#player2 Billy_Nakamura Billy Nakamura
>Jonathan_Lindh: CFGIISY 8G CIG +12 12
#note 2022 World Cup Main Event Round 2. I chose CIG to restrict Billy's options as much as possible while setting up my S. Quackle likes my play second behind ICY (second time I missed that word, first time was in the Early Bird).
>Billy_Nakamura: EINOUV G3 UNVOI.E +15 15
#note Scored as 14.
>Jonathan_Lindh: FIPSSUY J6 FUSSY +34 46
#note My play was a slight error. After the game, Billy pointed out H1 YUP for 28 to me. That looks best given the board dynamics where S's are very valuable.
>Billy_Nakamura: OOUZ K10 OUZO +31 46
>Jonathan_Lindh: BEIIPTV 12I BI.E +30 76
#note 12K ZIBET and K3 VIBE look a little better than this play. I wanted to kill Z overlaps.
>Billy_Nakamura: ADEFOPR 4B PROFA.ED +80 126
#note Great find by Billy.
>Jonathan_Lindh: IINPTTV H1 VIN. +23 99
#note 6D PIVOT for 18 is a little better than this.
>Billy_Nakamura: AGY 13G GAY +24 150
>Jonathan_Lindh: AHIIPTT B2 HA.PI +28 127
#note This play, E4 FAITH, B2 PIPIT, and 6C PITHOI are all potential options.
>Billy_Nakamura: EMM A1 MEM +30 180
#note Underscored by 1. Billy's score is 178 but should be 180.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AGIIJTT A6 AJI +32 159
#note Seems reasonable to open the bottom left after Billy partially closed it with GAY.
>Billy_Nakamura: DENR 10D NERD +21 201
>Jonathan_Lindh: DGITTTU C3 G.ID +32 191
#note Ugly draw but I am able to score with it. Either GRID or GRIT in this spot seem fine.
>Billy_Nakamura: KX E9 K.X +28 229
>Jonathan_Lindh: ABITTTU E2 TU.T +14 205
#note This is fine.
>Billy_Nakamura: LW H13 .WL +18 247
>Jonathan_Lindh: ABLOOTT D10 .OTAL +19 224
#note Right idea, but this needs to be D8 TONAL.
>Billy_Nakamura: CST 6E SC.T +20 267
>Jonathan_Lindh: BEEINOT C11 BINE +32 256
#note Homeless EBONITE. Underlapping NOTAL seems just fine.
>Billy_Nakamura: AQT K5 QAT +31 298
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEIOORT 14G O.E +17 273
#note Not sure what to do here. This is ok.
>Billy_Nakamura: ?AELNRS L3 ALiNERS +83 381
#note Best play for Billy.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEIORRT 8L .OAR +12 285
#note Going for the blank and hoping to bingo out on Billy.
>Billy_Nakamura: ?ADEHNR O1 HARDENe. +89 470
#note 1H VERANDAH is 95 but everything is 100% to win.
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEEILRT N8 .TELIER +18 303
#note N2 LEET and LEER are 8 better. I wasn't calculating the endgame as closely as I should.
>Billy_Nakamura: OW M13 WO +22 492
#note Best play.
>Billy_Nakamura: (E) +2 494
#note Score recorded as 492-303. Score should have been 494-303 Billy. I was 0-2 -346 after this game and in last game. I would go on to win the main event. Never give up early.
