>cesar: AAIINRU 8D ANURIA +14 14
#note There is a collorary of Scrabble that says it's never correct to open with 6 1-pointers. I just found the counterexample.
>betty_b: AACIV G3 CAVIA. +15 15
>cesar: ADGIORS 5G .IGOR +18 32
#note geez. ADVISOR is definitely the move here :(
>betty_b: HO 6I OH +29 44

>betty_b: BIM 2J MIB +29 73

>cesar: ELPRTTW K7 TW.RP +20 174
#note honestly not sure. W(E)PT is better defensively and keeps a better leave (through the A). 4L TEW is ok too.
>betty_b: ANZ 6D NAZ. +33 172
>cesar: ELORTUW 2N WO +25 199
>betty_b: MO 8N OM +14 186
>cesar: EEELRTU E8 .EUTER +12 211
#note 4L TEEL or TELE. this was one of my few purposefully bad moves of the tournament. it seemed right to do this. i can't explain the exact reasoning because i can't figure it out myself. this sims about 14 points below TEEL, but i was aware it would do this.
>betty_b: DLO 13C LO.D +10 196
>cesar: ?EJLRVX 12D J.E +41 252
#note she didn't bingo and now i'm in control of the board. NEUTER backfires a lot, but i think if she doesn't bingo i can begin shutting down. don't like JEER.
>betty_b: EH F10 HE.. +31 227
>cesar: ?LRTUVX D3 VUL. +14 266
#note or maybe 9B LUXE
>betty_b: LOP 5B PO.L +16 243
>cesar: ?DFIRTX N6 FR..T +18 284
#note i don't see a reason to do anything at 14A or B.
>betty_b: IQ M5 QI +16 259
>cesar: ?BDINXY 12H NIXY +29 313
>betty_b: AG 11I GA. +18 277
>cesar: ?BDINOT H2 B.D. +14 327
#note i'm still not out of the water, and after GAP, i cannot possibly play BOT or BIT at 14B right?
>betty_b: GU 3B GU. +14 291
>cesar: ?EEINOT L7 OE. +12 339
#note some sort of fish here
>betty_b: CEK B5 .ECK +14 305
>cesar: ?AEINST 14F STAINEd +71 410
#note i am good at drawing
>cesar: (?EELN) +8 418
#note ok, fine. NEUTER was a hideous move. it was a bit of an experiment because i had a strong feeling that if i didn't do it, she'd bingo, although it does give her more letters to bingo through. i don't know, i'm still learning.
