#note geez optional takes an S (-1) nopalito
>ginzberg: ABOU J6 BA.OU +18 100
>cesar: CEIIOOS 9C OI +8 102
#note i need to not lose this game by 120 or more, so all of these moves should be played for minimum entropy no matter what, i think. so EOSIN 10D is probably right here. my move sims just below K5 OI, which is the most entropic. -0.3
>ginzberg: EFU G11 FEU +13 113
>cesar: CEIIOST K1 COITIES +74 176
>cesar: CEIIOST -- -74 102
#note there are many days in which i would not have played this, and i was pretty sure it was phony, but thought i'd probably be fine anyway since i had CITES and it was worth the shot. part of me did think it was good. so silly. he instantly challenged.
>ginzberg: AADEILR 14E RADIALE +70 183
>cesar: CEIIOST 10B CITES +40 142
#note decent i guess. if i needed to win this game, i might do K5 OI. i would expect that to sim a bit higher, but this is 40 points, and CITES is far less entropy.
>ginzberg: ERX K5 REX +33 216
>cesar: ABILOOU B10 .OBIA +18 160
#note 13J ABOIL is the play i'm looking for here, although it gives more back.
>ginzberg: ADEENTT L6 DENTATE +84 300
>cesar: EJKLNOU M4 JOULE +34 194
#note ok now i'm in trouble and need to start playing normally again. i may need to bingo though.
>ginzberg: MOP 4I MOP +20 320
>cesar: CEGKNRW 3G KNEW +27 221
#note GEEZ, TERRIBLE. i only saw WICK now but not at the tournament. i was starting to freak out. this is by FAR the best play. although KNEW does have the lowest stdev both defensively and offensively, i'm now down by 6 pts (remember i need to not lose by 120) and need to treat this game correctly. if i just get one bingo i'm fine.
>ginzberg: FGI C13 FIG +26 346
>cesar: CGORSSY M10 GORSY +25 246
#note of course i saw N1 GYROS and now regret not playing it. i took the lowest entropy move again, but i have to give myself a chance to score, i think. i think GYROS is the play here. anyone agree? (it's of course best if i need to win outright, even though my chances are terrible of that).
>ginzberg: ADEHT 15H DEATH +54 400
#note this is really unlucky, honestly. i was trying to hit that spot for a while, but that's about worst case scenario for it, jesus.
>cesar: ACIRRSW 4C WIRRA +22 268
#note i need to treat this now as a straight gotta win game now, being down by 34 pts. what's the play? CRAW 7A? (seems too ridic).
>ginzberg: AEGNSV 2B GANEVS +43 443
#note lmfao
>cesar: CMNNSTZ 12K N..TZ +24 292
>ginzberg: EEIUV 5A VIE +11 454
>cesar: CMNS 11G ..NS +17 309
#note i was too discouraged to count and see that MAC is 2 more pts.
>ginzberg: EU 4M .EU +11 465
#note that's some ridiculously bad luck at the very end. i probably didn't deserve to win after trying COITIES for whatever weird reason that was, but that also shouldn't mean i lose by 170.
>ginzberg: (CM) +12 477
#note as Snoop said, "Deserve got nothing to do with it"
