#player2 Winter Winter
>Glenn_Filzer: DEFIKN 8D KNIFED +38 38
#note Great. "Strongest" opponent in the field, and he has the strongest oppening play of all the others.
>Winter: GIIOTUX 7F XI +25 25
#note While my rack sucks.
>Glenn_Filzer: FM G6 M..F +16 54
>Winter: GIILOTU H3 IGLU +11 36
>Glenn_Filzer: BDERTTU 3F TR.BUTED +80 134
>Glenn_Filzer: BDERTTU -- -80 54
#note GODDAMN IT!!! Except Adam, none of my opponents could get anything going, while I had great racks. I suspect he has NO IDEA if this is good. He's just guessing. But that guess could cost me the game, depending on whether it's a lucky or unlucky guess.
>Winter: AAIOSTV F5 TA.. +20 56
#note Don't want to create any opening for him, since he's already shown he doesn't have a good play otherwise. Quack likes (L)AVA, which is stupid b/c it gives back (A)BUTTED or (A)BUTTER and allows him to turn over a lot of tiles. Shoulda played VIA, however.
>Glenn_Filzer: BDERTTU 5C BUT. +12 66
>Winter: AIIORSV 9C VIA +18 74
>Glenn_Filzer: ELRT D8 ..LTER +20 86
>Winter: AGINORS 10G SOARING +73 147
>Glenn_Filzer: CI 11D .IC +10 96
>Winter: CDEEOTT C11 ODE +21 168
>Glenn_Filzer: AM 4D MA +18 114
>Winter: BCENOTT K5 TONET.C +36 204
>Glenn_Filzer: J 6J J. +25 139
>Winter: ABEHLOU L6 BAH +35 239
#note Dang, HABU. Expensive mistake given that one additional non-vowel could have made a huge difference.
>Glenn_Filzer: ADEINRS 14D SANDIER +73 212
>Winter: EILNOUU M10 .LUON +12 251
#note Yeah, another consonant here might have made a huge diff.
>Glenn_Filzer: EV H13 V.E +18 230
>Winter: EEINUY 13G I.Y +27 278
>Glenn_Filzer: ?AERSY M2 gREASY +47 277
#note Oh boy.
>Winter: ?EEENRU 3C NEE +14 292
>Glenn_Filzer: AZ 6B ZA +35 312
#note Crap.
>Winter: ?EIOORU 3G O. +3 295
#note Given the tile pool, I don't see how I can't win if I Q stick him. There's a U at 12L, but I have to assume he did not have the Q when he played ZA, and he's only drawn 2 tiles.
>Glenn_Filzer: DEEW 2J WED.E +32 344
#note Now he's so far ahead a Q block seems critical.
>Winter: ?EHIORU N12 HIE +23 318
#note I don't understand Quackle here. Blocking the Q is obvious, especially after Glenn looked at his tiles and mumbled something to indicate he had drawn it. Other players might try to pretend, but I don't see Glenn pulling something like that.
>Glenn_Filzer: PW 4L P.W +16 360
>Winter: ?ALOORU K1 R. +2 320
#note I blew it big time here. I saw TROP and blocked, but I didn't see STROP. I should have played (WEDGE)R*, even though I suspected it was no good.
>Glenn_Filzer: GOPQRST O4 STROP +34 394
>Winter: ?ALOOU C5 ..L +6 326
>Glenn_Filzer: GQ E14 .G +3 397
