>Matthew_Larocque: EGJNNST 8G JET +20 20
#note I should have thought about exchanges more. JETE takes away a lot of the defensive merit it would otherwise have. Also, moving it to the left potentially sets up my G if he plays JO.
>Paul_Terry: AEHTW J6 WHEAT +32 32
>Matthew_Larocque: GGNNRSU H3 GRUNG. +9 29
#note Maybe I overreacted, but time management was a priority for me knowing I surely needed to win my last two games to stay in the top 10. I didn't want to risk a leave like GNRS. If there was a floating I or two...
>Paul_Terry: EINTTV 3B VETTIN. +24 56
>Matthew_Larocque: CDENOSS 11D SECONDS +82 111
>Paul_Terry: ?AILOPR D1 Pe.IOLAR +76 132
>Matthew_Larocque: BCLNOUV K2 BUNCO +23 134
>Paul_Terry: OPR 1A PRO. +24 156
>Matthew_Larocque: EEFILOV E5 FILE +30 164
#note B1 REVOLVE! FIE/FOE are probably better too, but at the time I guess I felt strongly about grabbing extra points.
>Paul_Terry: AM 2F MA +22 178
>Matthew_Larocque: ?AEORVY L6 OVERlAY +82 246
#note Or OVERPAY.
>Paul_Terry: ADEIIRT 11L .I +2 180
#note Based on his next play, this was probably his rack?
>Matthew_Larocque: AAIIMWZ 1G WIZ +51 297
>Paul_Terry: ABDEIRT N9 REDBAIT +78 258
>Matthew_Larocque: AAEILMR 15L MA.E +27 324
#note I thought there might be an anagram in MATERIAL so I wasted a ton of time here. Even if I know/find 2I AMBARI 43, am I really tempting fate in game 30 with a money position on the line? I also didn't know RAMATE, but I could have played AMIRATE for turnover. Meh...
>Paul_Terry: HNT 12B NTH +22 280
>Matthew_Larocque: AEILORU O5 LOUIE +17 341
#note I was really losing it here, having to tell myself that *AURIOLE was 100% not a word.
>Paul_Terry: DEIX H11 .IXED +42 322
>Matthew_Larocque: AKR 14F KA. +17 358
#note Missed rack.
>Paul_Terry: AQUY 13A QUAY +47 369
>Matthew_Larocque: ADGINRS A13 .IS +36 394
#note My weakness in endgames is I always take the points first, for fear that I've missed something my opponent has. Play GRAND first, the Q isn't going anywhere.
>Paul_Terry: EEFLOOS N1 LOOSE +12 381
#note He said he was setting up B11 ENUF. I actually have another out that I missed, so his best plays are N2 FLOES/FLEES 26.
>Matthew_Larocque: ADGNR 10B GRAD +23 417
#note 14J GRADIN! This is the best non-out.
>Paul_Terry: EF 1M E.F +18 399
#note 21 at F5.
>Paul_Terry: (N) +2 401
