>Mike: EEFNOSU 8G FEU +12 12
>Howard_Pistol: EEQU I7 Q.EUE +25 25
>Mike: EEINOST J6 OI +15 27
#note If I'm going to fish, I should fish as strongly as possible, hence why OE 7F wins the sim. (Though Quackle may not be responding to the fishes properly...)
>Howard_Pistol: AEGLP H11 PLAGE +31 56
>Mike: AEENSTT K2 NEATEST +78 105
>Howard_Pistol: AZ G13 ZA +45 101
>Mike: ABMNOUY F14 YO +28 133
#note For whatever reason, ZA felt like a J setup. I can't explain why--call it intuition that he may well have had better plays for the Z--but I felt like I needed to block this spot. On strict equity, the play is BUNYA L1 (I only saw BONY in that spot).
>Howard_Pistol: AEKW 8K .WEAK +48 149
#note (Howard said later that he did, in fact, have the J when he played ZA. Maybe that intuition thing is on to something...)
>Mike: ABHIMNU J10 HABU +35 168
>Howard_Pistol: DFRTY 4I DR.FTY +26 175
>Mike: HIIIMNO 5E IMINO +17 185
#note Right idea, but BIMINI 12J does it better.
>Howard_Pistol: AGNR K11 RANG +28 203
>Mike: AHIINOX 9L OHIA +33 218
>Howard_Pistol: GLR N6 GR..L +12 215

>Howard_Pistol: CEEIJOR 9A REJOICE +81 296
>Mike: DDEINRT B2 DENDRIT. +74 322
>Howard_Pistol: INW A1 WIN +23 319
>Mike: ?ILLPSV 15A PLuVI.S. +60 382
#note First really tricky play of the tournament, and I'm happy to see that the sim backs me up. Take a 63-point lead on a board with suddenly very few bingo opportunities, and maximize the chance of pulling the other blank.
>Howard_Pistol: MV 7A V.M +11 330
>Mike: ABEILOU M2 LA.U +28 410
#note Saving VIRAL A7, et al., in reserve. Anything reasonable locks this up, though.
>Howard_Pistol: RST L8 ..RTS +33 363
>Mike: ?BCEIOO A6 O.E.BOIl +47 457
#note OVERBId or OVERBIg has the benefit of actually leaving me an outplay.
>Howard_Pistol: AENST 15K ETNAS +24 387
#note In reality, Howard challenged OVERBOIL, and upon winning the challenge, I promptly passed. Howard opted not to wring all the points out of the endgame (starting with ATE O1).
>Howard_Pistol: (C) +6 393
