#note someone told me that in Collins it's harder to block bingos, but a lot of defense boils down to controlling where they bingo. but i can't even really do that here. exchange keeping AET.

>cesar: AEIIIOT -IIIO +0 96
#note this is an insane draw, and something nearly identical had happened two games ago. this time it took me about 3 minutes of steaming to exchange again.

#note i barely remember METAFILE coming up at some point, maybe while bun was studying. i have to learn all the 8s by Niagara Falls to have any hope of competing or placing above a 1600 level. -24.5

>cesar: EEIIMTU J5 EMU +25 160
#note maybe E2 ETUI? i didn't want to fall further back and maybe i can open something.

>cesar: ?ABEIIT 14A ITA +15 175
#note he blocked bainite and i totally lost it here. i should definitely be a bit easier on myself, but this kind of play will never work. it is trivially easy to block (and score a nice amount while doing it too). maybe C13 JIB does a bit more for my win chances, or even E2 TIBIA, but idk. i'm still not that unlikely to win; i could bingo and draw the second blank. -19 .. i hate making plays out of steaming, but this was game 20 and i really wanted one more win.

#note i saw the other 7 in this rack. sHOWBIz is worth playing here obviously. i really was annoyed at drawing the second blank. maybe i can exchange it. -7.5
>m_sulaiman: DEEI M2 IDEE +25 422
>cesar: ??BBORT N4 RaBBiTO +73 381
#note my thought in playing this was that i needed one more collins bingo to at least get a little cred with the cool kids, and more importantly, the Q is out and i'm setting up some possibilities; requin etc seem possible. i need to get lucky.
>m_sulaiman: PQU 8L QU.P +72 494
#note lol
>cesar: ADEGINR L8 .INDAR +32 413
#note i almost like have a bingo lol. i could have fished for PERIGEAN or PINDAREE? i think i thought of pindaree and then forgot. sad! (although, it wouldn't play after his next move).
