#player1 RF Ryan Fischer
#player2 JJB John J. Bulten
>RF: AEGKRUU 8E KURU +16 16
#note 0:27 [24:33] RF: Didn't know KAURU#. JJB: A dump worth 13.4 here; kagu and augur are also worth considering.
>JJB: ?ILMPRW F7 L.MP +14 14
#note 2:17 [22:43] JJB: Quackle calls for plim# 21 (7.5 better), and certainly prim should have been visible.
>RF: AEEEGIU E5 GEE. +20 36
#note 0:55 [23:38] RF: Missed EUGA(R)IE#, but it's a lot to open for only 22 points. It's this, EUGE#, or exchange. I'm fine with my play. JJB: Valuation of 21.3 better for a 5-voweled 7 does seem indicated despite the opening, and opponent's rack bingos in either case.
>JJB: ?EILRRW 5E .RoWLIER +72 86
>JJB: ACGNSVV (challenge) +5 91
#note 2:17 [20:26] JJB: Took the risk on the relative certainty of the word over twirler 65 and wriggler 61, and got a 5-point reward.
>RF: AEIU L4 U.AEI +12 48
#note 1:05 [22:33] RF: Forgot my leave, but it was ridiculous. But for 12 points, I don't really have to exchange.
>JJB: ACGNSVV 8K V.VAS +33 124
#note 1:16 [19:10] JJB: Convincing case to use the S.
>RF: ADEEHOS 4G HOE +19 67
#note 1:39 [20:54] RF: 11 points is a lot to give up, so 6G HEAD is better. JJB: 3.3 diff.
>JJB: CEGGNOT 3B COGENT +26 150
#note 0:50 [18:20] JJB: Gong 27 and conge 29, both at 3f, rate up to 8.7 better. Sometimes beware those long doubles as not so cogent.
>RF: AACDDES B3 .ASCADED +74 141
#note 2:21 [18:33] RF: First saw SACCADED*, and am glad to have stuck it out to remember its common anagram.
>JJB: EGNRTWY A7 YEW +46 196
#note 1:10 [17:10] JJB: Can stay in the lead unless another bingo gets drawn from the bag.
>RF: ?DEIOTU O1 wIDEOUT. +77 218
#note 4:26 [14:07] RF: Took a while to deliberate between plays. WIDEOUTS, HIDEOUTS, IODURETS#, and I didn't consider SOLITUDE or SUITORED# (didn't know). TOlUIDE(S) actually wins a 4-play sim to 1000 spins. I was just very leery of the possible Z and X bombs that would negate this play. Even harder when now we have to consider ZE# at every turn.
>JJB: AFGHNRT N2 HAFT +40 236
#note 1:24 [15:46] RF: And then there's the matter of simple counters such as this.
>RF: AABBILT M1 TAB +28 246
#note 1:04 [13:03] RF: N8 (A)BBATIAL 86! This is 3rd behind BALTI at C9. JJB: This pelican opportunity was worth another 55.9.
>JJB: GIINNOR 11F IRONING +75 311
>JJB: GIINNOR -- -75 236
#note 0:39 [15:07] JJB: Proining# was indeed suspected and ranks 68.6 better, but a little certainty in the wrong place will wreak wonders. Challenging took 6 seconds. Lungi was the misremembered hook.
>RF: ABIIILT C9 BIALI +34 280
#note 1:10 [11:53] RF: Best.
>JJB: GIINNOR 4A R.NI +18 254
#note 3:15 [11:52] RF: Figured if he didn't see (P)ROINING#, no need to block. Maybe that was a bit risky, though. JJB: This time the hit was worth 40.7. Naoi in the same place would've saved about 7 points of face.
>RF: DEINOST 11F STONIED +75 355
#note 0:44 [11:09]
>JJB: AGINNOY H10 N.YING +42 296
>JJB: AILNORS (challenge) +5 301
#note 0:59 [10:53] RF: Wasn't sure it's a verb. It is. JJB: It's good to study the 3s with the definitions, which makes this worth more than agony/astonied 36 (otherwise 2.5 diff).
>RF: AEMOOTX 10H .OX +53 408
#note 1:08 [10:01]
>JJB: AILNORS E10 OAR +28 329
#note 7:30 [3:23] JJB: JJB wants the unabridged word orignals* but correctly doubts it. RF later teaches JJB rangolis# 60, worth 12.5 more.
>RF: AEFJMOT 1K JO. +11 419
#note 7:28 [2:33] RF: Sacrificed points to conserve spread. PORNIES(T), for one, is in the pool. Champ doesn't find it, but it sims okay. Champ likes FE I13 20 better. JJB: Given no other 8s to the T, but plenty of 7s, oft 10, jeel# 12, and jot 11 are the best blocks there. But that does nothing about resoling, sperling#, reposing, etc.; oft d12 23 allows only the weaker pinglers#, but jane 14f 27 shuts down everything there without horrid leave. Jot 19.5, jane 23.9, faa 36.7.
>JJB: ILNPRSZ 13G Z.P +27 356
#note 3:06 [0:17] JJB: Missed riz# 39 (15.2 diff).
>RF: AEEFMOT D12 OFT +23 442
#note ~1:18 [~1:15] RF: Just anything to block the Q play. Champ says B13 ME. Sets up the F, I guess, with FATE next. JJB: Me 12 (qin# 14, fate 40, rins 13, zo# 13+2 for net of 40) is an impressive use of the case A. But RF's choice of oft is actually 5 better with best play, as shown below. Toneme 31 and faa 29 go out for the most but also allow much more Q damage, so RF may have made the best play after all.
>JJB: ILNQRS F1 QI. +14 370
#note 0:35 [-0:18] JJB: When there is only one Q play and it's blockable, it shouldn't run one over the clock.
>RF: AEEM 14F MA.E +27 469
#note ~0:30 [~0:45] RF: He can't go out yet, so no reason for me to. Right idea, but 14G A(N)E is what Champ says. JJB: Actually, there may be a reason. Enema 28+8 will net 36; mane 27, rins 13, me 8+2 nets only 24; ane 18, rins 13, me 18+2 nets only 25.
>JJB: LNRS 13G ...S +15 385
#note 0:36 [-0:54] JJB: Rins 13 is a net of 2 better.
>RF: E 9F .E +8 477
#note ~0:29 [0:16]
>RF: (LNR) +6 483
>JJB: LNR (time) -10 375
#note JJB: In the end JJB's omissions of proining# and rangolis# cost a lot more than RF's of abbatial and eugarie#. The game is quite fruitful for helping vocabulary and endgame study. Points improvable based on tiles played: JJB 2, RF 12. Points improvable based on values: RF 123.1, JJB 157.7.
