>Joshua_Sokol: DEILNRS -L +0 0
>Marlene_Milkent: III -III +0 0
>Joshua_Sokol: DEINORS H2 ORDINES +70 70
#note let's do this
>Marlene_Milkent: ADEIMRT 2B MEDIAT.R +76 76
#note She has READMIT(S) for 89, but instead she chose a path of sorcery. When she played this I immediately recognized that I had missed this word for almost 100 points just last game against Jeff Cook!!! It's a good thing I played a "turn brain off" move like ORDINES or else this would have severely tilted me. Instead I just found it ridiculous.
>Joshua_Sokol: AIOPRWW 1A WOW +36 106
>Marlene_Milkent: ADEHIRT 8B HARDIE.T +63 139
#note 1I AIRTHED would have been the best play here, but once again Marlene chooses the path of sorcery, blocking the only bingo I saw.
>Joshua_Sokol: AEILPRV E5 PRE.IAL +40 146
#note And now, I decided DEPRIVAL was not a valid word. It's just outside of what I've studied and I didn't remember ever seeing the word. I had probably seen it once before. PREVAILS was blocked and I was slightly on tilt from MEDIATOR and her blocking PREVAILS. Ouch.
>Marlene_Milkent: IQTU 6B QUI.T +36 175
>Joshua_Sokol: ?BEITVX 9A VEX +43 189
#note VEX looked like slightly better equity than F10 XI. It is .2 better equity-wise, but XI is much better defensively. -4
>Marlene_Milkent: EH 10B HE +40 215
#note should not have allowed this
>Joshua_Sokol: ?BBIKTY 5G K.BBITzY +86 275
#note this is the best play I've ever made.
>Marlene_Milkent: CNOV K2 COV.N +10 225
>Joshua_Sokol: AACNNOS M2 CAN.ONAS +72 347
#note I finally drew an S but I have to bingo with it
>Marlene_Milkent: EFM 8L F.ME +39 264
>Joshua_Sokol: AEEFGOR L3 RA.O +26 373
#note 7K GO(N)EF by a mile and a half, totally spaced out on the COVIN-G hook and tunnelled on this cute spot. -18 as so many plays are better with COVING
>Marlene_Milkent: ?AEGINO N7 A.IdOGEN +74 338
#note beautiful find by Marlene that I could have easily prevented with (COVIN)G plays. Sure, she has (L)EGAtION still but that is fine for me.
>Joshua_Sokol: EEFGGIT M13 FIG +26 399
#note only one IN left for IN(G), figured that at this point she probably thinks S(ORDINES) is invalid or maybe she's even forgotten it's there. So better to block AMIDOGENS.
>Marlene_Milkent: INOPTU 15G POUTIN. +33 371
#note wow, very lucky she couldn't bingo here
>Joshua_Sokol: EEGJTUU 14F JUG +34 433
>Marlene_Milkent: ESZ 13G SEZ +33 404
#note I'm frozen in my seat, hoping that Marlene doesn't try something here. I can definitely lose if she has either a bingo or a huge play on row 1. So relieved when this came down for 32 less
>Joshua_Sokol: ADEETUY 11C DE.AY +21 454
#note Still, I freaked out and wondered if (L)ORELLAS* was a word or if I was missing something else. This is 18 points worse than 3C DATE, which is obviously the right move, along with DU(L)Y, which I also liked
>Marlene_Milkent: ALLLORS A3 LORS +20 424
>Marlene_Milkent: ALLLORS -- -20 404
#note still possible to score 40 points here, but that's not enough
>Joshua_Sokol: EETU 2M .UE +10 464
#note G1 U(T)E is best but that's only because once again S(ORDINES).
>Marlene_Milkent: ALLLORS A3 ALLS +20 424
>Joshua_Sokol: ET 3C TE +19 483
#note If you ask me why I played ORDINES like that, it's especially because Kenji played ORDINES against me in Reno 2015 because he didn't remember SORDINES.
>Joshua_Sokol: (LOR) +6 489
