>Dustin_Dean: ABEEINO -BEIO +0 0
#note Thanks to Dustin for providing his racks for this game. My guess is he didn't see BEANIE which is worth playing over exchanging.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?BMQVWX -BQVWX +0 0
#note This is the most amount of tiles 3 points or more that I have ever picked on an opening draw! Exchanging down to M?, X?, or just ? are all defendable. I liked keeping the M for scoring flexibility and I liked getting rid of the X just because I want to bingo asap.
>Dustin_Dean: AEJLNOU H4 JOULE +40 40
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?CEIIMT 5G C.MITIEs +72 72
#note I did see 9F MIsCITE which I passed up. However, I missed the anagram of COMITIEs- 5D sEMI(O)TIC is 94, but even better positionally is 5D EpIT(O)MIC. #findinglarge
>Dustin_Dean: AAFLNPZ 4H .ALAP +44 84
#note Nice play.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ACDERTW J2 WA.. +15 87
>Dustin_Dean: EFKNNTZ N2 ZEK. +32 116
>Samuel_Kaplan: CDEILRT 8E DER.LICT +62 149
#note Not surprising that the best non-bingo plays are 3I plays. But this is the only bingo.
>Dustin_Dean: AFN O1 FAN +31 147
>Samuel_Kaplan: EEIORSV E2 OVERSI.E +74 223
#note Yes!
>Dustin_Dean: GMNNOTT 4A MONT. +20 167
#note Looks good. GOTT(E)N is also a good option but if he draws an I he's in great shape. So I like this better.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?FHORTU B2 FR.TH +38 261
#note I wasn't sure if it was FUTHORc or FUTHORk. They're both good. But either way, FOURTHs is not hard to spot. This was just bad. Definitely would have done FUTHORk if I played this position optimally. #findingsad
>Dustin_Dean: EU A3 E.U +9 176
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?DNOOSU K8 .OfOUNDS +70 331
#note I must ask: how is it that I can find harder to spot bingoes but space out on an easy one occasionally? It's a good thing I continued looking after initially seeing J8 (I)DONeOUS. #visionmuchsolider
>Dustin_Dean: EEGINTY 7B YE +21 197
#note YEETING is a new word which plays at D9. I don't blame him for missing this one because I'm not going to find every new one I may have studied.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAILNTY F1 AY +26 357
#note A7 ANALITY
>Dustin_Dean: AEGIINT 2J .IG +7 204
>Samuel_Kaplan: ABILNRT 12G TRIB.NAL +72 429
#note Mhm
>Dustin_Dean: AEINRTV -V +0 204
#note I feel his pain. It's truly awful being tantalizingly close to bingoes.
>Samuel_Kaplan: GGHOSUW M11 W.UGH +24 453
#note Right idea to block the 3x3 after Dustin has been fishing all this time, but 15K SHOWS is fine for 21 more. Shouldn't concern myself with leave too much when I'm already winning this one. #strategylarge
>Dustin_Dean: AEINORT 15D NOTARIE. +77 281
#note And neither one of us was able to hit the DERELICTION extension all game! But this is clearly correct. It would be a DERELICTION of duty to not hit a bingo he's been fishing for.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AGIOQRS J7 Q. +11 464
#note Why not fish for another bingo and try racking up more spread?
>Dustin_Dean: DEEESVX O8 VEXES +60 341
#note Nice spread cutter.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AGIOORS 13B ARIOSO +17 481
#note He will bingo out 2/8 of the time if I don't make this play- with a B draw he has PANDIED and with a P draw he has BANDIED, which would hypothetically play in 2 spots (A7 and 13C).
>Dustin_Dean: ADDEINP 10A PANDIED +78 419
>Dustin_Dean: ADDEINP -- -78 341
#note The best play I saw for him was A7 PAINED for 41. The bingo itself is valid, but OVERSIDE only takes an S.
>Samuel_Kaplan: BG B12 B.G +12 493
#note All righty...one of those games where everything just came to me and was not winnable for him. He also lost 30 points because he went 2:08 overtime. Final score was recorded as 515-311. 3-1 +166.
>Samuel_Kaplan: (ADDEINP) +22 515
