>Joshua_Sokol: ?AAEEIM H8 AMIE +12 12
>Michael_Ecsedy: EHMUV 11C HUMVE. +28 28
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ADEINW I3 WINDAgE +72 84
>Michael_Ecsedy: AEHPS H1 SHAPE +53 81
>Joshua_Sokol: EFIOSUY G2 OY +27 111
>Michael_Ecsedy: AZ 10B ZA +36 117
>Joshua_Sokol: EFINNSU 9C FUN +23 134
#note Did not know the N hook on SHAPEN! 6F FUN(D) is 4 more points and creates another bingo lane
>Michael_Ecsedy: AENV J1 VANE +24 141
>Joshua_Sokol: EIINSTY D11 .NITY +24 158
#note I considered (V)INY F11 and (U)NITY here. I totally spaced on just I(V)Y for 11 to keep the best leave. I didn't want to create an L hook with (V)INY, and for some reason I didn't think Michael was going to be able to make use of the Y in UNITY.
>Michael_Ecsedy: EIQRRSU 12H SQUIRER +92 233
>Michael_Ecsedy: EIQRRSU -- -92 141
#note This was a tough challenge, because I thought ESQUIRER* was good.
>Joshua_Sokol: EEIKORS 15D .OKES +36 194
#note Anything I did seemed to give him easy options. I think I'm fine with him playing QI C13 here among other things, as his leave of ERRSU can lead to a lack of good options, or as we will see, more phonies. Quackle wants me to play RES(T)OKE for 42 and block QI. I didn't want to give him a better spot to score with SQUIRE
>Michael_Ecsedy: EIQRRSU C13 QI +46 187
>Joshua_Sokol: AEIILRT 1J .IRILE +30 224
#note not a good draw
>Michael_Ecsedy: ELPRRSU 12H SLURPER +78 265
>Michael_Ecsedy: ELPRRSU -- -78 187
#note Again, another tough challenge, as this might be good
>Joshua_Sokol: AADGRTU F5 GUARD +17 241
#note I was really angry that I seemingly couldn't take a more commanding lead here. This was the low point in the game I think, as I missed options hooking SHAPE making SHAPER. (6F GAR(D)A, 6E GUAR(D). Also 5F AG(EN)DA works. I wanted to shed my U here, but I missed those options. GAUD is probably better too, in the same spot I played GUARD.
>Michael_Ecsedy: ELPRRSU F1 UP +24 211
#note Michael should be playing L(A)UR(A) or (A)UR(A)L on row 7 here. But I've missed much easier stuff this game
>Joshua_Sokol: ACDIRTT J9 DICTA +16 257
#note Well, third time is indeed a charm, so I will try my best to block as many lanes as possible. But as always again Michael, I realize shortly after hitting my clock that I am actually helping him win. The A I just gave him increases his chances of a bingo by 10% over K4 DICTA. I am definitely choking this game.
>Michael_Ecsedy: ELRRRS 13I R.RER +12 223
#note luckily I get a break from the bingo or possible bingo racks, and I don't have to decide whether or not something is a word
>Joshua_Sokol: EENORTW 12J .OW +24 281
>Michael_Ecsedy: LOST 11J .LOT +24 247
>Joshua_Sokol: BDEENRT M1 .NTERBED +74 355
#note thank the lord this game is over
>Michael_Ecsedy: ATX E4 TAX +35 282
>Joshua_Sokol: CEGIILO N6 OLEIC +26 381
#note This seemed safe, but I quickly realized that my opponent still had yet another very unlikely chance of getting a bingo down still
>Michael_Ecsedy: BELNOS O4 NOBLES +51 333
#note Had he had the blank with this rack, NOmBLES or NObBLES are 101 points here at O3. Did not expect that a bingo could still come down.
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AGGIOS D3 GAG +19 400
#note Extremely lucky that he didn't have the blank and that I could coast to the win here. It's always so hard to beat that man!!
>Michael_Ecsedy: FJOT 4L J.O. +22 355
#note -2 to FO(G) 3B or 1E J(U)T(S), but this worked out better for his spread
>Joshua_Sokol: ?IOS 15A dIS..... +54 454
>Michael_Ecsedy: FT - +0 355
#note had he challenged this after making the right play last turn, he would have had more to give me when I went out next turn.
>Joshua_Sokol: O L4 .O +11 465
>Joshua_Sokol: (FT) +10 475
