>Annette_Obrestad: EFILOO 8D FLOOIE +26 26
>Arie_Sinke: IMOOQRT 7C QI +26 26
#note Not much to think about here. This is fine.
>Annette_Obrestad: AAIIL 7H AALII +11 37
>Arie_Sinke: MOORRTV F6 VR.OM +24 50
#note This is fine. All the other options are worse.
>Annette_Obrestad: DORU 8L DURO +26 63
>Arie_Sinke: DEIORRT N1 TORRIDE. +76 126
#note This is an error. I saw TORR(IF)IED but wasn't 100% sure that it could be spelled with an I in the middle (thought it might only be TORREFIED, which is the more common spelling) and decided to play something I was more sure of instead. TORRIFIED is far better to avoid giving back the T.
>Annette_Obrestad: HIK 1L KI.H +48 111
>Arie_Sinke: ?ABGIIY 4L GY.I +18 144
#note BIGAMY 10B is available for 20 and looks like a slightly better play. It's just a marginal improvement over GYRI in a variety of ways - it scores two more points and the leave of I? is just a little bit better than ABI? (I bingo more after BIGAMY than any alternative.)
>Annette_Obrestad: AM 3M A.M +24 135
>Arie_Sinke: ?ABGIOY 5I YOGI +19 163
#note I drew back very similar tiles to what I played here. I played GIY and drew GOY. BIGAMY is still available and still better than my play.
>Annette_Obrestad: DERST 11C DREST +23 158
>Arie_Sinke: ?ABHLTU D10 B.UH +18 181
#note Amazingly, my top simming play is OH G8 for 18, leaving ABLTU?. OH is almost assured to bingo next turn, whereas if I play BRUH I miss fairly often. That goes against all my instincts.
>Annette_Obrestad: CEF 13C C.EF +24 182
>Arie_Sinke: ?AILNNT 4D ANTLIoN +70 251
#note This is my highest scoring and best bingo.
>Annette_Obrestad: LW 9F .WL +22 204
>Arie_Sinke: ?AEGPTW 3A GAWP +24 275
#note I just wasn't interested in playing scared here. This is my top play for equity by far and I figured I might as well take it. It does quicly rise to the top of a sim. Would anyone play PAGE 5B here? Some people probably would.
>Annette_Obrestad: AEV A1 VE.A +27 231
>Arie_Sinke: ?CEEEST 10H SECrETE +70 345
#note This is my lowest scoring placement of SECrETE (the other two placements score 71 instead of 70) but the most defensive by far.
>Annette_Obrestad: APS O10 SAP +17 248
>Arie_Sinke: AENORUZ H1 ZOR. +39 384
#note I opted for ZORI over ZOA to eliminate any nightmare scenario of out bingos from the V - in reality I am so far ahead tha I can probably withstand that and might as well play for equity with ZOA.
>Annette_Obrestad: BN B2 N.B +18 266
>Arie_Sinke: ADEENOU 5C UDO +18 402
#note No idea whether I should fish or try to obstruct something or just take the points with UDO. CP likes rOUE K10 for 6. I think UDO is probably fine.
>Annette_Obrestad: AENSTTU 13I NUTATES +72 338
>Arie_Sinke: AEEEJNX 14M EX +38 440
#note Unfortunately for me, there is no way to play both the X and the J.
>Annette_Obrestad: N A1 ....N +9 347
>Annette_Obrestad: (AEEJN) +24 371
