>Mutinda: AAHLLOT H4 HALLO +24 24
#note Hallo, welcome to the coverage of this game.
>Tarus: ?CIQRVW -QWCIV +0 0
>Mutinda: ABFILTU G3 FUB +21 45
>Tarus: ?ENORST 5G ..RiTONES +70 70
#note Tarus is taking his time here, will he find the best move?
It is almost certiain that he will bingo.
Best move uses the O at the centre towards a triple.
He places BARITONES on the board, BUHRSTONE scores better for a player who only studies 9 letter words.
>Mutinda: AEIILMT K1 LIMI.ATE +60 105
>Mutinda: AEIILMT -- -60 45
#note There is a bingo through the T, do you know it, consult your checker.
Mutinda first places SIMILATE* before settling with LIMITATE* as the phony of choice. Tarus quickly challenges it off.
>Tarus: EEEOORY O2 EYE.ORE +33 103
>Tarus: ADEIOOO (challenge) +5 108
#note best move!
>Mutinda: AEIILMT K1 MILI.ATE +60 105
>Mutinda: ACHIOTU (challenge) +5 110
#note Finally the right word?
Plus five!
>Tarus: ADEIOOO 1H DOO. +21 129
#note Tarus going a little conservative
>Mutinda: ACHIOTU 6M OH. +29 139
#note Philip takes his time, critical move to stay and command the game.
I prefer L8 HUTIA 33
>Tarus: AAEIIOS I5 .AI +9 138
#note No critical moves, we can sip some coffee and watch with no hurry.
But Tarus takes it too far and plays the weakest move in a set of low scoring moves.
>Mutinda: ACIKQTU M2 QUI.. +28 167
>Tarus: AAEIOSW L7 AWA +21 159
>Mutinda: ACDIJKT J8 TAJ +32 199
#note Here is a small secret, HALLOA exists, now find the best move.
>Tarus: BEIIORS 2I OB. +23 182
>Mutinda: ACDIKTY M9 DICKY +39 238
#note DICKTY not a move that you would prefer. This is the top choice move.
>Tarus: EIIIRSU -IIU +0 182
#note TOp exchange, will it be enough to change the game?
>Mutinda: AEGSTVX 11K VA. +16 254
>Tarus: EINPRRS F2 RIP +20 202
>Mutinda: EGLNSTX 1C LENG +13 267
#note This HALLO word has so many hooks, learn them.
>Tarus: AEEENRS 12L E.E +18 220
#note best way to remain afloat
>Mutinda: IINRSTX 2B NIX +31 298
>Tarus: AENORSU 9B ARENOUS +68 288
>Mutinda: AGGIRST D4 RAGGI.ST +72 370
#note Philip holds then allows.
He has a chance to respond here, will he?
Reasonably better than B8 G(A)RAGIST 74
>Tarus: ?EIMNRW 4K .W. +22 310
#note If tarus doesn't find the bingo here, Philip could easily manage the board and take control, he does exactly that.
But this is strong balancing move nonetheless.
>Mutinda: DDESTVZ F8 T.ZED +35 405
#note Philip must have preferred TOZED over DOZED retaining the D for EKED if needed.
>Tarus: ?EIMNRT B8 M.RINaTE +72 382
#note TRAMLINE scores highest.
>Mutinda: DENPSUV 15A V.NDUES +39 444
#note A4 PENDU 45 scores much higher!
>Tarus: CF 5C C.F +16 398
#note Over and out!
>Tarus: (P) +6 404
