#player2 Peggy_Altazan Peggy Altazan
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEMNUUZ 8G MAZE +30 30
#note 2017 Crescent Cup Round 7: Could UNAU at 8F be better? This and my play are about identical. Once again, my choice is very volatile which suits my style.
>Peggy_Altazan: ACGY F7 CAGY +34 34
#note Afraid of that.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?ENOTUU -UU +0 30
#note I missed TENUOUs at K2 for 78. This was not a good play but TENUOUS is hard to spot with a blank S. Try it!
>Peggy_Altazan: ADIQ K5 QAID +46 80
#note TENUOUS should have cost me the game. It didn't. This play was misscored as 47.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?EFNORT H3 FRONT.gE +61 91
#note The board is now in horrible shape. Quackle likes FOE J6 for 29 from an equity standpoint, but that's terrible because the blank is worthless on that board and I am still behind. I like mine best. I could also do H6 SEAFRONT for 61 as well.
>Peggy_Altazan: AIV L4 VIA +25 105
>Jonathan_Lindh: BGNNSUV E10 BUNG +21 112
#note Best play!
>Peggy_Altazan: DEGIU 4C GUIDE. +16 121
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACINSTV 13C VA.IC +28 140
#note 3B VAN for 20 is of course best. Why did I feel the need to play VAGIC* which is a phony that always creeps into my mind. Peggy held for a long time and then let my play go. VAGIC* should have cost me the game as well.
>Peggy_Altazan: JO C2 JO. +22 143
>Jonathan_Lindh: ALNRSTU E2 RU.N +8 148
#note Terrible play! UNAMAZED or 9H plays for 33. This sets up BRUIN which I don't have.
>Peggy_Altazan: ELP G2 PE. +12 155
>Jonathan_Lindh: ALLOSTT 5G L.T +9 157
#note Still 9H plays but I think I wanted to block EPEE and fish.
>Peggy_Altazan: ELR J7 L.ER +8 163
>Jonathan_Lindh: ADLOSTT D7 LOTA +13 170
#note G8 MATT is best. -7.2
>Peggy_Altazan: ?EHNRST M6 HiNTERS +66 229
#note SPEEL is a word. We both were unsure of the hook. SHUNTER or SHORTEN for Peggy. -21.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DENSTTW N2 WENDS +31 201
#note I think this best given the board. Both of us are unsure of SPEEL and the board isn't friendly to bingos.
>Peggy_Altazan: NOO M1 NOO +15 244
>Jonathan_Lindh: AHLRTTY 12J TRA.HY +32 233
#note Best play! After a game full of bad play on my part, I finally see a dagger. This was the start of the comeback.
>Peggy_Altazan: ORU O12 .OUR +21 265
>Jonathan_Lindh: FILPSTX N9 IF +28 261
#note Not doing FIXT, Quackle. That's stupid. I like my play best because with all the E's out, there is a good chance I draw EXPO for 39 the next turn. Plus, I score and take out a good spot on this play.
>Peggy_Altazan: AEK O7 KAE +24 289
>Jonathan_Lindh: EILPSTX 8A EXP. +39 300
#note Couldn't have timed it better. Now I am threatening a bingo through the E given the pool.
>Peggy_Altazan: DEI 9A DIE. +23 312
>Jonathan_Lindh: EILSSTW O1 WE +21 321
#note Time to take out this obvious scoring spot. I think this is best.
>Peggy_Altazan: AE K10 EA. +8 320
>Jonathan_Lindh: ILOSST 5A TIS +15 336
#note No outs using the SPEEL hook although plays there probably draw a challenge.
>Peggy_Altazan: BIIMO N14 MO +18 338
#note Peggy misses D12 IAMB for 26. That doesn't but since I am unsure of SPEEL, the game might go into recount. I then do SLOB at 15A if I want to avoid a recount.
>Jonathan_Lindh: LOS 13I SOL +10 346
#note 2nd best play! SPEEL/SOL for 16. -6
>Jonathan_Lindh: (BII) +10 356
#note Score recorded as 356-338. Not a well played game on my part but I take the win anyway.
