Apparently there’s a lot more involved than fitting rare words into nooks. This video blew my mind a little bit. Top players reason about words like chess piece

  Scrabble is interesting because average people think about it like a casual game, but it's nearly as strategic as chess despite significant randomness. Most people play with a completely greedy approach. Thinking just one move ahead about rack and board state is enough to beat someone with a great vocabulary but no strategy.
