 CO(O)F
>Richard_Popper: ?EIINRT 13H .RINIEsT +70 364
#note 15H (G)LINTIER
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?CDLRSS M8 SCoLD.RS +63 397
#note 3 points better than CORDLESS. K4 C(ZA)RS would be a much closer play to the bingo if the board was more open, but it's not likely to bingo in the future even with my blank.
>Richard_Popper: AADHJSY O13 .AJ +30 394
#note The only winning plays here are L1 HADJ(I) setting up (H)AYS where I don't have a good block or score enough, J10 JAD(I)SH holding N9 AY, or N9 AY holding JADISH and HADJ(I). H1 AYAHS for 55 is interesting, but I saw a winning play of K9 UNIO(N) which forces J(O) in one of the two spots where I then go out with F9 RIN and win narrowly. My best play after AYAHS would be F2 INI(O)N saving OUR at N8 and 15D.
>Patrick_Beatrez: IINNORU K9 UNIO. +10 407
#note Blocking his only out of SHA(N)DY. UNION/INION are equal, and 15E ORI(G)IN is also a 4 point win.
>Richard_Popper: ADHSY J12 H.YA +23 417
#note F3 AH(O)Y is best.
>Patrick_Beatrez: INR F1 RIN +23 430
#note F2 INR(O) is 1 more point.
>Patrick_Beatrez: (DS) +6 436
