#player1 Steven_Dinapoli Steven Dinapoli
#player2 Jonathan_Lindh Jonathan Lindh
>Steven_Dinapoli: DEEHIIN 8D HEINIE +26 26
#note 2017 Crescent City Cup Round 16: Steven was an opponent who I played last year. Let's give this a whirl!
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEIIOR D8 .EROIC +22 22
#note 2nd best play! Didn't see CHEERIO in same spot. -5.6
>Steven_Dinapoli: DDGIKOT 13B DO.K +22 48
#note SD: I nearly blundered with 7F KIDDO, but fortunately I noticed DI* before hitting my clock. E5 TOKED is a couple points better than my play.
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEITYZ 11C C.ZIE +32 54
#note OYEZ is preferred to this. -4.6
>Steven_Dinapoli: DGINOPT 10F POD +24 72
#note SD: I missed H11 DINGO for 42. My play keeps a better leave, but it's not worth sacrificing 18 points. (-6)
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEIORTY 14B OY +21 75
#note Best play!
>Steven_Dinapoli: GINNTTV E5 GIV.N +20 92
#note SD: Now is when I should have sacrificed points for leave. The GINNT leave after 9C VET is better than it looks. (-4.8)
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEIRRST J5 ARTSIER +71 146
#note Best play! Underscored by 2.
>Steven_Dinapoli: BBNORTT 5J .BBOT +18 110
#note SD: My play is second to 5I BARBOT, which I didn't know. (-3)
>Jonathan_Lindh: ADEFNOS O1 FEODS +43 189
#note Quackle likes F5 OF by a little bit, but I want to cover this spot. 14 is too many points to sacrifice.
>Steven_Dinapoli: AGNPRTU M3 GR.UP +22 132
#note SD: My play, H10 DRUG, and L4 ABRUPT all simulate within a couple points of each other.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAJNQTT D2 QANAT +33 222
#note Best play!
>Steven_Dinapoli: AAENTUX F5 AX +55 187
#note A little unlucky here!
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?EJLLST 3C T.J +20 242
#note This is my best play according to Quackle, but I really need to dump JLL. I was a little spooked by Steve's big X play.
>Steven_Dinapoli: AENRTUU L7 UNAU +9 196
#note I believe this was Steven's actual rack.
SD: Q likes L7 UNTRUE, but I need a bingo soon, and ERT is a much better leave than A in that regard.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?ELLLSS -LLL +0 242
#note Maybe I should play 12C LIES for 34 instead of dumping LLL?
>Steven_Dinapoli: ?EINORT N7 ORIENTs +63 259
#note M9 INTONER scores 69 but slots an R in the triple lane. Is it worth the risk? I'm not sure.
SD: H1 TENORInI would have been awesome. I didn't even consider the possibility of getting an eight down on this board. (-12)
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AAESST 4C A. +4 246
#note This rack is trickier than it looks. The only playable bingo is ATLASES, which I did not see. -18.8
>Steven_Dinapoli: AEGLMNW K10 MEW +25 284
#note Steven wisely tries to block a lane while scoring. However...
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AEISST 13H sASSIE.T +73 319
#note ...I get this down. I always wanted to play a bingo with 4 S's! This is the best play along with MASSIEST and GASSIEST. But way more fun!
>Steven_Dinapoli: AAFGLNV 4F FAVA +27 311
>Jonathan_Lindh: EELLMOW N1 OW +25 344
#note Did not see 12C LIE, but it's probably better to cover this cheap points spot first.
>Steven_Dinapoli: DEGHLLN 14I EH +28 339
#note SD: This was my biggest mistake of the game. At the very least, I should have seen O8 EDH for an extra 7 points. Q says 12C LIEN gives me the best chance of winning. It turns out I wasn't going to win regardless given the last two tiles in the bag.
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEILLMU O12 I.EM +24 368
#note 2nd best play! Missed the 12C spot again. LIEU 12C for 34 is now my best play with ITEM available next turn if I can't go out with LIME or MILE. -4.7
>Steven_Dinapoli: DGLLNRY B4 DRY +19 358
#note Steven makes the 2nd best play! He misses H10 DRYS for 28 so we both missed plays in that area. -3.7
SD: F10 (PI)G would have been a great block, but it didn't really matter...
>Jonathan_Lindh: ELLU 15J ELL +10 378
#note I miss LIEU for 34 once again! -24. Mine was 3rd best.
>Steven_Dinapoli: GLLN H7 G.L. +6 364
#note 9L AGIN for 7 for Steven. -1.
>Jonathan_Lindh: U 15N U. +4 382
#note PIU for 5 and -1 for me.
>Jonathan_Lindh: (LN) +4 386
#note Score recorded as 384-364. Should have been over 400 but kept missing C12 plays. Other than those and ATLASES, fairly well played game.
