>Christopher_Sykes: HU 8H UH +10 10
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACEITXY I6 AC.Y +19 19
#note I had a Z setup against Chris in the main event and I had this great X setup against him in the Early Bird. UH suggests he may be close to a bingo. I take away almost all of his good bingo lines plus set up my X. Even if Chris takes my setup, he should give back a good X play. 7G AXE for 27 and ACHY flip and flop near the top although I would take my play any time. I'm making progress in finding these cool out of the box plays.
>Christopher_Sykes: ?AEGNRS G5 GARdENS +64 74
#note ACHY really cut down on Chris' scoring. I love it!
>Jonathan_Lindh: EIIJRTX J4 TIX +51 70
#note Best.
>Christopher_Sykes: AOPTZ F2 TOPAZ +72 146
#note Very tilt-inducing much like Barry playing TRENDING for 61 through the E I floated to open up the board.
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEIJNRT 4H JI.TER +42 112
#note I had a suspicion my rack was good enough to just fish the J with 5E JAG for 22, and I was right. Quackle has my play about #2 or #3, although when I asked Chris about this position after the game, he liked scoring with JITTER.
>Christopher_Sykes: ABNO H1 BAN.O +46 192
#note Another tilt inducing play.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DEINNOP H11 OPINE +32 144
#note Best.
>Christopher_Sykes: OUVW M3 V.OUW +30 222
>Jonathan_Lindh: DDILNSV 6L L.V +14 158
#note If Chris does not have an S, this will be very hard for him to block. DDINS pairs nicely with the LUVS setup and the floating E on the board. Like this play.
>Christopher_Sykes: EHS O6 SHE +25 247
#note Annoying.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DDGINOS 14H .ODDINGS +80 238
>Jonathan_Lindh: DDGINOS -- -80 158
#note SODDING got blocked NODDINGS is #. I may have had to try this. Things are already looking very bad.
>Christopher_Sykes: AQT G13 QAT +47 294
>Jonathan_Lindh: DDGINOS 9F D. +3 161
>Christopher_Sykes: BIN 11E BI..N +14 308
>Jonathan_Lindh: DGINOSS N8 DOSINGS +75 236
#note It's just DOSSING.
>Christopher_Sykes: EK 12L KE. +14 322
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAAERRT 3L A.A +8 244
#note Unsure of my rack.
>Christopher_Sykes: GM 11M M.G +10 332
>Jonathan_Lindh: AELMRRT 12A ARMLET +24 268
#note I was very close to 9 letter METER words through the TE. I have to make something happen right? ARMLET sims best.
>Christopher_Sykes: ?DELRTU A8 ULTR.rED +122 454
#note Very nice! Only triple triple. This would not be the only time somebody triple tripled on me in Albany.
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEFFORU C10 FE.UR +20 288
>Christopher_Sykes: EIIILNR 2C INI.I.LER +61 515
#note Almost nobody would have found this at this score. Probably the best 9 letter bingo anybody has ever played against me. Well done Chris!
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEFIOO 1A FOO +20 308
#note Mixed up the order of my plays. D2 NIECE for 14 and then FOO.
>Christopher_Sykes: ADEOWY 1J YOWE +21 536
#note D7 ODEA for 12 blocking my out.
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEI D2 .IECE +14 322
#note Best.
>Jonathan_Lindh: (AD) +6 328
#note Final score recorded as 529-328. Apparently, we underscored YOWE by 7 points and none of us caught it. I was out of time and trying to avoid a time penalty so I wasn't concerned with recounting his plays.
