>Froilan_Mendoza: DFFO 8G DOFF +22 22
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEHITUW 9C WHITE +20 20
#note This move was quite sucky and is where I should have lost the game right on the spot. 7F TAWIE was missed, scores 5 more, and at least retains my H as an emergency option to score again next turn. You'll see what transpires next and why this was the worst move of the tournament right there.
>Froilan_Mendoza: AEEPPTT E4 APPET.TE +98 120
#note Very nice find by Froilan here, but how much is he scoring if I don't give him this floater? Reason #1 why WHITE was a horrible play.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AABNUUV D1 BUNA +22 42
#note I hated to do this over D3 VAU, but I'm already in a position to have to bingo twice to get myself back in this one.
>Froilan_Mendoza: ADEENRS C6 ANS.ERED +76 196
#note While he had bingoes in several spots this time, this is still reason #2 why WHITE was a horrible play.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AIIUVWX 8A XI. +30 72
#note Yea, this is not going well. Probably 12A VIEW is a better play at this score. This doesn't give me enough volatility compared to VIEW and also gets more clunkers off my rack. #findingmedium
>Froilan_Mendoza: DMNO 2B MO.ND +24 220
>Samuel_Kaplan: AIILUVW D12 WAIL +29 101
#note Maybe 12A VI(E)W if I was ahead, but not here.
>Froilan_Mendoza: AIJ 15A JAI. +33 253
>Samuel_Kaplan: EIMTUVY B4 IVY +30 131
#note Purposely chosen over 1F IVY since I not only take out an easy scoring spot Froilan can use, but I also leave Row 1 open for big scores. Froilan using Row 1 still gives up bingo lines, which I sorely need at my large deficit.
>Froilan_Mendoza: ACGLO G8 ..CALOG +12 265
#note Looks like he was trying to block JAIL extensions. The only ones I saw that were extensions involved a B, which there's only one remaining, and also JAILHOUSE(S) with the one H left.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?EEMRTU 1F EMbRUTE +80 211
#note Good. This is best.
>Froilan_Mendoza: ELLS 15G SELL +24 289
>Samuel_Kaplan: ABIORSV B13 OV. +16 227
#note This and B10 BO colead the sim. I still have to bingo a 2nd time to have any chance.
>Froilan_Mendoza: ACEERRS K9 CAREERS +73 362
#note K1 (T)ERRACES scores 9 more for him.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?ABIRSZ J10 ZA +64 291
#note Even if bingoes such as BRAZILS or ARABIZES were available, I'm still doing this at this score.
>Froilan_Mendoza: INNU H5 UNI.N +17 379
#note Nice block.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?BINORS 4H BROmINS +83 374
#note I mean drawing Z? after OVA was insane. I honestly have no idea how I just got back in this game. If it wasn't for UNION, I would have done M1 SORBINg instead.
>Froilan_Mendoza: OORT 2J TORO +14 393
>Samuel_Kaplan: GHIIOTY L10 GOTH +41 415
>Froilan_Mendoza: AEEGKQU N4 .UQ +32 425
>Samuel_Kaplan: DIIY I12 IDY. +10 425
#note I only have 1 win in this position that I missed- 6E (P)YI(N). It saves O6 ID which Froilan cannot block- his best block of that play is 5M A(U)K which gives me O5 KID to go out! This was misscored as 11. #endgamelarge
>Froilan_Mendoza: AEEGK 1A KA +22 447
#note 10B K(E)E(E)T scores 1 more for him but this gets it done. I cannot outrun that now.
>Samuel_Kaplan: I 6N .I +11 436
#note I come all the way back in yet another game only to blow it on one move. But the fact is, WHITE was a much worse play than IDYL was. In most cases, I should have been buried after ANSWERED came down. It was winnable after all. Great game Froilan! Final score was recorded as 447-445. 4-2 +316.
