>Laurie_Cohen: NTU 8G NUT +6 6
>Thomas_Reinke: BCIILOQ G6 CI.Q +26 26
#note Was about to play COQUI until I saw this. New words really do take a while to get used to.
>Laurie_Cohen: ACSV 10D VACS +31 37
>Thomas_Reinke: ABEHILN 8G ...HIN +10 36
#note Missing E5 ABELIAN, or I can fish with E10 AH. This seemed like such a good leave though.
>Laurie_Cohen: ABDNT K4 BAND.T +18 55
>Thomas_Reinke: ABEFILO 4H FOI.LE +30 66
#note I1 LIFEBOAT. I think I've only ever had one multiday tournament where I didn't miss a ton of bingos.

Admittedly, I wasn't playing this game with the same intensity as the ones earlier in the tournament. I could have taken a nap for the whole consolation round and come in 8th.

Still a bad miss, though.

#note DINKILY* was only mildly tempting.

>Laurie_Cohen: FO M12 OF +15 223
>Thomas_Reinke: GIIORST 14J GRITS +26 301
#note She must have kept really nice stuff; I wanted to score while starting to shut the board down. None of the fishes seemed all that good.
>Laurie_Cohen: NX 11C N.X +38 261
>Thomas_Reinke: EIIJMOR A1 JO +30 331
#note Saw 10J JOT after hitting the clock.
>Laurie_Cohen: UV J12 VU. +7 268
>Thomas_Reinke: EIIIMRZ 10L .IZ +32 363
#note I have all the I's, so a -ING bingo hooking VUG wasn't a huge concern. This scores and closes some more lanes.
>Laurie_Cohen: NOU 6K .OUN +6 274
>Thomas_Reinke: EEIIMOR K14 .E +2 365
#note There are five bingos she can hit on the bottom row after I do this, compared with 21 if I don't. Still not worth it at all, according to Quackle, which likes 5M MOI, leaving 1 in the bag, and blocking only 1 possibility, APOSTLE. I was scared of something like PEDAGOG, but something like PILOTAGE after this would really hurt also.
>Laurie_Cohen: GLO 15H LOG. +24 298
>Thomas_Reinke: EIIMOPR 14D PRIME +13 378
#note This is the best play, blocking MONTAGE.
