>Joshua_Sokol: AIIINST -II +0 0
#note failed to record my racks here, going from memory
>Howard_Pistol: AILOV 8D VOILA +24 24
#note second time that's the opening play this tournament
>Joshua_Sokol: AGINSTT 7E STATING +69 69
>Howard_Pistol: ?ABEOST 9G BOASTEr +73 97
#note Howard said he was frustrated that he made this mistake and should have played BOATErS in the same spot. 9E SEABOoT was also possible
>Joshua_Sokol: EINPW 8L PEIN +35 104
#note was ready to play WIPE before he designated the blank as an R. I thought that was smart, since a D would have yielded more overlaps.
>Howard_Pistol: OOW 10I WOO +19 116
>Joshua_Sokol: ALTWZ M3 WALTZ.. +56 160
#note didn't fully consider blocking more with WALTZ 11H, sacrificing only 7 points. Likely not worth it.
>Howard_Pistol: JT 4L T.J +20 136
>Joshua_Sokol: ELM 11I ELM +29 189
>Howard_Pistol: BDEIT 12I DEBIT +36 172
>Joshua_Sokol: IVY 13M IVY +22 211
#note I discussed this vs (T)IVY M12, since I was in the lead and might have preferred to let Howard's play to the triple close the board. But it's probably too dangerous, I'm not ahead by enough, he might have something big ending in Y whereas with IVY he doesn't score as much as often, however the board remains pretty open.

#note I remember seeing nothing in the pool that he could hit with the Q
>Howard_Pistol: ?X 15K eX +34 331
#note super surprised he didn't have a real E here.
>Joshua_Sokol: EES 10M SEE +24 399
#note Howard was unsure of WALTZER, now he had to find out.
>Howard_Pistol: AEGHKLO - +0 331
>Joshua_Sokol: CEEFIOR 2F FE. +17 416
#note kind of screwed up here, I couldn't see a way to go out iin two and didn't see his good responses to this play.
>Howard_Pistol: AEGHKLO 1D EGO +10 341
#note nice
>Joshua_Sokol: CEIOR 2A COIR +14 430
#note best is (E)R for 2
