#note TSAHTMIAO
>cesar: AFNNTTV 6E .NFANT +13 81
#note an absurd overreaction. Go for equity, cesar. FANT > TV by a lot. I7 VENT. -6.5 (basically, I kept a significantly negative leave for only 13 points...)
>ginzberg: DUW D10 WUD +21 93
>cesar: ?ARSTTV I5 A.T.VeRTS +67 148
#note honestly maybe K5 VAT/TAV are better.

#note this was the hardest move of the tournament for me. i need to win this game, obviously, but at this point i'm one game ahead, and winning this puts me in fantastic shape to win the tournament, so i should play my best and somewhat cautiously. i thought of TOPO C9 but didn't like it. in the end, i went for Equity, since Equity is how Scrabble works.

#note ugh

>cesar: EFILORR K2 RIF.ER +19 225
#note i didn't like FREON that much, but i have to go for leave/equity here. 10B FEWER looked like another ugly alternative. I decided to go for Turnover, since i'm going on 33 years old soon and that's what people my age or older do. -2
>ginzberg: CG 3J C.G +6 238
#note this is going to be bad.
>cesar: DJKLMOO C11 JOOK +43 268
#note there's nothing worse than playing a 43-pt play when down by 13 and knowing you're going to lose. but maybe i'll draw a tile.
>ginzberg: OY 4K .OY +24 262
>cesar: DEIILMN 15N MI +16 284
#note i may have played MINIVAN if i saw it, but honestly after CIG and FOY i'm pretty sure he has an S. -1
>ginzberg: Q 12G Q.. +12 274
>cesar: DEEIILN 9G EN.IED +19 303
#note this is a mega tough move. i honestly wonder if i should have done YIELD. if i inference ES?, YIELD still sims pretty low and still gives up a bingo a large % of the time. TRIFLER and something through the E in ANTEVERTS is definitely possible, but i thought the column N bingo lane was more dangerous. in the end i chose to take the equity play, because i could not see how it was smart to sacrifice points/leave and still leave a couple of likely lanes open. i know that i'm in trouble, though unfortunately. what should i do here?
quackle likes 2K REI and K11 DIVAN, fishing for my own bingo. -3.5
>ginzberg: ?EEEORS N1 EyESORE +76 350
>cesar: DEGILNP 12A PL.. +10 313
#note 12B POD is funny. if i draw the A, my bingo doesn't fit there :P. I can't play anywhere like PLED/PEED or whatever since i need to bingo on column O now, and the only way i thought to distract him was to play here. this is unfortunate. i could also do things like PLEB, or even 13B GO .... i don't know.
