>Vera_Bigall: AUV 8G VAU +12 12
>Arie_Sinke: BDNPPWZ I7 W.Z +29 29
#note PWN is available and I didn't see or consider it! WUZ is better anyhow.
>Vera_Bigall: AHOY J9 AHOY +29 41
>Arie_Sinke: BDFNOPP K9 POP +41 70
#note This is best for the score - too bad these racks aren't getting any better.
>Vera_Bigall: CCII G6 CI.IC +14 55
>Arie_Sinke: BDEFMNN L10 BEND +27 97
#note This is best for the points and the slightly less consonant heavy leave.
>Vera_Bigall: EEEEEEE -EEEEE +0 55
>Arie_Sinke: ?FLMNOS 11D FONS +27 124
#note This looks like a substantial error. I didn't realize that I could play FON M9 for 25, which hangs onto the S at the cost of only two points. It's clearly better.
>Vera_Bigall: ?AEELRT M4 RELATEs +66 121
>Arie_Sinke: ?AELLMT 14F MALLETs +73 197
#note MArTELLO E4 for 68 is the safer option here but it does look like the five extra points are too much to give up.
>Vera_Bigall: RY 8M .RY +18 139
>Arie_Sinke: AEFNOQV 13C FOVEA +31 228
#note Trying to compromise between scoring points, obstructing bingo lines, and turning over tiles to get something that will help me to bail out the Q. I eschewed the higher scoring placement of FOVEA (L1 for 36) because I didn't like what it did to the board. Quackle likes VOLE H12, which scores a bit more than my play and keeps an A, which is often helpful for getting rid of the Q for a decent score next turn.
>Vera_Bigall: HRT D11 .R.TH +30 169
>Arie_Sinke: DEINNQW L1 WINED +33 261
#note I missed my standout play of WELD H12 for 48 here.
>Vera_Bigall: KNST 2J KN.TS +38 207
>Arie_Sinke: AGINOQR 14B QA. +29 290
#note QAT is fine, scoring a tiny bit more than my alternative Q play of QI 3I and also setting up NIGH for 42.
>Vera_Bigall: EEEEIII -EEEII +0 207
>Arie_Sinke: AGGINOR 15A NIG. +42 332
#note This worked out well.
>Vera_Bigall: EEN 1L .EEN +25 232
>Arie_Sinke: ABEGOOR 1G GOBO +27 359
#note This is clearly right.
>Vera_Bigall: AIJ 2E AJI +29 261
>Arie_Sinke: AEIRRTU 15H AIR +19 378
#note No idea what to do here. At least this scores. Seems fine.
>Vera_Bigall: DEO 3E DOE +22 283
>Arie_Sinke: EEILRTU 10E LU.E +14 392
#note Still not sure what to do so I opt for a play that appears to maximize equity. This is probably fine.
>Vera_Bigall: GOT 4D TOG +23 306
>Arie_Sinke: DEIRRTX 1A TRIED +27 419
#note Not sure what do do here, this looks fine. I can't play the X well.
>Vera_Bigall: AEIMSUU 5A AMIES +30 336
>Arie_Sinke: IRSX A5 .XIS +33 452
#note XIS 6A is better because it sets up RAX for me whereas my play sets up XU for 17 for Vera.
>Vera_Bigall: UU B5 .U +17 353
>Arie_Sinke: R 11I R... +6 458
>Arie_Sinke: (U) +2 460
