After 3 I was in a trap with BASTE, CASTE, PASTE or TASTE. I went for a sleuth word which had the initial T and two others to clinch a five.

I hate hate hate when there are a ton of words that are different by one letter and I have to keep trying to guess that letter!

How’d you like my sleuth word at 3? Days like this are why I don’t play hard mode.
Second day in a row of getting seemingly bountiful information from my starting word, but not enough either day to do better than a 4. Yesterday I had two greens, but there were a few dozen words that were still legal, and only about half of them had been used, so there was no second word that would guarantee a 3. Today with the three yellows, there were about 20 possibles, and amazingly enough, after 1370 games, only 4 of them (taste, tasty, waste, and pasta) had already been used. And after 2, I was in the trap zone, so I went with the sleuth word on 3. I’d have probably gotten a 5 if I’d just guessed.

YEAST (So many yellows. Let’s see if a WoFcon gets me an eagle.)
TASER (Nope. But if I disregard EASTS as a possibility, I’m working with ?ASTE. that’s HASTE, CASTE, or BASTE. I’ll use a sleuth word and settle for par, rather than risk a bogey.)
WHICH (That settles that.)
BASTE (Methodical, that’s me.)
That’s when you find a sleuth word to eliminate some. Since you didn’t tell us which words you tried, I can only guess that THUMB would have served you well.

Can’t use a sleuth word in hard mode, which Gr8Kat doesn’t, but many others do. Like me! 
I get that (and I did check to see if Gr8Kat did). I decided to abandon Hard mode when it became clear that Wordlebot doesn’t use it, even against players who do.
I do, however, strive to use the forms of Hard mode, without locking myself out of the ability to use a sleuth word.

You took the word right out of my mouth.

SPARK → S and A. This evokes a word that might actually help me place both letters here.
ESSAY → Though I suppose ASSAY would have been better. Still, picking up the E is no bad thing. Need to try WoFcons, though
TESLA → And… uh, oh, I can see the trap on the way. At least TASTE & PASTE are out. B, C, H, W, we just had one of these recently ISTR… Well, let’s jump right into the trap and see where we go.
WASTE → Nope.
HASTE → Not that, either. I think it was CASTE, recently, so try
BASTE
BASIS is Scoredle’s second guess here, which allows it to finish with a birdie (there were a couple more possibles, but the solution could differentiate between them). It turned out my third guess was important, or I’d have had one more letter to check in the trap and my odds would go down from 75% to 60%.

After 2, I had it down to a surprisingly small list of prospects: GENIE, NUDGE, KNIFE, VENUE (BINGE, INDIE, and UNDUE having been used). Guessing any of them except KNIFE on 3 would guarantee me no worse than a 4.
