>JD: EIRRTTV -- -12 0
#note there are plenty of plays that don't suck here. VITE looks good, not giving back a whole lot of points, or TRIVET to open the board more. I got confused with VIVO.
>Neil_Scott: DGO 7F GOD +15 35
>JD: EIRRTTV J6 VI.T +15 15
#note I was pretty demoralized by this point, to be honest. I think in retrospect that I like VERT at 9D to open things up, since I'm already down a little but with a reasonable leave.
>Neil_Scott: HIKT 9E KITH +26 61
>JD: AAELRRT 6J .AR +6 21
#note really unnecessarily fishy - might as well just play the relatively normal play of KRAAL
>Neil_Scott: ADEFLOR M2 ALFREDO +83 144
>Neil_Scott: ADIQ (challenge) +5 149
#note challenged VARE to be sure

#note I think I missed the AKIN hook, because PINNA looks by far best to me now.

>JD: ?AEINOU 2C mOINEAU +64 269
#note DOUANIER makes it much easier for me to bingo again. definite mistake. although really I'm not going to win this game at this point.
>Neil_Scott: IX L12 XI +38 415
>JD: ?AABMSS 1A SAMBA +48 317
#note I didn't know TSAMBAS, but holding the blank here seems fine anyway.
>Neil_Scott: GSUV O3 VUGS +20 435
>JD: ?CEGPST K5 G.T +10 327
#note I was fishing for ESCAPEE/ESCAPES on row 13. it won't be enough unless Neil does something ridiculous, but who knows. GET at 14M makes it less likely I draw the play, but also blocks cheap scores on column M and scores a few extra points - maybe that way I can eke out a win.
>Neil_Scott: AEILW N10 WAILE. +34 469
>JD: ?CEENPS 13C ESCaPE +46 373
>Neil_Scott: ILOS I10 OILS +16 485
#note DIOLS is an extra point.
>Neil_Scott: (N) +2 487
#note a really dreadful game to end the tournament, crippled fundamentally by my early phony (not for the first time this tournament, either). if I ever needed encouragement to really master the CSW15 lexicon, this game should provide it.
