#note Because I'm the only one with 5 wins, by taking this game I will guarantee myself the tournament win. ANOR is a decent leave for the board because I have the ABA hook and the APE/OPE hooks. MAP doesn't sim too far back of more aggresive options like J8 (T)AP setting up my A and 7F/9F PA setting up my O. For the same reason I would not be a fan of TAP because that takes too many unseen hooks, I can say the same thing about either placement of PA. Maybe J6 PO(T)MAN is probably the play to keep a slightly better leave and not give back hooks to Mark. #findingsmall
>Mark_Miller: ERR 9J ERR +5 17
>Samuel_Kaplan: AJNORSW 10H JOW +35 52
#note Looks good.
>Mark_Miller: AENRSTV M3 TAVERNS +79 96
>Samuel_Kaplan: ACNRSUU F5 CU. +9 61
#note It's a cute S setup, but 6F UNAU is clearly the play which was missed. #visionlarge
>Mark_Miller: INO 5E I.ON +12 108
>Samuel_Kaplan: AENNRSU H10 .UN +11 72
>Mark_Miller: AGLLO 12C GALLO. +14 122
>Samuel_Kaplan: ADDENRS 3F DARNDES. +62 134
#note Some bra sizes are clunkier to draw than others. Double D isn't usually one of them. It didn't kill this rack if you know what I mean. DANDERS does play at 9A which I passed up. DANDERS sims a little behind E8 DAND(L)ERS because that's 8 more. If I needed spread, I might have done DAND(L)ERS. But I just need to win, and it's important that I play conservatively here.
>Mark_Miller: FTTU 4B TUFT +16 138
>Samuel_Kaplan: BHIQTXY 3A TIX +40 174
#note Oh my god...C3 Q(U)BIT is absolutely brilliant setting up my X! Mark would never have suspected that setup. #foresightlarge
>Mark_Miller: ENOVY 9C ENVOY +28 166
>Samuel_Kaplan: BDHPQRY 4L H.RP +34 208
#note B2 P(IT)HY is definitely better because it sets up my B nicely and it's 8 more. I gotta be able to see these 2 turn setups sometimes.
>Mark_Miller: ILOT O4 .ILOT +21 187
>Samuel_Kaplan: BDNOQSY 8A BOY +29 237
#note I looked for 3 letter extensions to PILOT and none exist. The longest ones are AUTOPILOT and GYROPILOT. No GIROPILOT* despite GIRO being a word (why tho?!). Close with 8A SYBO.
>Mark_Miller: AAAEIIO - +0 187
#note Not actual rack. Mark exchanged 7 tiles here.
>Samuel_Kaplan: DDIINQS 13B QI +28 265
#note About time. I should have gotten the Q off my rack 3 turns ago. But hopefully Mark didn't draw an I after his exchange 7.
>Mark_Miller: EEW 10B EWE +19 206
>Samuel_Kaplan: DDIIMNS 14A MIND +40 305
#note Not bad, but 14A MISDID is fine if it means outrunning better, which I can safely do at this score. I would have done MISDID if I had seen that. #findingmedium
>Mark_Miller: AAEGZ 15D AGAZE +52 258
#note I think Mark opened up our most recent matchup with this word! That's pretty funny.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?DEIISS L7 aI.SIDES +72 377
#note This is the best bingo and will pretty much get the job done given the nature of this board. Yes!
>Mark_Miller: GOO 2D GOO +11 269
>Samuel_Kaplan: AACEIKU 1F CUKE +36 413
#note He made a nice play to try to bingo out. After this, the only bingo I saw for him was 14I FREE(S)IAs with an H draw. But this will be enough to win the tournament since spread meant nothing for me, although it was different for Mark.
>Mark_Miller: ?AEEHIR K11 HARE +31 300
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAFI J13 IF +30 443
#note Yep
>Mark_Miller: ?EI 15A Is +26 326
#note Or Es in the same spot.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AA 2J AA +11 454
#note 2A for 1 more. Another big win here means another tournament win! Next goal is to break 1800.
>Samuel_Kaplan: (E) +2 456
