#note Didn't know SHIRTIER

#note "Please don't block the H"

"That works too"
>HarrisonKeyser: ?EEGNQS G5 Q. +11 43
>EvanChester: AAEIOPU 5B PAUA +20 87
#note Conscious sac to not set up the S hook
>HarrisonKeyser: ?EEGLNS C2 ENL.rGES +72 115
>EvanChester: DEGIOOR D8 DOGIE +25 112
#note Best. 9G GOOF is also good but I wanted to eliminate the easy scoring spot against a weaker opponent instead of making the play the maxes equity. The sim prefers my play by a little bit
>HarrisonKeyser: AAADIOR 5K AA +10 125
#note I saw 2B A(E)RADIO, but I felt close to a bingo and didn't want to blow up my rack. Forgot I was giving back big "ZAS" plays.
>EvanChester: ACOOORZ 4L ZOA +48 160
#note H: After the game, Evan told me he was hoping I would play "ZOAS". I'd studied my Z words up to 4 and about half of the Z 5s, so it shouldn't have worked, but...

E: I played this over ZOO to not give back hooks. Would do it again.
>HarrisonKeyser: ADEIORT O1 DOTE +32 157
>HarrisonKeyser: ADEIORT -- -32 125
#note I think I criss-crossed ZOEA and ZONAE.
>EvanChester: ACMOORV 8A CO.. +21 181
#note 11A VOMICA seems best.
>HarrisonKeyser: ADEIORT 6B O. +9 134
>EvanChester: AAMNORV 2A OV.RMAN +28 209
#note Easrlier on stream I mentioned that I struggle seeing VENOM, here is an example. OVERMAN is 2nd. I figured it was fine to open the top if Harrison had only low pointers, which I inferred after DOTE
>HarrisonKeyser: ADEIRTY 3M YA +22 156
#note 1F DIETARY. That rack is definitely getting added to my cardbox.
>EvanChester: AGIILMR 1F MAGI +27 236
#note Never seen 12C REMIGIAL before. MAGI seems next best
>HarrisonKeyser: DEIIRTY 3F DIRTY +21 177
>EvanChester: DILRRTW A1 W.RD +30 266
#note Best
>HarrisonKeyser: BEINNNW O1 NEW +27 204
>EvanChester: ?ILLLRT 11C L.LT +8 274
#note Definite mistake. I8 HILL seems best
>HarrisonKeyser: BEEIINN 2J BIN +24 228
>EvanChester: ?AEFILR F8 FeA.LIER +64 338
#note Best
>HarrisonKeyser: EEIINTT 15A TINTE. +21 249
>EvanChester: DJOSSUX L8 SOJUS +35 373
#note H: Evan held the X with this play and guaranteed himself a 38-point X-play on the next turn. I actually noticed this mid-game, but at the time I didn't know SOJUS was an intentional setup. Evan told me afterwards. Great setup play.

E: I didn't give the time to this turn to realize that it might just be worth playing L8 SOJU. I hit SEX there almost guaranteed and sometimes get an even better play like XERUS. Certainly close.
