> I don't know how you could possibly choose between words to maximize your next move when you don't know what letters you will get? Your selection is random amongst a determined pool of tiles. You can easily maximize your move even if the move is not 100% deterministic. The fact that there is a random factor does not mean strategy is useless. This is trivially true in a lot of cases, but sticking with games: The dealer's concealed (hole) card in Blackjack is not known precisely but by counting cards, you can determine the best play even if the effect is small.
