>skaplan31: ADEEGGO 8D GAGED +20 20
#note Rd 3 Philly virtual 5-16-2021. Missed DEGAGE which is better for turnover. Maybe GEODE should have been it if I'm gonna miss DEGAGE. This just makes it easy for him to parallel. #findinglarge
>DaBag: AHLNOSV G5 HOV.L +16 16
#note I do like HALVA as well because it's 6 more, but I like that this play makes it difficult to block his S hooks as he did set up 2 in 1 move. If anything, I somewhat predicted that because he just doesn't usually play this open.
>skaplan31: AEGNOOY H1 GOONEY +43 63
#note Best play.
>DaBag: AADILNS 7C DAL +11 27
#note 5C NAILHEADS would have been a very nice find here for 102.
>skaplan31: ?ALSUUW 6B LAW +18 81
#note I do see why Q likes 10C WAULS for 22 better than my play. While I did see that play, I did keep in mind that Mitchell was probably keeping an S after HOVEL. Despite that, I decided to not play this turn scared thinking that I probably had the advantage with the blank, even with the undesirable UU combo. Worst case, if I don't hit Column A, I can always hit the HOVELS hook or use the floaters in GOONEY.
>DaBag: AEINRST A4 NASTIER +81 108
#note Would you look at that? I wasn't so fortunate, and the 7s that I did have all got blocked.
>skaplan31: ?ABRSUU 6F B..AR +18 99
#note I did see ARBUtUS, AUBURnS, and BUReAUS in this rack. No 8s exist here. This move is definitely unconventional, but I'm not that far behind. I can wait this out and continue to be aggressive which I'm not afraid to do here despite again keeping the clunky UU combo. Pretty much any play that Quackle generates scores the same while burning the S. This is not the time for that in my opinion.
>DaBag: AEHIOOZ B2 ZOO +26 134
>skaplan31: ?DLNSUU 2G N.DULoUS +70 169
#note Not sure why I didn't play this at 3G. If Mitchell didn't play ZOO, a better bingo would have played- 1A mUDSLUN(G) which I did not know.
>DaBag: AAEHIUX C2 AX +47 181
#note Lol
>skaplan31: BEIKMTU 1M MIB +27 196
#note L1 K(o)MBU is much better than this. That's a miss and this is a distant 2nd.
>DaBag: ACEHIRU L2 .UCH +16 197
>skaplan31: EIKRTUW 5K W.IR +20 216
#note I did see WHIT in this spot, but this is much less likely to get hooked. Enough with the UW combos this game!
>DaBag: AEINOQR O5 RANI +23 220
#note Hm... I'm not always keeping an R after WHIR. If he's gonna block that, IRONE is better as he does save J1 QUA for next turn.
>skaplan31: AEKNRTU N4 A.K +33 249
#note Easily best.
>DaBag: AEEFIOQ N8 QI +22 242
>skaplan31: EENNRTU 1C RUN +14 263
#note Definitely not doing B9 RETUNE, NEUTER, or TENURE here. Mitchell looked like he's setting up something- he played off 4 bingo prone tiles before QI. It could be anything tbh.
>DaBag: AEEFOOR 9G .OOFA +12 254
#note Perhaps QI was just a sure way of dumping the Q and he's got more vowels and a more random rack. Whew.
>skaplan31: ?EEINST 10H ThEINES +88 351
#note YES! Even with an easy rack, I was definitely happy to find this underlap that scored nicely. EmETINS also plays in this spot for 88. #visionspoton
>DaBag: EEFIRTY 9C FEY +27 281
#note I like B9 FERITY here for openness here, but this is also fine with many Es left in the hopes of hitting Row 11 bingoes.
>skaplan31: EJPPSTV -JPPTV +0 351
#note If I'm gonna exchange, maybe just -JPV is better normally, although there were still 3 more Ts left.
>DaBag: EEIORTT 4J TE. +10 291
>skaplan31: CEEEIIS -EEI +0 351
#note Gotta try to hit Row 11 bingoes myself now that I have ES on my rack...
>DaBag: EIJMORT 11K MET +24 315
#note This move and his next move both handed me additional spread points. Watch this all unfold.
>skaplan31: CEEIPSV 11E VICES +27 378
#note L10 NEVE would have been fine as well, although I do stop him from fishing for things like 11B DIOPTRE. If I draw both the R and T out of the bag, he's J-stuck.
>DaBag: EIIJOPR D1 .PO +29 344
#note And shockingly enough, he did miss I5 RAJ which is literally his only J play. Now the endgame becomes a hell of a lot easier for me.
>skaplan31: DEEPTT 7I TE +8 386
#note Definitely not doing M9 PETTED when I can J-stick him!
>DaBag: EIIJR 5G ..R +9 353
#note 10C ER is 7 more, he probably missed my out play.
>skaplan31: DEPT M9 P..TED +31 417
#note What a reasonably wild game. Had a few interesting calls early on, and then I didn't expect to be able to J-stick him.
