>Juraj_Pivovarov: BFO 8G FOB +16 16
#note This game is a pretty good starting point to summarize how my tournaments went.
>Matthew_Larocque: AGGJLOR 7H JAG +26 26
#note I think it's worth holding on to the extra G here, pretty good chance he plays underneath FOB.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ADEILST K1 DETAILS +78 94
#note Except I forgot the unwritten rule; Juraj always draws a bingo on the second turn!
>Matthew_Larocque: ?AGLORR 9H GOR +22 48
#note No bingos.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: CENU 1K .UNCE +27 121
>Matthew_Larocque: ?ALORTV O1 .LeVATOR +92 140
#note Wow I have a chance???
>Juraj_Pivovarov: AX L3 AX +38 159
>Matthew_Larocque: HNORTVZ 4G THOR.. +20 160
#note The star play is THROV(E), but I didn't know it. At least this prevents him from double dipping for X points.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ACR H1 ARC. +27 186
>Matthew_Larocque: EEINPVZ 2G P.IZ. +36 196
#note I can't remember if I saw ZEP N5, but it has the better leave so I don't know why I wouldn't play it.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: N 3K ..N +6 192
>Matthew_Larocque: EEENOUV 5C VENUE +18 214
#note Juraj is about to bingo again, but with this rack all I can do is get turnover and hope for a lucky draw...
>Juraj_Pivovarov: AEGNRST N8 ARGENTS +76 268
#note He could have played GARNETS 10B, but that doesn't blow the board wide open. Juraj prefers to bingo more than twice if possible ;)
>Matthew_Larocque: ABEOUWW B4 WAW +26 240
#note WOWEE!! At D1.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ?EKNSTT 10B KiTTENS +84 352
#note Only two bingos play here! Juraj doing Juraj things.
>Matthew_Larocque: BEIMOOU A1 UMBO +33 273
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EHI 9C HIE +22 374
#note This killed me. Surely any other player is going to play this at M11 to kill that wide open S.
>Matthew_Larocque: EEIIOQY 11A QI +17 290
#note But Juraj's instincts told him that I had a garbage rack with only one redeeming play, which he blocked! I wanted to exchange, but I'm not sure what I hope to draw to improve my situation. Sure the last S might be in there, to go where exactly?
>Juraj_Pivovarov: AEFINR 12A INFARE +39 413
#note But at least this would not have happened.
>Matthew_Larocque: EEILOSY C12 .OY +18 308
#note I don't even know what I'm fishing for.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EIP M11 PIE +20 433
>Matthew_Larocque: EEIILOS A6 OI +7 315
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ADEILMO K9 MELODIA +77 510
>Matthew_Larocque: DEEILSY 15H DEL.YS +42 357
#note OH MY GOD I SAW SEEDILY AND THOUGHT MELODIA BLOCKED IT. I ALMOST CHALLENGED MELODIA BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT NEEDED TO COME OFF TO PLAY SEEDILY. AND THEN I RELEASE HIS PLAY AND DON'T PLAY SEEDILY.
Frustration must have affected me here, because I always check to see if a bingo fits. This wouldn't be first time I make a horrific play during the endgame. I was just getting started!
