>JD: DGORUYY 8G GUY +14 14
#note throwing the board wide open with a bad leave is usually not a great idea. GRODY is best statically but GUY jumps ahead on a sim.
>Dave_Wiegand: ABTU 9H TABU +15 15
>JD: DMNORRY 10I RYND +39 53
>Dave_Wiegand: ACKM 7F MACK +43 58
>JD: AIMNORT K5 ROMA..T +36 89
#note things seemed to go downhill from here
>Dave_Wiegand: ?ADEQRS E7 SQuARED +95 153
>JD: ADEIIJN 6J J.IN +27 116
#note I'm not sure if I would ever see INDIE at L8 over the board, but it makes a ton of sense - turning over 4 tiles to draw an R or a T, which there should be a 40-50% chance of doing.
>Dave_Wiegand: EEEGINZ 8K .ZINE +72 225
#note dave actually had ENERGIZE as a bingo, he told me after.
>JD: ADEGILP 13B GID.AP +28 144
#note I really liked this play given the game situation.
>Dave_Wiegand: PX 10D P.X +28 253
>JD: ACEILRU 14G AURICLE +65 209
>Dave_Wiegand: AEEGNST 15A NEGATES +82 335
>JD: AEEIOOW 13L AWEE +26 235
#note dear me, I have no idea. the board is very volatile but I have none of the letters I need to do anything.
>Dave_Wiegand: HLOS N10 HOL.S +52 387
>JD: DEIOOOS D10 .OO. +20 255
>Dave_Wiegand: BIOU B10 BOU.I. +30 417
>JD: DEIOSTV N2 DIVOT +36 291
>Dave_Wiegand: ?AEFFIR 2G AFFIRmE. +66 483
#note it seemed that everything I did this game helped dave out.
>JD: EEHLNSW 1F WHEEL +60 351
#note I could have left off the L and hoped to not empty the bag and draw a bingo, but if I come even close dave will block anyway.
>Dave_Wiegand: ELNOOTV 3E LOOT +18 501
#note his best
>JD: EIINRST O6 ST.RE +23 374
#note I thought I was clever to block his out, but given the upcoming series of events taking the points for INSET is better by 4 points.
>Dave_Wiegand: ENV L12 V..E +16 517
#note EN this turn at 15L sets up VALE for next turn and there's nothing I can do about it. 6 better
>JD: IIN G11 NI... +7 381
#note I should make the play he makes next.
>Dave_Wiegand: N M13 ..N +8 525
>Dave_Wiegand: (I) +2 527
#note after a couple of games with major mistakes on my part it seems there wasn't much I could do here. 0-4 for the morning, a first as far as I can remember at nationals.
