>Samuel_Kaplan: EGIMNSY 8H MINGY +30 30
#note GYM seems interesting too...I don't necessarily need spread, but this also scores 12 more immediately. GYM and MINGY are close. Despite EINS being a stronger leave than ES, due to how defensive GYM is, I actually bingo about 6-7% less often next turn keeping a better leave which is wild.
>Michael_Ecsedy: APZ 7G ZAP +38 38
>Samuel_Kaplan: CEILRSW 9E RELIC +26 56
#note I might set up my W nicely, but this spot could benefit him too. G5 WI(Z) seemed to easy to parallel than this did, and I might have thought about trying SCREWILY* if I needed spread. The W is a deceptively bad tile on this board in this position.
>Michael_Ecsedy: ABERV 8A BRAVE +44 82
>Samuel_Kaplan: BJNORSW L3 BROWN. +28 84
#note 10F WONS has to be worth it even though this sets up my J nicely. I could draw a J play at C7 as well as hit K5 JO, but WONS is too many more points. #strategylarge
>Michael_Ecsedy: AEU 10H EAU +19 101
>Samuel_Kaplan: DEGIJOS K5 JO +41 125
>Michael_Ecsedy: EEFLOTV B5 OVE.FELT +74 175
#note This is a major reason why I lost this game. I did not pull the trigger on this phony. Only LEFTOVER is valid through the R. ACK!! #knowledgesad
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?DEGHIS 10E EH +29 154
#note And I end up missing the hard to see 5A D(O)GESHIp. I spent a very long time looking for stuff and was mad that I potentially accepted a phony (which I did).
>Michael_Ecsedy: DENT E5 ENT...D +32 207
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?DGINST 6J G..D +13 167
#note 4C DaTINGS
>Michael_Ecsedy: ACFRT A1 CRAFT +44 251
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?IMNSTU 3L .UM +14 181
#note I am a lot better than this. This game was not well played by me by any means. Many missed bingoes here.
>Michael_Ecsedy: EGOQSTY - +0 251
#note Not actual rack. Michael exchanged 6 tiles here.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?IINSTT O3 SITTINg +79 260
#note Yayyyyy. Should have bingoed several turns ago! But no, I just had to be very bad and not play like an expert.
>Michael_Ecsedy: ?EEENTU 2A .ETUrNEE +68 319
#note Nice find by him here. Only bingo.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ADKNQRY 1H DRANK +54 314
#note I had the right idea by passing up D1 QUAKY as I will likely draw a play there next turn. 1H NARKY is a sligtly better version of this because I have a 9/29 chance of picking an A or an O for QUAD/QUOD as opposed to only a 6/26 chance of picking an A or an E for QUAY/QUEY. #visionsmall
>Michael_Ecsedy: AIILO A11 AIOLI +23 342
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEHIQUY D1 Q.AY +52 366
#note I hit it. But will I pull this one out?
>Michael_Ecsedy: OOP D10 POO +21 363
>Samuel_Kaplan: EHIIISU 2J HE +28 394
#note I did not even see 14A LIEU setting up my H! But it's kinda hard to say whether that would have mattered much given what I picked next.
>Michael_Ecsedy: ADEORS N9 ADORES +23 386
>Samuel_Kaplan: GIIISSU 13J GUIS. +12 406
#note I was correct that I have no wins here. That was such a garbage draw last turn.
>Michael_Ecsedy: ALOWX 3F AX +36 422
>Samuel_Kaplan: IIS 5D S.I +20 426
>Michael_Ecsedy: LOW M9 LOW +18 440
#note How did I make this game even remotely close with how bad I played? No idea. But OVERFELT* should have been challenged and I missed too many bingoes, so not sure I really deserved to win this one. Good game Michael. I will say kudos to him on getting OVERFELT* past me and I at least made it interesting with DRANK then QUAY. 6-3 +622. And my reward for losing this game: another battle with top-seeded Seth Lipkin.
>Michael_Ecsedy: (I) +2 442
