#note missed I5 ORY(X), like that one a bit better.

#note I should have made more setups this tournament
>Joshua_Sokol: AADEINR B11 A.NED +33 174
#note something that I think happened a lot more than usual in Lake George was me having a no-go.

C7 A(WE) is a strong fish, but whiffs when I draw an E, which sucks. I didn't consider A(WE), just decided to score here.
>Joel_Horn: EJT 5J JET +30 208
>Joshua_Sokol: AEIKLNR L8 RA.NLIKE +78 252
#note This is actually not a word, even though SUNLIKE, SNOWLIKE, CLOUDLIKE, and many other similar words are words. Joel held and had a bad feeling about this, but eventually let it go. I didn't recognize this as a word I've seen before, but I thought it had to be good. Nope.

>Joel_Horn: AEHISV 15G HEAVI.S +39 247
#note so glad he stopped at the S
>Joshua_Sokol: DILMOOU L1 MOUL. +20 272
#note this was a position where I had no idea what I wanted to do. I think I didn't want to play DUOMI 4K because I didn't like the leave, and I didn't want to play MOD(I)OLI 13I because of the spot it opened up. But maybe I didn't see DUOMI, because that looks like clearly the best play here. Joel didn't know MODIOLI but certainly would have let it go because it would have given him a massive play. This is just a bad play on my part. No excuses.
>Joel_Horn: ITZ N13 ZIT +38 285
>Joshua_Sokol: BDEGILO 2J BO.GIE +30 302
#note This is very aggressive, but I need to be at this stage.

>Joel_Horn: APR O1 R.AP +27 312
>Joshua_Sokol: CDEGLOS 7B COG +20 322
#note I just made a waiting move here, perhaps again I should fish for column D with 7B GO, or maybe play more tiles with 14D OGLED.
>Joel_Horn: Q N9 Q. +11 323
>Joshua_Sokol: BDELOSS C11 B.SE +28 350
#note I considered this and I considered 11K O(N)ES. I was scared of keeping BDLS but I probably should take the 30 points.
>Joel_Horn: RT 13K R.T. +26 349
>Joshua_Sokol: ADELOSS J4 A... +11 361
#note I can still play 11K O(N)ES and probably win so long as he doesn't bingo, but I feel confident that this play will also win the game. However D(U)O 3K is a better version of this play. Paranoia.
Unplayable bingo count: 4
>Joel_Horn: ?ADEEOU 11K U. +12 361
#note now he blocks my 30-point play, putting my lead into question.
>Joshua_Sokol: DELOPSS N9 ..S +12 373
#note nbut drawing the P was great. Joel had a scoring option I didn't consider, which is why the P was incredibly lucky to draw.
>Joel_Horn: ?AER O1 ....pEAR +27 388
#note this.
>Joshua_Sokol: DELOOPS 14F POOD +23 396
#note unplayable bingo count: 5
I didn't realize that he had OUD for 20 here, so I blew the game by not blocking. Luckily I still had enough to tie.
>Joel_Horn: DEOU N4 OUD +20 408
>Joshua_Sokol: ELS G4 SEL +10 406
#note Joel had DOURA at 14E which most likely wins, instead of REAPPEAR. Still, I had many chances to just win this game, especially in the endgame, but I was low on time and didn't fully consider what was coming. Ouch.
>Joshua_Sokol: (E) +2 408
