>Jonathan_Lindh: EMNPPTU 8D PEPTUM +30 30
#note Jonn's comments: 2017 Crescent City Cup Round 3: I was going to 8G PUMP and then decided this was a word. It's not, but I did mamage to phony on a 1900 level player who almost never gets phonied on! Sidd also though MUPPET* was good. I happen to think PEPTUM* is more convncing than MUPPET*!
Sidd's comments: Complete fail on my part!
>Sidd: AACLNOR D6 CO.LANAR +74 74
#note Unfortunately, my phony gave him a real bingo. However, PUMP would as well. Good play by Sidd!
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?BCIINO J2 BIONICs +80 110
#note And then I pluralize the phony! BORNITIC at 13B for 78 is best vaid bingo.
>Sidd: Q 3I Q. +21 95
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?BHINRS 12C B.NISHeR +66 176
#note Jonn's comments: Nowhere for BRINISH and whiff on BAIRNISH, which I know cold. I like the other BANISHER looking back on the game as well.
>Sidd: AEEMOSZ F6 ZE. +34 129
#note Sidd's comments: 5th best play! Missed HAZE in the huge spot he provided. (-16.5)
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAEGOTY E4 AGO +22 198
#note J-Dawg's comments: HOYA at H12. Of course! This play stunk.
Sidd's comments: Giving up mindless points to Jonn with a place to play his vowels!
>Sidd: AEEFMOS D1 FOAM +34 163
#note Jonn's comments: Giving up mindless points to Sidd. I deserved FOAM.
Sidd's comments: Quackle says this is best, but I think I should play FOAM at 13f to not give up more mindless points to Jonn with the F on the triple.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAEGTUY 13B YA.E +24 222
#note Jonn's comments: THUYA H11. I keep missing that spot.
Sidd's comments: I missed that hotspot a lot too.
>Sidd: EEISTVW H11 W.ITE +33 196
#note Jonn's comments: I pay for my mistake.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AGKLTUU C3 KAT +31 253
#note Jonn's comments: Maybe G12 SKUA? -5.6
Sidd's comments: I would totally play KAT to save GUT(F)UL with a T draw! This overrides equity considerations.
>Sidd: EENRSVW 1D .EWER +33 229
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEGITUU 11J AUGITE +16 269
#note Jonn's comments: Best play! But trading is worth considering here.
Sidd's comments: I would not trade here because it does not even show up when I hit Generate Choices. I think J-Dawg's play is clearly the optimal play. Nice!
>Sidd: DEGNOSV O7 VENG.D +39 268
#note Jonn's comments: Sidd has now caught up. And here is where I truly blow it.

>Jonathan_Lindh: FJNOOTU M9 JO.NT +40 309
#note Jonn's comments: M9 JOINT or 14A JOT? That is the question. I went with the first one and I chose wrongly. There is one more S than O out and I have an O but no S which overrides the equity considerations. I think JOT would have won me the game despit my miscues so far.
>Sidd: AEIOSSX 14H .AXIES +42 310
#note Ouch!!!!!
>Jonathan_Lindh: FOSUUVY 10I OF +27 336
#note Jonn's comments: 14A FOY for sure.
>Sidd: EEIORST 6D ...IE +16 326
#note Sidd's comments: 2nd best play! I obviously should play OE 14a as Quackle suggests. (-0.4)
>Jonathan_Lindh: NRSUUVY 5H RU.NY +18 354
#note Jonn's comments: The S is worth more here due to Sidd's potential. Although 15G VENUS may be the play here.
>Sidd: DELORST 4L OLD +18 344
>Jonathan_Lindh: ADDISUV O1 VAUS +30 384
#note Jonn's comments: Sidd almost certainly has the other S, so this spot has to go. I can't really block the B5 line so I have to take my chances here. They aren't that many bingos he can hit here, right?
>Sidd: EILORST B5 ESTRIOL +63 407
#note Jonn's comments: VAUS was still the right call. I didn't deserve to win this game against a 1900 level player, even though I should have with some better play.
Sidd's comments: I WOKE UP IN A NEW BUGATTI!!!!!!
>Sidd: (DDEHILR) +24 431
#note Sidd: I got very lucky to win this game against a quality 1700 up and coming player, J-Dawg!
