>Rafi: ADIJOOR 8G DOJO +24 24
#note JIAO maybe.
>Nigel: AHINORW 9H HOW +30 30
#note Nigel and I were playing $3 a game $0.03 a point, and it was currently 2-2 +197 in Nigel's favor. So I had to win by 97 to even the score.

>Nigel: CEELPST C7 C.PELETS +86 264
#note 3 in a row! How the hell am I going to win by 97 now?
>Rafi: DELLNOT D6 LO.ED +33 198
>Nigel: AEIOSTV 8L .OVE +24 288
#note Maybe AIVER or VOTER to be more defensive.
>Rafi: IIKLNTT A1 KITTLIN. +92 290
#note Back in the game!
>Nigel: AEIISTX D12 XI +38 326
#note Or D1 IXIA for turnover for the blanks.
>Rafi: ?EGMNPT 3G TEMPt.NG +82 372
>Nigel: AEHIIST H1 TH.I. +27 353
#note Nigel noticed the HEIR possibility right after he made his play, realizing he had the last T. HEIR actually sims best, but it's risky because it a terribly obvious setup. Next best is HIE in the same spot, because it keeps the T for bingo opportunities. I'd probably go with HIE, but HEIR is definitely an interesting idea.
>Rafi: ?ACFRSW 7J CR.W +30 402
#note Quackle isn't too excited about this play, but I thought it made sense to pass up parallel plays like WAR on column B. My thinking was that Nigel is likely going for a bingo, so I'll have FAS for 41 a decent amount of the time. Also, the only two tiles left to parallel EX are the L and the last S, and any LEX play will give me a 50+ point comeback with my F.
>Nigel: ABEGISU N1 BU.GIE +24 377
#note Surprised to find this is phony. The star play here is an easy-to-spot play with a trickier-to-spot setup: RAGE for 26 setting up SQUIB for 81 with a Q draw.
>Rafi: ?AAFNOS B10 FAS +41 443
>Nigel: AAAEMNS O1 AM +28 405
#note AME(B)A is the winner here.
>Rafi: ?AAFNOY B4 OAF +31 474
#note Quackle is afraid of equably/equable and wants me to burn spread... ummm no. Even if I saw that, Nigel's last play doesn't indicate a Q bingo fish.
>Nigel: AAEENQS 2D S.Q +32 437
>Rafi: ?ABNUYY F4 t.BY +44 518
>Nigel: AAEEELN J7 ...L +15 452
#note Time trouble for Nigel.
>Rafi: ANUY E11 AY +24 542
>Nigel: AAEEEN B1 AN +14 466
>Rafi: NU D2 .UN +12 554
#note Looks like I owe Nigel 3 cents!
>Rafi: (AEEE) +8 562
