>Juraj_Pivovarov: CLOTU 8D CLOUT +20 20
>Joshua_Sokol: ADDIPRT 9G PARD +20 20
#note I would normally do PAD but I didn't like the inflexibility of DIRT compared to DIT with no floating vowels on the board to get rid of my consonants. It's probably better to play PARD.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: AHIR D8 .HAIR +20 40
>Joshua_Sokol: ADFGIIT K8 GIFT +24 44
>Juraj_Pivovarov: BOW C11 BOW +22 62
>Joshua_Sokol: ADDEIMO E6 ME.OID +37 81
#note LOIDED looks good in the same spot, missed it.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EJTU D3 JUTE +26 88
#note gave him a spot to go. Small mistakes can backfire like this. What does he do with JUTE if I don't open up the top of the board?
>Joshua_Sokol: ADELNVZ 8K .AZED +51 132
>Juraj_Pivovarov: EFIQ 4A FIQ.E +21 109
>Joshua_Sokol: AGLMNRV B1 LAV.NG +28 160
#note after MELOID, this board is now completely out of control, and I have to deal with the consequences and hope my offense outdoes his

I underscored this as 24 instead of 28...
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ?AILSUY 14C SAUcILY +68 177
>Joshua_Sokol: AEEMNNR O1 MANNERE. +86 246
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ?DEIRTY 15G DIETaRY +97 274
#note Dodged a humongous bullet here, he had a 3x3
>Joshua_Sokol: ABEKORS 1A B.OKE +48 294
#note still felt ok here, I've got a pretty good lead with a pretty good leave.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: ISX F2 XIS +44 318
>Joshua_Sokol: AAELRSU 15A UREA +28 322
#note that one hurt though, the draw and the 44-point comeback. I could play this or LAURA N2 for 28 as well, hope he misses the BOWS-E hook or hope for a bingo. Either way prospects aren't nearly as good as they were last turn.
>Juraj_Pivovarov: CENOSTV G13 V.. +11 329
#note I think he said this was his leave. This hits with around 1/3 of the pool, so it's not quite worth it over trying to fight for the lead with CONVE(Y) M10.
>Joshua_Sokol: AAEEILS 13I AE +10 332
#note Totally at a loss now, I can't score except with A4 (F)EASE, and he's just fished. He has to have something decent, right? I think it's worth blocking this lane, right? N1 ALAE would have been fine perhaps. Really ugly position though, and perhaps my idea of just playing better offense really should have applied here.

This is the game-losing mistake after a series of moves putting the game in question
>Juraj_Pivovarov: CENOPST N5 POT.NCES +80 409
#note looking at the pool I just couldn't win, although I did like POTENCE.
>Joshua_Sokol: AEILOSW - +0 332
>Juraj_Pivovarov: HINNT O11 NINTH +32 441
#note hmm he did miss (S)H it seems so maybe I had a chance still...
>Joshua_Sokol: AEILOSW F10 SEI +17 349
#note missed his out -_-

trainwreck game
>Juraj_Pivovarov: GOOR 1K GROO. +9 450
>Juraj_Pivovarov: (AWOL) +14 464
#note well played by Juraj and very clear to me why I lost. Final recorded as 464-345
