#player1 BL Bob Lipton
#player2 JJB John J. Bulten
>BL: ABEELST 8D BELATES +74 74
>BL: IKN (challenge) +5 79
#note 0:47 [24:13] BL should be trustworthy by now, but JJB gives him another 5 anyway.
>JJB: CDEHOVW 7C VOWED +34 34
#note 0:19 [24:41] Best.
>BL: IKN 9G KIN +31 110
#note 2:01 [22:12]
>JJB: ACCDHOY E4 CHO..D +30 64
#note 2:42 [21:59] Daycoach* and cyca* are no good. JJB rules out the best play, hoc# 6d 39 (9.0 evaluation difference), in favor of a showoff.
>BL: DD 6D D.D +23 133
#note 1:02 [21:10]
>JJB: ?AACNRY B6 YA +26 90
#note 4:38 [17:21] JJB finds anarchy 76 later on (only 11.7 diff); carny 37 also rates slightly better.
>BL: BNOR 4A BRON. +24 157
#note 0:26 [20:44]
>JJB: ?AACINR J6 Ce.ARIAN +75 165
#note 0:46 [16:35] JJB draws into a rack he knows and neatly finds the best choice.
>BL: ILQU 12H QU.IL +48 205
#note 0:57 [19:47] BL has drawn QU and has another U in the wings.
>JJB: GIJMNOR 3C JO +38 203
#note 0:52 [15:43] Jimbo* is capitalized!
>BL: INU H12 .UIN +39 244
#note 1:14 [18:33]
>JJB: EGIMNPR 2D IMPREGN +73 276
#note 0:35 [15:08] JJB remembers the anagram of gripmen/perming but has to work out that gon# is correct and pon* is not in Collins. But he is only 32 ahead now!
>BL: ALVY H1 L.AVY +45 289
#note 1:57 [16:36] BL continues to make good work of his racks, retaking the lead while one bingo down.
>JJB: EEEIPUW 1A WEEP +45 321
#note 0:35 [14:33] JJB finds the best play on a bad rack.
>BL: TT 7I T.T +7 296
#note 1:16 [15:20] BL is close to a bingo.
>JJB: ?AEEIIU L12 .IEU +5 326
#note 1:41 [12:52] JJB finds the best play and is close to a bingo too but his advantage is tenuous.
>BL: OX 2A OX +41 337
#note 0:19 [15:01]
>JJB: ?AEEFIN G1 A.F +21 347
#note 2:42 [10:10] JJB fails to find faience/fiancee 79 with tete# (28.1 diff) and also eschews erf# 21 and fa m13 22 over arf 21.
>BL: EILORST M6 LOITERS +74 411
#note 0:39 [14:22]
>JJB: ?EEINRR N4 REINtER +73 420
#note 1:25 [8:45] Both players find the best bingo and are at 400+ with plenty to play. Who will get high loss?
>BL: SZ 8L Z..S +66 477
#note 0:45 [13:37] BL gets a bingo equivalent, a big rebound.
>JJB: AIMOOTU 8A OM +20 440
#note 7:08 [1:37] JJB still has winning chances with 3 in bag. He takes the obvious spot after thought, though it rates 3.0 behind ou# i14 6. But since A risks duplication and O is unnecessary, bao#/boa a4 win about 11% of simulations.
>BL: EFG 10F FEG +28 505
#note ~0:47 [~12:50] BL miscalculates and plays feg#/dake*/tig#, for 13 more points than feg#/erf#. JJB studied aked#/kade#/kaed# but does not even suspect that Dake* (an author) is not a word.
>JJB: AAEIOTU 15E TAE.IA +6 446
#note 1:03 [0:34] JJB has drawn into an impossible win, and BL into an unblockable out. JJB should make the highest net play, vitae/vaute# 4h 16, ghats 14+6, net of -4. Instead he takes turnover and increases opponent response with taenia 6, leading to ghast 28+4, net of -26.
>BL: AGHST O10 GHATS +14 519
#note ~0:12 [12:38] BL does not notice the new opening and sticks with plan A. Also, JJB's leave is so poor that gash 14c 31 and shag/impregns k2 29 score better than ghats 14.
>BL: (OU) +4 523
#note BL sails ahead on strong non-bingo plays and a well-timed phony. JJB made few errors, missing two bingos and 22 endgame points, but performs well enough to win the high-loss cash prize with 446. Points improvable based on tiles played: BL 14, JJB 23. Points improvable based on values: JJB 73.8.
