>Sal_Piro: ALX 8G LAX +20 20
>Joshua_Sokol: DDESTTU 9H DUD +19 19
#note no luck for an E here
>Sal_Piro: IWZ 10F WIZ +36 56
>Joshua_Sokol: EIPRSTT K5 PITTERS +92 111
#note I didn't really like this, but I played it anyway. PITTERS* . Only TIPSTER and SPITTER. This could have been bad.
>Sal_Piro: EEGLMOT 6J F.GGY +29 85
>Sal_Piro: EEGLMOT -- -29 56
#note and then he played this, and I didn't even hold until he was about to draw. After a minute I decided I didn't like FIGGY*. PRUNEY+ is new, and I thought FIGLIKE* was good
>Joshua_Sokol: DEMSUUW J6 MU +22 133
#note not wanting to give anything back, hoping he will now have to exchange.
>Sal_Piro: ?EFGGY 11G FEY +28 84
#note he said he also already had the blank, so he wasn't worried about having lost a turn
>Joshua_Sokol: DELSTUW 12H DEW +32 165
>Sal_Piro: ?ABGG L4 BAG +22 106
#note setting up his second G with (MIG)G, nice.

Or maybe missing GAB for one more, but I think Sal knew what he was doing
>Joshua_Sokol: ALSTTUY 8K .ATTY +27 192
#note I hoped he would have played (YE)GG and gave me a nice hotspot. Here I chickened out of (T)UTTY. I might also prefer to play LAY M3. Still, regardless, knowing he has a G, the worst tile in the game of Scrabble, I should be in great shape here, right?
>Sal_Piro: ?DEGINO O8 .ODElING +86 192
#note nope, remember, I get everything wrong when I play Sal Piro.
>Joshua_Sokol: EILMSSU 14J MUSLI. +28 220
>Sal_Piro: EINOTV 15I VETOIN. +25 217
>Joshua_Sokol: AAAEERS 13I AA +19 239
#note alright, if you really want to play the defense game, let's do it!
>Sal_Piro: AHIL M2 HAIL +23 240
>Joshua_Sokol: AEEERRS N1 REE +18 257
#note Welp, not only do I always miss EASER when I study, but I miss it in game too. That's 37 points! I guess playing the defense game was a mistake
>Sal_Piro: FI N10 IF +17 257
>Joshua_Sokol: AEGORRS O1 ER +18 275
>Sal_Piro: ABO 9E BO +9 266
#note Sal gives up early into our defensive adventure and sets up his A. I don't know how likely it was for me to have had an A at this point, but Sal barely thought it was possible!
>Joshua_Sokol: AAEGORS D9 AGAROSE +73 348
#note Definitely prefer to play here and minimize his chances at a bingo. I could play it 2 squares up for 2 more points, but nah. He does not seem to have tiles that are conducive to scoring.
>Sal_Piro: ACEIINR G1 IRENICA. +62 328
#note well, I guess I should have
>Joshua_Sokol: ?ELOORS 1B cOLOR.SE +74 422
#note Looked a very long time before coming up with this. I felt I really needed to take that spot since QUO(I)N or QUO(I)T could hurt massively. Only other thing that plays through the I is OESTRIOL
>Sal_Piro: HQTU 13B QU.TH +34 362
>Joshua_Sokol: CEJKNNO 15A JOK. +45 467
#note no way to guarantee an out in 2, so I just took the points.
>Sal_Piro: NOPV 11C V.N +12 374
#note -3 to P(A)N in in the same spot, keeping VO(G)
>Joshua_Sokol: CENN C1 .NCE +12 479
>Sal_Piro: OP 14F OP +13 387
#note N5 PO is 1 more
>Sal_Piro: (N) +2 389
