#player1 Mack Mack Meller
#player2 Morris Morris Greenberg
>Mack: EGLRRSU H7 RUG +8 8
>Morris: ABEEINY 10H ABYE +22 22
#note I hated everything about opening a double-double with an E for Mack after he is grooming with 1 pointers most likely. However, this crushes a 4-ply sim on my laptop (interestingly, the annotated version online prefers other plays). I almost played BEI(G)Y 9E though, which still would've given him WILDERS. I straight up missed YEA 10F though.
>Mack: DEILRSW K5 WIELD.RS +98 106
#note The lesson here is that Wild Morris's achilles is WILDER plays.
>Morris: EFINOOY 11E FOOEY +35 57
>Morris: EFINOOY -- -35 22
#note Pro-tip: don't play phony 5's on Mack. Usually doesn't end too well.
>Mack: ?AEEGLL 11C GAzELLE +74 180
#note kLEAGLE gives back slightly less, missed it
>Morris: EFINOOY 8J F.OOEY +39 61
>Mack: AEIMNPV 12B VIM +27 207
>Morris: CINORUZ L1 ZINCO +57 118
>Mack: ?AEHNOP 13C PANOcHE +91 298
>Morris: EINORUU 1L .ORI +39 157
#note Maybe I should just do REU(N)ION here or trade. 39 points is nice and all, but I need a miracle to get back into this, and miracles seem like Mack drawing NNNTTTT, and I triple-triple through the Z.
>Mack: AIIKSTV 3I KAI.IT +30 328
#note Saw KAF, but wanted to end the game sooner and block a few lanes
>Morris: DENOUUW 12K .WOUN +18 175
#note (K)UDU is kind of nice if nice means 9 points when you're down by 171.
>Mack: ADDEMSV 6J V.SED +38 366
>Morris: DEIQRTU H13 .ID +21 196
#note Quackle prefers F13 (O)D. To be fair, I only know Mack has been studying his 7-9's recently, so there's a chance he forgets the A and E hooks to OD.
>Mack: ADEMRTT O10 TA.DEM +27 393
>Morris: CEEQRTU 8F EC. +5 201
#note Quackle thinks I have no chance of winning now. That's a shame because I was feeling really good right about now.
>Mack: ENNRRST F8 .NT.R.N +11 404
#note Seriously?
>Morris: AEEQRTU 14J QUAER. +70 271
#note Always nice when you can bring the gap within 134.
>Mack: EFIIPRS 9K .IF +22 426
>Morris: AAEJLTT 11K .AJ +24 295
>Mack: EIPRSSU 15A SIRUPS +35 461
>Morris: AAELOTT 4H TAE +12 307
>Mack: BEHNOTX 2H NOH +35 496
>Morris: AGLOT B14 G. +6 313
#note Blocking EX 14A but it turns out it doesn't matter
>Mack: BETX O1 .BEX +32 528
#note He just played EX at O3 at first and then realized the monster play. Mack dominated me from the start, and really glad to see him finish 2nd at this tournament.
>Morris: ALOT 1E ALTO +18 331
>Morris: (T) +2 333
