>Sue_McQuade: EINP 8G PINE +12 12
#note Whangarei Round 26
>Chris_Tallman: ABDIIVZ 7H BIZ +33 33
#note I missed VIZIED (39), and didn't like that this play gave up an easy scoring spot with BIZE + a PINE hook to the double - but still decided to score instead of holding the Z with a play like DIVI, with my philosophy of leaning towards scoring when I have a rating mismatch.
>Sue_McQuade: EFLT 9J LEFT +20 32
>Chris_Tallman: ADEISUV K4 UVAE +29 62
#note UVA (20) to keep the E with DIS is simming closely with my play, but I preferred again to score more and use up the BIZE hook.
>Sue_McQuade: BM 4J B.M +14 46
>Chris_Tallman: ADIINSS M6 DIS.AINS +70 132
>Chris_Tallman: EHLMOOW (challenge) +5 137
>Sue_McQuade: ET 8M .ET +9 55
#note Sue exposes her 2 tile draw after this play and I see another ET - ouch.
>Chris_Tallman: EHLMOOW N10 WOO +31 168
#note Holding HELM for a big score with the NOH hook next turn if Sue doesn't block, and I figure she has one pointers after SET and seeing her replenishment draw.
>Sue_McQuade: AERT O12 TEAR +19 74
#note Sue comments that she should exchange but then plays this.
>Chris_Tallman: ?AEHKLM L12 KAM +36 204
#note I wasn't sure if she'd know KAME as she commented after UVAE that she didn't know BIZE.
>Sue_McQuade: EEEEE -5 +0 74
>Chris_Tallman: ?ACEHLO 15F CHOrALE +97 301
#note BACHELOR and CHELATOR are a cool 100. I noted the lack of a challenge here.
>Sue_McQuade: AF 14H FA +11 85
>Sue_McQuade: AF -- -11 74
>Chris_Tallman: AJ 14J JA. +55 356
#note Partial rack.
>Sue_McQuade: DEF 9F FED +19 93
>Chris_Tallman: ?DELOQU 10A QUOLlED +83 439
#note I was pretty sure this was phony, but after Sue didn't chalenge CHORALE, I figured she'd given up - she commented that she 'wasn't challenging it' as I drew new tiles.
>Sue_McQuade: EE -2 +0 93
>Chris_Tallman: EEGNX C8 EX.GEN +44 483
#note Partial rack.
>Sue_McQuade: GLN 8A GL.N +18 111
>Chris_Tallman: GOW D12 WOG +26 509
#note Partial rack, I do remember I had the S for WOGS though.
>Sue_McQuade: EHNS 15A HENS +33 144
>Chris_Tallman: ACDORSU 3D CRUSADO +67 576
#note It was after this that I started to wonder if I could get my first ever 700 game.
>Sue_McQuade: ITU A10 .UIT +14 158
#note Sue said 'I might as well do this' - but it was in fun and I appreciate her being a good sport throughout this game.
>Chris_Tallman: AIIOOPR D1 PI.O +22 598
#note I knew that I couldn't hit 700 without bingoing again, and figured this phoney scored enough and kept well enough and kept it open enough where maybe I could get there.
>Sue_McQuade: ANY 2H NAY +35 193
>Chris_Tallman: AIORRVY 1G RAY +34 632
#note No 700 for me, still a personal tournament game record in both points and spread.
>Sue_McQuade: EIIRRTT 1A TRI.E +21 214
>Chris_Tallman: IORV 11F RIVO +20 652
#note I was underscored by 2 and Sue by 12 - the final score should have been 658-214 with a spread of 444.
>Chris_Tallman: (IRT) +6 658
