#note unbelievably, i open with the Q again. that's like not going first at all
>josh: ADEOSWY 9H YOW +18 18
>cesar: CEENOSU K9 ECU +20 44
#note all right, now let's just balance this rack a little bit...
>josh: ADEEISV 12G ADVISEE +82 100
#note lol

>cesar: ACEHLTY 13B LEACHY +45 172
#note there are still 8 i's unseen but i drew an A instead, when i would have had a sick LECYTHI for 94 pts. but such is Josh's luck. this is a tough play. ACEHLT is an awesome leave, but H7 YAY for 9 pts vs scoring 45, it just seemed way too much of a sacrifice, yet it does sim pretty close.
>josh: AAEMORR 11D AROMA +25 161
>cesar: EFLLNRT 12A FERN +32 204
#note ok fine. let's sacrifice leave a little bit, but score a lot. J2 FELL is the other choice, but it's ok, this is fine too.
>josh: ADEORTU 4D OUTREAD +77 238
#note unbelievable, literally the luckiest rack in existence
>cesar: LLORTUU 8L .ULL +12 216
#note and i draw two Us to my awesome leave of LLT
>josh: ADEHIPZ 5D PHI +32 270
#note this is his rack after drawing OUTREAD out of his butt (i don't remember the other two). he can either play ZA right now for 67, or play PHI and set up ZA for even more. unbelievable.
>cesar: BJORSTU 2H JOB +37 253
#note PHI seems dangerous with the X and the Z out, but i guess i was hoping he wasn't setting something up. there is literally nothing I can do about that spot and he has it at J2 anyway.
>josh: ADEIORZ 6F ZORI +65 335
#note lol
>cesar: BPRSSTU 3B PUB +21 274
#note strongly considered N10 BUSTS, but just BUST didn't actually occur to me. this would be a nice play if i had thought of it. however, since i'm playing against someone who closes the board if you look at him funny, i can't win this game unless i open another lane. maybe 3A STUB for the comedy points.
>josh: ADEEIOT 14F IODATE +27 362
>cesar: FLRSSTW M10 FL.W +20 294
#note the bag is literally half vowels and i draw three consonants
>josh: AEINNNT 15H ANENT +33 395
>cesar: IMORSST 14B MIS +27 321
#note ok, i finally have a bingo on my rack. maybe i can play it in a spot somewhere.
>josh: GIIINNX 10M .IN +8 403
#note he spent literally 15 minutes on this move
>cesar: ?IORSTT B2 S.OTTIeR +72 393
#note O4 TROTLINeS is the best move here, lol
>josh: AEGIINX O10 .IXING +66 469
#note look at Nigel over here
>cesar: R M3 .R +4 397
>cesar: (AE) +4 401
#note seriously, i have lost the championship game more times than i can remember, certainly much more than chance would dictate
