Advanced Rack Management
♟️ Think Two Turns Ahead
The best move is not always the highest-scoring one. Rack leave quality determines your scoring potential on the next turn — and the one after.
✓ Good Leave
S, E, R, T retained — maximum flexibility
✗ Bad Leave
All vowels or all consonants — severely limited plays
