#player2 Orry_Swift Orry Swift
>Jonathan_Lindh: ADEHIIR 8D HAIRED +28 28
#note 2023 Word Cup Main Event Round 29. First repeat of the tournament. I debated hard between HAIRED and exchanging an I. The Championship Player narrowly prefers HAIRED.
>Orry_Swift: EEZ 9C ZEE +29 29
>Jonathan_Lindh: IIMNNOR D8 ..MIN +20 48
#note Best.
>Orry_Swift: CENQU 11B QU.NCE +34 63
>Jonathan_Lindh: INNNORU B11 .UIN +26 74
#note Very close to UNIRONED. QUIN or QUOIN seem ok.
>Orry_Swift: AGLOSTV H2 VOLTAG.S +63 126
#note None of us saw G7 TRAVELOGS for 66 post-mortem although the Championship Player slightly prefers VOLTAGES.
>Jonathan_Lindh: MNNOPRR A13 MON +21 95
>Orry_Swift: LOOW I3 WOOL +26 152
>Jonathan_Lindh: IJNPRRR -IJNPRR +0 95
#note This rack is not going anywhere.
>Orry_Swift: ?ACISUW H11 SWAIl +51 203
#note Actual rack. The Championship Player likes H9 SAW for 11 the best but that sacrifices too many points. SWAIL seems perfectly fine to me and it did to Orry too.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DEFIIRV 12H .IVED +24 119
>Orry_Swift: CINOSTU K6 COUNTI.S +70 273
#note If I left this spot alone, Orry would have had CAUTIONS. It also seems post-mortem we both missed the fact Orry had 15H LINOCUTS for 86 although COUNTIES is quite a bit more defensive. This game was not winnable.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DEFIORR 8K .REDO +21 140
>Orry_Swift: EPT 7M PET +20 293
>Jonathan_Lindh: FIRTUYY 4G F..URY +24 164
#note Best.
>Orry_Swift: AEEIKST 15H .EAKIEST +86 379
#note Best.
>Jonathan_Lindh: EFIORTX N2 REFIX.. +68 232
#note I saved some dignity by finding this amazing find. Quackle likes this the best.
>Orry_Swift: AJR M1 JAR +26 405
#note Good block by Orry. He recognized there was still an unseen P which could be used to score a ton with PREFIXED.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AADGOPT N10 PAGOD. +32 264
#note Best. Indeed, I drew that unseen P. I probably would have played something like DOPA/PREFIXED.
>Orry_Swift: BOT C13 BOT +27 432
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAEEGIT O1 GETA +30 294
#note GETA seems fine.
>Orry_Swift: ?ABH 14F BA.tH +37 469
#note This was a nice play to block my AIRY spot.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEIRY 15C .REY +15 309
#note This endgame wasn't so good. 3F YEOW for 17 starts my endgame.
>Orry_Swift: LLN J3 L.N +12 481
#note This is why YEOW is best.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AI O11 AI +9 318
#note J9 AI is 10 points.
>Jonathan_Lindh: (L) +2 320
#note Final score recorded as 481-318. I underscored HAIRED by 2 points.I could have played the endgame better but other than that, this game was almost perfect.
