>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ACEILNR 8D CARLINE +74 74
#note Semi-finals Game 1. Off to a lucky start.
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: FHMOT E7 F.THOM +28 28
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: AIORRTZ 12A ZIRA. +52 126
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: KNO A12 .ONK +51 79
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: EGJNORT J6 JO. +26 152
#note The other option is J(A)G. JOE is the more conservative option, reducing both players' bingo chances. Not usually my style, but the pressure of the matchplay format kind of forced me to change it up.
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: CEIOTW C9 COW.ITE +30 109
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: EGNRTVY 15C .NERGY +33 185
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: UUUUVV -UUUUVV +0 109
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: GHSTTUV G12 VUG. +10 195
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: DENPSY K8 SPENDY +34 143
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: EHIQSTT 13F Q.IT +14 209
#note The other option is to just drop the Q for 11, which again errs on the side of defence. I suppose if I want to be consistent with my early plays, I should do that. But really either play is fine. I also strongly considered HIE/H to keep grabbing points.
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: BOTU 12K .OUBT +18 161
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: AEEEHST O6 AESTHE.E +83 292
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: ?AESTUU F1 AUgUSTE. +66 227
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: ABDEGIL 4E G.IDABLE +78 370
#note Could not have asked for a luckier sequence.
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: ALX 1F .XAL +33 260
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: AEFILOR N2 FOLIAR +28 398
#note Now is the point this the game where I have to start thinking about maximizing spread. FOLIAR locks up the win, but it doesn't do much to help me run up the score. It was tempting to roll the dice and go for a bingo.
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: DEV L3 D.V +7 267
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: EEIMNSW O1 MEW +34 432
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: D 10B D. +7 274
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: EEINPRS 9A PE. +10 442
#note I considered leaving it open and building more spread, but I was so sure he'd hit ROBINIA or BORONIA.
>Panupol_Sujjayakorn: ?AANOOR N11 A.OON +18 292
>Matthew_Tunnicliffe: EIIINRS 5E I.SEI +23 465
