#note I have no idea what to do here
>Seed_1,000,000: CGGGIOU -GGGIOU +0 0
#note this particular game is one of the worst things that's ever happened to me. you'll see. if i had kept CI, i would have won nationals.

#note I don't know how to play scrabble

>Matt_Canik: AEELNRS J2 LEANERS +70 70
>Seed_1,000,000: AEGJNRS 1H JAGER +51 67
#note i honestly was not 100% sure on JANGLERS, it looks pretty dumb, and once i saw JAGER i decided to play it safe. of course i had at some point an anamonic for ANGLERS that i can't remember. i'm going to bring back the anamonics. (-18.5)

>Matt_Canik: AEFHIOY 15K HO.EY +36 202
>Seed_1,000,000: ?DEINRU 5E INtUR.ED +82 331

>Matt_Canik: AEFIMRT 14M .MA +23 225
>Seed_1,000,000: CEEGORW 3B WOG +18 349
#note unfortunately, my chances of winning after this play stand at a meager 99.13%, but 3A GREW has a 99.14% chance of winning. i need every single fraction of a percent if i am to stand a chance of winning nationals. this was my worst mistake of the tournament.
>Matt_Canik: EFIPRTU 6D PFUI +21 246
>Seed_1,000,000: ACEELRX 11J LEX.CA +30 379
#note my win % has somehow gone up to 99.75%, but i stupidly missed the winninger EXARCH at 99.81%. i cannot win with mistakes like these.
>Matt_Canik: DEIKRTT 12K DI. +31 277
>Seed_1,000,000: AAEMORS L10 O..M +21 400
#note this is somewhat significant; 7H MORA keeps a much better leave. i wanted to block easy -ED/-ER bingos. -7 by not playing MORA, i lose 13 out of 10000 games, unfortunately.
>Matt_Canik: AEKRTTV O10 T.V +10 287
#note So I lose now I guess
>Seed_1,000,000: AADERST G8 .ADASTRE +63 463
#note Canik: This play wins 99.24% of the time. Cesar: I don't really have a great reason for not having played CADASTER instead of CADASTRE. i even thought that his last play indicated consonant heaviness, which makes CADASTRE even worse. The main thing that I remember thinking is that there's no D out and ERS bingoes seemed easier to me than -ER or -ES. but an E in 7th position is much more hittable than an R in 7th position regardless.
in any case, the right play here is clearly to just play off the A at AY or something like that. he is likely close to a bingo so even if he doesn't 3-3, CADASTER or CADASTRE are likely to result in worse spread for me. YA wins a staggering 99.98% of the time. there's absolutely no way i'm going to lose after YA.
>Matt_Canik: AEHKRST 15A HEKTAR.S +194 481
#note Canik: Except it wins ZERO PERCENT when you're playing matt canik
Cesar: one of the worst things is that this is close to worst case scenario - many triple triples still lose the game for him. he could even draw QE or something. i do suppose he could have had TORQUIER or something like that though.
>Seed_1,000,000: EILQTUV 11A TEQUIL. +32 495
#note all is good in the world.
>Matt_Canik: OR 14A OR +13 494
#note i won a stupid dictionary for high loss. as if i needed it, seeing as how i know all the words.
>Matt_Canik: (V) +8 502
