>Avery: ?EIIMST 5E MITIESt +89 107
#note Tempting to do 8A TIMELINES to try and win the 9-letter word side competition this tournament had, but I obviously have to play here.
>George_Asaka: NPU J5 .PUN +12 27
>Avery: ABDEITT 4B BIDET +22 129
#note Overcomplicating this position, which I tend to do in game 1. I wasn't a fan of plays like 4D TAB since they create an S hook on a board already deprived of them. But I didn't consider BAT at all in that spot, which looks to be a lot better than this.
>George_Asaka: ?AAENNR 4H AN +8 35
#note Guessing this was his rack.
>Avery: AAEEGTU F7 GATEAU +19 148
>George_Asaka: ?AEHNRV C1 VAN.sHER +78 113
#note Only other playable bingo is 11C VERANDAH.
>Avery: ADEEIJT 1A JI.ED +51 199
#note For some reason, I'm surprised that the sim likes 11E JADEITE so much more than this. I would have thought taking out this spot would be a lot better, but I guess 9 points is a lot to give up. Knowing George though, taking out easy scoring spots is likely positionally better, though in principle I should probably play JADEITE.
>George_Asaka: AIMSZ 8J .IZAMS +81 194
>Avery: AEHOTWX 9L AX +45 244
#note Thought the T would help my leave here, but apparently it's better to play TAX. I guess it does make underlaps to this harder.

>George_Asaka: OY 6N YO +32 241
>Avery: CEHOTUV 11F .VOUCH +28 305
#note Unfortunately, O1 VOUCHEES was blocked. This is a pretty good backup.
>George_Asaka: ADENRST A8 .ARTENDS +86 327
>Avery: DEFLRST 2B F.RED +41 346
#note I guess I could do FAD, but 14 points seemed like a lot to give up. There's also plenty of vowels unseen.
>George_Asaka: KOO 13A .OOK +16 343
>Avery: AILLQST I10 Q.ILT +15 361
#note Somehow spacing on QUILL? Apparently ALS is pretty similar in valuation to AST, but there's two L's unseen.
>George_Asaka: EL H14 EL +8 351
>Avery: ACILOST D10 LOC. +20 381
#note Getting kind of low on time. I don't know if I saw plays like 3I OCTAL, which seem very clear in hindsight. Not sure what I'm doing here.
>George_Asaka: EU 6C .UE +11 362
>Avery: AILOPST 3I APOSTIL +74 455
#note I get unfairly rewarded for my mistake.
