#note I still didn't feel like I was back on my game after playing badly since round 5.
>Blue_Thorogood: BFO 7H FOB +24 24
>JD: AEMNORT 9C TONEARM +81 93
#note well, a couple of easy bingos help get one's feet

>JD: CIJOOST F7 JO. +10 103
>Blue_Thorogood: AEIILST -AEII +0 82
>JD: ACIIOST 10G IO +11 114
#note my first bingo miss of the tournament, APOSITIC# was outside of my study range although I do know APOSITIA# (aversion to food)
>Blue_Thorogood: AEHR 10B HARE +27 109
>JD: ACDINST 11E DIT +19 133
#note It was not my instinct to expect that ACST would be better than ACNS, but it is by about 1.2 in static and offers 5% more bingos in this position. however, the best-simming play is just NED at E11, which doesn't shock me - the significant upgrade in bingo percentage makes it worthwhile (maybe I'll hit PACTIONS now if I'm really lucky).

>Blue_Thorogood: AEELZ 15A LEAZE +75 343
>JD: ?DDSTUW 1A WUD +26 457
#note with no S hooks available might as well just play WUDS#
>Blue_Thorogood: IILLV E1 V.LLI +16 359
>JD: ?DILNST N7 INDuLTS +60 517
#note INDULTS gives up huge counterplays, with perfect knowledge of collins, I like quackle's suggestion of BAST at J7 setting up BASTI# and a likely out-bingo.
>Blue_Thorogood: ?EEEIRU D2 .EE +12 371
#note not sure if quackle is playing the slowplay right, his play looks reasonable.
>JD: OOOQR O8 OOR +19 536
#note I shouldn't be in any hurry to play off my tiles since he is likely to slowplay me the rest of the way.
>Blue_Thorogood: ?EIRU N2 .UI +17 388
#note strong endgame sequence by blue here, blocking GOX

>Blue_Thorogood: ? F13 ..s +19 424
#note a good Q stick by him to cut spread, but still a nice comfortable win for me.
