>cesar: CDEGLNR -CDGL +0 0
#note eep, no. completely missed CLEG. but almost anything is better than exchanging here.. CRED, GELD, which i wanted to play for a while is fine too... it seemed right to exchange for some reason. i haven't been trying to do equity as much, but my leaves are not working at all this tourney.
>josh_s: ?EIKNSU H7 SUNlIKE +80 80
#note Josh: I considered dropping the U on the star here, because I can just play a bingo if he exchanges again, but I thought better of it and came up with this.

"Cesar del Solar, you're like a sun to me!"

SpUNKIE is even better, since it slots something. Cesar would have played REBOX/SPUNKIER and lost his turn
>cesar: BCENORX 11H .CEBOX +34 34
#note yeah, BOX is fine at G6. ICEBOX gives an asston of points back.
>josh_s: ADEMNRR 8H .NDERARM +86 166
#note christ

>cesar: CEHINRU O8 .UNCHIER +107 141
#note for some reason it took me about 8 minutes to play this. i was mostly trying to reset my brain to normal. doesn't feel good to be 12-3 and then be staring at a likely 4th straight loss.
>josh_s: ADEGILL 10J DALE +31 197
#note I had 3 spots to play GLADLIER and all of them looked phony. I thought it was only GRILLADE. Why is GLADLIER a word??? This would have been the greatest beatdown ever. MUNCHIER for 107? Take this!!
>cesar: DEEEGMT N6 GE.M +15 156
#note quackle likes 7H SEEMED best, it's cute, but why would i block so many lanes... bad position anyway. GERM is probably not right. maybe something like DEGERM or EXED.
>josh_s: ?EFGILY 13G F.Y +17 214
#note I chickened out of (LO)GILY here at L10
>cesar: DEEEOTY N13 TYE +26 182
#note i hate doing this. quackle's choices are 14E EYE or 12K YO, both of which seem disgusting. i don't understand how wiegand wins 99% of his games.
>josh_s: ?BDEGIL 7M B. +14 228
#note BEGIRDLE is a word, pretty sure I didn't know that one
>cesar: AADEEJO 14I AJEE +32 214
#note considered 12G OKA forever.
>josh_s: ?DEGILT 15G DIG +22 250
#note 7A DELIGhT(S) is the only bingo that plays. I missed it, but it is comparable to this play.
>cesar: ADLOOOR 12J LOO +21 235
>josh_s: ?EILNOT 14A pOTLINE +73 323
#note hOTLINE is better than pOTLINE. I considered both but thought more 3x3s played through the H with cesar's range. 220 words play through the H and 293 through the P. Hmm.
>cesar: ADORRRS L4 ARDO. +17 252
#note 15B ROAD? ... :/ :/ :/
>josh_s: AAGIILW 5I WAI. +14 337
#note I'm better off blocking the 3x3 at this stage of the game I think, just take the points with 15A AWA
>cesar: NOORRSV I2 VRO. +11 263
#note how could there be so many Os in this bag?
>josh_s: AAGILPS A12 PI.A +24 361
#note I almost played GI(p)A because of blank blindness, as I was ready to play the P in a double P word when I started considering GIGA over PIPA. Jeez. 13B PIAL is fine too, considered that as well. The coolest play is at M2. PIASABA!
>cesar: AINOORS 9G O.O +8 271
#note POON probably. this game is over.
>josh_s: AGLPSTU M1 PLUGS +27 388
#note Lots of plays to consider. I went for maximum points to outrun two potential bingos. If Cesar plays a bingo next turn, I can play two tiles and leave one in the bag to possibly withstand bingo number 2.
>cesar: AAINRST B6 TSARINA +65 336
#note missed INTARSIA, but i had like a minute left.
>josh_s: AEQSTTW 8A Q.T +36 424
>cesar: EFHIINZ J4 F.ZE. +43 379
>josh_s: AESTTUW 1M .UT +15 439
#note -3 to PEW in the same spot
>cesar: HIINV C12 HI. +20 399
>josh_s: AESTW D4 WETAS +32 471
>josh_s: (INV) +12 483
