>matt_g: AGILORT -- -70 0
#note i held for too long here because it was Matt and he played it super quickly.
>cesar: AABEJRS 8G JAB +24 24
#note i would be in business if this was Spanish scrabble (JARABES)
>matt_g: AGILORT G6 GO.I +14 14
>cesar: AEIORRS H6 OR. +8 32
#note OBI I7 cuts down his bingo chances more. (and increases my own). -4
>matt_g: AELRSTT J2 RATTLES +74 88
>cesar: ACEIRSS 4C SCARIES. +72 104
>matt_g: EPZ 1H ZEP +52 140
>cesar: OOOPRST K5 OOT +14 118
#note why not 3E POO keeping a significantly better leave? blah. -6.5
>matt_g: IQ F9 QI +24 164
>cesar: ?DNOPRS 11D ReSPOND +80 198
#note lucky
>matt_g: AENTV H10 N.VATE +39 203
>cesar: CEEIMNO 13B ENCOMI. +24 222
#note spent too long on this rack too. it seems tough to fish. i am not normally a proponent of turnover. but the X is important, the blank is important, etc. this was a hard move to me. quackle likes L4 EMO and L1 MONIE. makes sense, i just gotta remember to play equity in situations like this. ENCOMIA just gives me 6 random tiles. -4.5
>matt_g: EX 3F EX +36 239
>cesar: ?AEHNNO 12B HOE +29 251
#note three hard bingos are available here: at 14E pANTHEON and xANTHONE, and cHACONNE. i probably would have eventually seen them, the problem is that Matt started speed playing me. I had very little time this game because i take forever on moves like OOT and ENCOMIA (and wind up making the wrong plays!). 2D NOH is the best non-bingo play here. my play isn't that enormous of a mistake. -9.5
>matt_g: FKLUY 2B FLUKY +60 299
>cesar: ?AADNNO - +0 251
#note i was so flustered here that i challenged. he played fluky immediately and i believe the timers were something like 5 minutes on my side and over 20 on his side. on the way to the challenge computer i was like that's good, what am i doing? geez...
>matt_g: DEGNV 15D VENG.D +15 314
>cesar: ?AADNNO L7 AbANDON +67 318
>matt_g: FIRTU L1 FRUIT +27 341
>cesar: AABDELT K9 TAEL +38 356
#note very fortunate that this stayed open. anything that doesn't go here is at least 7% behind by win % (like B10 BE(HE)AD, which would be the play).
>matt_g: IIUU -IIUU +0 341
>cesar: AABDEHR 14B HE +31 387
#note i have too little time, but my win chances are great now. BE(HE)AD still looks like the best play particularly because i have the case A... -8
>matt_g: EY M8 YE +14 355
>cesar: AABDIIR 1A RIA +16 403
#note i have too little time here. but i figured any move that scored anything would probably win. 1A AI keeps one in the bag and doesn't let him plan a full-knowledge endgame i guess.
>matt_g: EIILMUW M12 WE +20 375
>cesar: ABDGIUW N13 WIG +20 423
#note not great, but i didn't see cilium till after i hit the clock
>matt_g: IILMU 1L .IL +6 381
#note matt mistracked me
>cesar: ABDU O1 AB +33 456
#note omg, this is the second time in as many tournaments that i miss the B hook on NEW!!!
