>Dave: BCGHNRU 8H BUNCH +32 32
#note BRUGH is also a good option, but I like my move, which angles for either the BUNCHIER or BUNCHING extension.
>Joel_Wapnick: DFIOY K8 .ODIFY +30 30
>Dave: EEGIRUX 8H .....IER +45 77
#note Much better than XU because I set up a second spot for the X.

#note At this point I felt like I had been doing everything I could with my racks but was still falling hopelessly behind. Now I had a rack I couldn't score with... w-w-wait a minute!

#note This move sent a strong signal to me. He must have something close to a bingo rack, probably with the blank. Furthermore, he doesn't have the Z, as otherwise he surely would have played it at 3C. So I made a play which scored well and set up nice spot for the Z, hoping to draw it.
>Dave: ELLOPRT C1 POLL +23 344
#note And my draw of IOSZ left me feeling confident about my chances, until...
>Joel_Wapnick: ?EEENST O8 .ESENTEd +81 431
#note "I didn't like that," I said. Joel laughed.

#note Oh well. It was a good game.
