>JD: AAERTTY 8G TAY +12 12
#note dead heat between YARTA and TAY.
>Chris_Lipe: ?ACHILN H8 .CHeNIAL +89 89
>JD: AEFINRT 7I FAINTER +77 89
#note FAINTIER is the better play, but not worth risking bc I wasn't 100% on its validity.
>Chris_Lipe: MOPT O6 T.OMP +27 116
>JD: EEIIORV L4 OVI.E +18 107
>Chris_Lipe: KORY G11 ROKY +35 151
>JD: EIRRSUZ J6 Z. +31 138
#note should take the extra points for RIZA, EIRRSU doesn't actually bingo that much and doesn't score very well unless I draw the bingo.
>Chris_Lipe: ORU N9 OUR +15 166
>JD: BEIRRSU F2 BURIERS +74 212
#note worked out this time
>Chris_Lipe: EGIILNS 12C LESI..ING +70 236
>Chris_Lipe: CFOO (challenge) +5 241
#note he can also play RELIGIONS at 4F for another possible 9!
>JD: AADPTTU E4 UPTA +26 238
>Chris_Lipe: CFOO D1 COOF +36 277
>JD: ADDEGTV K9 VAG.ED +24 262
#note I saw AVID and VIDE, but it seemed like a big priority to try to pull one of the big remaining power tiles, and VAGGED creates a J spot if I draw it that could immediately flip the game in my favor (I'm only 25% to win at the moment). Chris may even sacrifice a lot of points to block should he think I already have the J.
>Chris_Lipe: IQ M3 QI +24 301
>JD: DMNOSTU M9 MOUND +39 301
>Chris_Lipe: AAW 1A WAA. +27 328
>JD: EEJSSTX 2A EX +41 342
#note the plan couldn't have worked any better, I come down with the J and X. the blank is still out there and chris will probably win if he bingos, but fortunately the board is tight. JEELS on this turn blocks a more probably quadrant of the board, but it's hard to resist saving the H for J10 if I draw an A, and I may get JEELS next turn anyway.
>Chris_Lipe: AEN J10 NA.E +15 343
>JD: EEJLSST C9 JEL.S +40 382
#note now I'm in great shape, all the bingo lanes are gone except for 9s on column A.
>Chris_Lipe: AI N2 AI +15 358
>JD: DEEGIST 1H EDGIEST +83 465
>Chris_Lipe: ?ELNORT D7 TRON +19 377
>Chris_Lipe: ?EL (challenge) +5 382
#note best here is LiTRE at G1. I challenged.
>JD: BDEHW E9 WEB. +34 499
#note given how well I drew down the home stretch, probably VIDE and VAGGED both would've worked out for me, but I still think that was the move that triggered my comeback.
>Chris_Lipe: ?EL G1 LEg +17 399
>Chris_Lipe: (DH) +12 411
