#player1 Nick_Ball Nick Ball
#player2 Jason_Keller Jason Keller
>Nick_Ball: IISTZ 8D ZITIS +48 48
>Jason_Keller: EEGGNRR E7 G.NGER +16 16
#note Briefly thought about GINGERER*, and then dismissed it. See? Not EVERYTHING is good in Collins. :-P
>Nick_Ball: ABBIQUY 7G QI +44 92
>Jason_Keller: AEIOORW D11 WOO +21 37
#note Talked myself out of 12B WOORARI.
>Nick_Ball: ACCIM C11 ACMIC +41 133
>Jason_Keller: ?AEIKRT 15A RA.K +45 82
#note I spent a while looking for triple-triples that aren't there. A lot of plays here are better than bingoing, including this.
>Nick_Ball: EJSUV I3 JUVES +37 170
>Jason_Keller: ??EEINT 5E mIsE.ENT +86 168
#note I have COREsIdENT and CORNETcIEs from 12C, but I need points here.
>Nick_Ball: EHOO 9B OHO.E +25 195
>Jason_Keller: ADFMRSY 10A FY +29 197
#note I blew through this rack too quickly and missed J2 FAMED.
>Nick_Ball: ABERUX 4H B.REAUX +53 248
>Jason_Keller: ADFMRRS J2 FA..R +31 228
#note NOW I see that spot. I'm not liking playing the D and keeping the second R.
>Nick_Ball: DU N2 DU. +22 270
>Jason_Keller: DMRSTUW 4D WUD +18 246
>Nick_Ball: AEG K2 AG..E +25 295
>Jason_Keller: AAEMRST 8A AM +20 266
#note The suggested move here is M2 AMU, but the board can just stay shut after that... 7C TAG is worth a thought to set up an S bingo.
>Nick_Ball: DEILNOS 10E .LENOIDS +69 364
>Jason_Keller: AEINRST A1 ANTISER. +77 343
>Nick_Ball: ILNOOPT 11I POOT +26 390
>Jason_Keller: BINNPTV O1 VIN +23 366
#note Things are not looking good here. I feel like I have to play through this just to stay in with a shot to win, but this is where having a better idea of the pool could help. It's pretty nice compared to my rack.
>Nick_Ball: DHILLLR B1 LYED +33 423
>Nick_Ball: DHILLLR -- -33 390
#note But I get a break here. LYE is probably enough to win. Nick also has YELD for 32.
>Jason_Keller: BENOPTT 12H PENT +21 387
#note I thought I had to block YELD, but it's probably more productive for me to play 3C BOT, let him play YELD, and hope for a counter play.
>Nick_Ball: ADELLRY 1A .LREADY +12 402
#note And then this happened. Nick talked himself out of (PENT)YL, which is enough to win here, but now I'm looking at a chance to outrun.
>Jason_Keller: ABEHIOT 13K HABIT +28 415
#note I do the calculation and see that HABIT wins, and I'm down to a minute, so down it goes. B1 LOATHE blocks his out. My play creates two more, but I'm relieved to have escaped.
>Nick_Ball: LL N13 .LL +6 408
>Nick_Ball: (EO) +4 412
