NOW (c2, 26) we must play off the very tiles we drew, keeping the best bingo chances, not block T-hook at 14g, as we now may be meeting our AELORTW+O [1], and are in a must-bingo situation. NOWT dispenses with the precious T which, with this gameboard, is the equivalent of the S, and AELR can be easily undermined with a three-tile draw. I'm expecting ZEE or ZED from my opp now (they deserve it, having played 14 to our 7 tiles on last three plays), but I'll IPSS in my pants if opp plays PSI (h12)!
