>Mack: DDEHPST H8 DEPTH +30 30
>Max: AEU G8 EAU +14 14
>Mack: ADINRSX F6 NIX +23 53
#note SARDINED seemed too open, and the S is really strong with DEPTH. RADIX is also needlessly open.
>Max: ACEOSTT E2 COSTATE +84 98
>Mack: ADRSUVZ D8 VARUS +44 97
>Max: CLOO F10 COOL +25 123
>Mack: DGIIRSZ 4B ZIG. +28 125
#note Came close to playing GROSZ, but it gives back so many big plays with GROSZE/GROSZY and DII can go sour really quickly. Sim agrees convincingly with ZIGS.
>Max: ?AEIILR 12H .AIRLInE +72 195
>Mack: DIIRRSV B2 VI.IR +38 163
>Max: DERW O11 R.WED +27 222
>Mack: ADMORSY 14B DORMY +56 219
>Max: EJKO 15A JOKE +60 282
>Mack: ABDGHRS M8 HAGB.RDS +82 301
>Mack: ABDGHRS -- -82 219
#note Didn't like any of my valid options here, and quickly decided I was going to phony. Was between HAGBIRDS* and H(AN)DGRABS*, decided on HAGBIRDS as the BIRD words can be a bit confusing. Max was having none of it though, good challenge by him.
>Max: ?FIINTY M7 INFIn.TY +86 368
>Mack: ABDGHRS 8J BHA.GS +39 258
#note Gave serious thought to BHANG, but spread was still a consideration at this point in the tournament, and even if I hit something with BHANGS next turn it probably will still lose. I figured I was better off going for BHANGS immediately and trying to pull like QUADRATS or something from O1 next turn.
>Max: BMOT A5 TOMB +28 396
>Mack: DEORSTU O1 OUTDRES. +83 341
>Max: AIQ 4L QAI. +28 424
>Mack: EEGNNOU J8 .EGU.NE +16 357
#note Throwing in the towel here as bingos won't score enough to win. Champ says J6 UNBE wins like 3/1000 of the time, I'm failing to see how though.
