#player1 JJB John J. Bulten
#player2 RF Ryan Fischer
>JJB: AEEHILY 8H YEH +18 18
#note 2:18 [22:42] JJB still seems to favor holding vowels, obsessed with hyla, discounting yeah (3.7 better value) and hiya, and not searching to find aiyee. Placement is also debatable.
>RF: ?AFJOOR J8 .AJ +29 29
#note ~2:00 [~23:00] Best.
>JJB: AEILRTU 11F URALITE +78 96
#note 0:26 [22:16]
>RF: ?FHKOOR 12L FORK +42 71
#note ~1:12 [21:48] Two strong plays are worth a bingo, but RF misses a true bingo: forehock# 102 (31.6 diff).
>JJB: AEFIISU O12 .UFI +33 129
#note 0:45 [21:31] RF compliments JJB on this efficient dump.
>RF: ?ABHNOS 7G HOB +27 98
#note 5:09 [16:39] RF shares JJB's propensity for long bingo searches. Here they are bothans#/bonhams#/bhoonas# 72 (only 6.3 diff) and hebonas# 68.
>JJB: AEINRSX 10E AX +50 179
#note 0:31 [21:00] The best play is an easy one, and JJB is less concerned about time, but needs to cash his bingo tiles. Xenias (44) is also seen, and JJB correctly determines there is no killer play in H column.
>RF: ?AAENSU D7 NAUSEAs +74 172
#note 1:05 [15:34] Also guanase 13g.
>JJB: DEINRSS M11 S.D +16 195
#note 3:46 [17:14] JJB burns time to play a very cheap extension that advertises his rack. Given that, pluralizing in row 12 is better, and hajis 15 alone has the best leave (6.7 diff).
>RF: EEEIIOV -6 +0 172
#note 0:14 [15:20] Eerie g9 18 rates 7.3 above this best trade.
>JJB: CEGINRS E2 CRINGES +74 269
#note 0:33 [16:41]
>RF: AEELNPT 8A PLE.. +21 193
#note 4:39 [10:41] This play looks suitable but RF's followups indicate a rash of bad draws derailed the bingo for too long. Apnea h11 30 rates up by 5.5.
>JJB: EILOQVY D4 QI +46 315
#note 0:40 [16:01] JJB's second power 2-way off his own bingo.
>RF: AELNOTT 9I T.O +10 203
#note 1:10 [9:31] Tot k9 14 takes better advantage of board tiles.
>JJB: ELMOVWY B6 WE.LY +27 342
#note 3:50 [12:11] JJB chooses a strong block (over molly). Quackle static evaluations indicate move c12 as 5.6 better, but with significant risk (mow has less risk). Also of note: amole 30, vows 18, wye 30, om 22, even wavy 17.
>RF: AEIILNT H11 .ALII +18 221
#note 0:20 [9:11] RF is starting to use JJB's time. If 14n 10 has bingo leave with 4.4 better value.
>JJB: AGMMORV 10J .AR +19 361
#note 2:08 [10:03] Trading all would be better than this leave! Many safe overlaps are available, starting with ogam 6g 31 (23.0 diff), so it is unclear how this got onto the board.
>RF: ?DDENNT 5C D..N +5 226
>RF: ?DDENNT -- -5 221
#note 1:45 [7:26] Neither of us know how this happened; maybe the actual word was ditt#. Both coolly walk to the challenge station silently anyway. RF had the blank for undinted# 63 (43.9 diff).
>JJB: GIMMOOV 14G V.M +8 369
#note 0:55 [9:08] Om 22 is still available and is now the best by 15.1. Momi 22 and vlog 13 block partially, and momi 14e 10 blocks fully with better leave. Both players are making midafternoon errors.
>RF: ?DDENNT 12C D.N +4 225
#note 0:09 [7:17] RF continues insisting on exactly this leave, even at 4 points, and appears justified by his draw. Quackle prefers nerd g9 20 by 7.0.
>JJB: CGIMOOZ A2 GIZMO +32 401
#note 0:42 [8:26] JJB cashes the last high-point tile correctly.
>RF: ?DEENOT 3E .EDOlENT +60 285
#note 4:59 [2:18] Even without the phony, two turns totaling 64 are still equal to two good non-bingo turns. RF's search does not turn up pentodes 90; internode 68 and coextend 64 are interesting but not enough to turn the tide.
>JJB: BCDGOOR H1 BR.OD +27 428
#note 2:24 [6:02] Rondelet would've made the triple harder to cash, but might not have against other racks. The other bingos would definitely have done so. Doob rates 5.1 better.
>RF: IINSTVW J1 VI.W +12 297
#note 0:15 [2:03]
>JJB: ACEEGOT L1 CO.TAGE +26 454
#note 1:33 [4:29] Cottae (by 1.6) and togate use this slot better despite lower score, and do not permit the hook.
>RF: INORSTU 8L RUIN +27 324
#note 1:49 [0:14] RF still has time to plan two outs, and this fine choice is only 9 behind best continuation: victor 1j 33, pat or pan k5 23, sun 8l 16+8.
>JJB: AEEENPT 1L .EPE +24 478
#note 3:22 [1:07] JJB has no improvements on a simple best play. Pease(n) and pat were seen, and come into other continuations, but were not needed in this one.
>RF: OST B1 SOT +14 338
>RF: (AENT) +8 346
#note 0:08 [0:06] RF has noted his play is frequently characterized by synergy, but that factor is inconsistent for everyone and did not come together here. JJB's open style made at least part of the score difference. Points improvable based on tiles played: JJB 0, RF 43. Points improvable based on values: JJB 60.8, RF 149.0.
