>Juraj_Pivovarov: ENRW 8F WREN +14 14
#note The pairings didn't seem right here. Jackson and Cesar were one game ahead of Joey, and Joey was one game ahead of me, Max Panitch and Juraj. Juraj couldn't realistically get 3rd unless he made up for 500 spread points and won while Joey lost. They paired Joey against Jackson (could have done Cesar) to give him the opportunity to win into the finals, which made perfect sense. But then they paired 4th vs 7th and 5th vs 6th (me vs. Juraj), which didn't make sense to anyone I talked to. I think I should have played Max to control my destiny as much as possible. If I beat him, I go ahead of him in the standings and take 3rd place if Joey loses. In this case, he can win his game and get 3rd if Joey loses, even if I win. So I was not really in a good state of mind, not hopeful about cashing, because they only paid 3rd place. Still, I wanted to win by a lot.

>Juraj_Pivovarov: HOO 7G OHO +19 33
#note Juraj took around 8 minutes on this turn
>Joshua_Sokol: ?DEEIIN 10F .EIN +13 48
#note he blocked INDIGENE, the only thing I saw within 8 minutes. Impressive that I found the only bingo!
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ?AELNST 6C SLAiNTE +68 101
#note mANTELS is 72
>Joshua_Sokol: ?DEEFIU 5A FEUED +28 76
>Juraj_Pivovarov: AGRV D1 GRAV.. +24 125
>Joshua_Sokol: ?CEHIMR A1 CHIE. +42 118
#note I sort of autopiloted here, didn't really see anything or calculate how much a bingo would score. I should play C(A)MpHIRE for 88. 88 is a lot. -6
>Juraj_Pivovarov: BEN 5I NEB +14 139
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AGIMNR 1D .RAMmING +83 201
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AGIMNR -- -83 118
#note ugh. I wasn't sure of this but I thought it was good. So stupid
>Juraj_Pivovarov: PX 3C P.X +24 163
>Joshua_Sokol: ?AGIMNR K5 .ReAMING +74 192
#note wasn't even sure of this, much of the reason I played GRAMMING*
>Juraj_Pivovarov: AOTU L8 AUTO +16 179
>Joshua_Sokol: AAADDIL 1C A.ADDA +27 219
#note I really spaced out here, and Juraj did too. It's AGGADA! What an awful last-game performance.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: IIIIIO -IIIIIO +0 179
>Joshua_Sokol: CDIILRT H10 .RIDIC +30 249
#note held and released
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EOPRRST 14G P.ERROTS +74 253
#note 2H REPORTS
>Joshua_Sokol: AELLOTT M11 TOL. +11 260
#note but his bingo blocked ALLOTTED and TOTALLED! Leaving me with this...
>Juraj_Pivovarov: JKU J2 JUK. +31 284
>Joshua_Sokol: AEGLSTT M3 GESTALT +79 339
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EIINOQS N2 QI +25 309
>Joshua_Sokol: EELNOYY O3 EYNE +15 354
#note only 100% win according to Quackle, but that doesn't really make sense. Maybe he can outscore me somehow?
>Juraj_Pivovarov: BF 3I F.B +12 321
>Joshua_Sokol: AILOSUY N6 YAS +34 388
#note AULI(C) goes out in two, but I rathered going out in three and catching him making a mistake. He was low on time from taking 8 minutes to play OHO. Oh, and did you guys see why EYNE was the best play? Let me show you.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EIMOOVW 15N OW +17 338
#note -2. Why am I so excited and happy all of a sudden? I definitely wasn't happy in this game, because Joey still had to lose to Jackson and Max to Wayne for me to get 3rd. I did not expect anything coming of a victory here.
>Joshua_Sokol: ILOU K1 LO. +14 402
#note -24 because Juraj can stick me with the U. But instead I get away with this and outdo optimality in the endgame once again.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EIMOV 12E MOV.E +10 348
>Joshua_Sokol: IU G1 .UI +5 407
