#note I saw 7H AZOTIC (T) for 32 points. In the moment, I had a flash of doubt whether it was good, so I played the safer AZO at B7 for 27 points. I'm not sure why that happened. Of note, 7H AZOTIC is 5 points better than 9H AZOTIC because of defensive considerations. Specifically, the 7H placement prevents overlapping plays with ZA on the 10 line.

#note Missed L2 PITTANCE for 80 points. There wasn't much about these letters that screamed bingo, and H1 PINCER for 39 points looked like a solid play, which made it hard for me to keep searching. This is where being studied up really helps.

#note This wsa a cool play. Eric held me briefly on KURUSH but let it go. I think it looked too bold for me to have made up, especially with the score relatively tight. That was a good determination by him.

>ken_Rubin: DINORTY N1 YIN +31 202
#note Missed 1E DRYPOINT for 65 points. I wasn't even really searching for a binog with these tiles. Like PITTANCE, I think this is one you need ot study to see it quickly. Anyway, it's clear I deserve to lose this game, missing two bingos like this.
ALso, N1 TINY (DOR) for 39 points is clearly better than N1 YIN for 31 points (DORT). I did not see the possibility.

#note E8 LOTO (EMOORS) for 13 points is a good option.
