>skaplan31: ABIJLOO - +0 0
#note Rd 2 Philly virtual 9-9-2021. I'm 2nd.
>DaBag: CEERSTT 8G TERCETS +70 70
>skaplan31: ABIJLOO L4 JABO. +28 28
>DaBag: DGNRRSU K7 G.RUND +19 89
#note Not sure if Mitchell knew this one (I did), but 5H GURN(A)RDS does play for 70.
>skaplan31: ?EILOSW 13F OWLIESt +73 101
#note While I did not see 11D LEWIsSO(N), there's not a whole lot I can do to stop Mitchell from scoring a lot potentially. So I took the 3 extra points with this over WOoLIES.
>DaBag: ENORSVX 14D VOX +54 143
#note Yea, hard to not expect that sometimes.
>skaplan31: AEIIIOT 15E IOTA +24 125
#note Definitely didn't care for M3 IOTA at this score. I did see H12 ILIA, but this scoring spot was just too likely to get eaten up. There's only 3 hooks in the pool to ILIA that remain.
>DaBag: EMNOORS J10 MO +22 165
#note 10E ENORMO(U)S would have put me in a world of hurt.
>skaplan31: EEIIRUY -EIIUY +0 125
#note I do like L12 E(t)UI a little better than this, but my win chances still aren't great at this point. #findingsmall
>DaBag: EHINORS 9C INSHORE +71 236
#note It wouldn't have mattered apparently.
>skaplan31: CEEOPRR M3 CORER. +38 163
#note I'm hoping for a reparallel on Column N that will allow me a nice Column O bingo, which is the only way I'm getting myself back in this one. Luckily for me, Mitchell did not spot the SCORERES hook.
>DaBag: AEIIINT D8 I.IA +5 241
>skaplan31: AAENNPW N4 WEN +31 194
#note I at least give myself the best win % after this move, but AANP isn't very helpful for hitting Row 11 bingoes.
>DaBag: EEEINPT O6 TEE +15 256
>skaplan31: AAAANPS E5 PAAN. +16 210
#note Definitely not doing C7 PAISANA when I now have the SCORERS hook. However, L12 A(t)AP is 6 more and doesn't allow Mitchell to pull ahead.
>DaBag: EILNNPU O2 PUL +21 277
#note Interesting...
>skaplan31: AAALSTU 12K .UAL +12 222
>DaBag: EHINNRV F6 HI +28 305
>skaplan31: AAGILST 8A AGA.. +20 242
#note 10F AGA is the play if I'm behind to block potential Column H 9s, but this is easily the play while ahead.
>DaBag: EFMNNRV A7 V.NNER +10 315
#note I don't blame him for this even though I don't care for his paranoia.
>skaplan31: EILQSTT 11C Q.T +24 266
>DaBag: ?AFGIMY N10 FI.MY +42 357
#note Nice play here too.
>skaplan31: EILOSTZ 2G ZLOTIES +77 343
#note It's gonna be too little too late despite being reasonably likely to get this down.
>DaBag: ?ABDEFG H1 F.AB +36 393
>skaplan31: DDEIKUY 5I DEK... +22 365
#note He had many out plays, so I found a decent scoring play. I did block a better out play he had, I6 aG(RE)ED.
>DaBag: ?DEG B12 EDGe +12 405
#note However, I did not spot I5 DeG(RE)ED for him which would have been 8 more than B12 EDGe. L12 plays would have helped somewhat, but when Mitchell responds nicely on all sorts of occasions, it turns out to be somewhat moot. Frustrating to start 0-2 in only a 4 game tourney.
