>Brian_Summers: EOPX 8E EXPO +26 26
>Avery: ELLOOOQ -LLOOOQ +0 0
>Brian_Summers: IM 9E MI +17 43
>Avery: EIRSUYZ I8 SIZY +31 31
#note Hoping he doesn't notice the EXPOSE hook. I didn't see 10C RYUS.
>Brian_Summers: DOS 10D DOS +23 66
>Avery: EFINRSU C7 INFUSER +85 116
>Brian_Summers: ABNRY H11 BARNY +40 106
>Avery: DEIIJKN 14F JI.KED +36 152
#note Oops. There's a really good spot for the J and the K that I completely missed. I have a 59 point play available here. That's disheartening to see.
>Brian_Summers: DU 8A DU. +12 118
>Avery: AEEHINO J6 HIE +29 181
#note Maybe not a good idea given that he's surely close to a bingo and likely has a blank.
>Brian_Summers: ?AELOST K1 sOLATES +69 187
#note ZEALOTS is the highest scoring bingo here at 85.
>Avery: AAEENOT L3 AEON +22 203
#note I can't see why Quackle likes J10 AE so much. My bingo chances are only at about 40% after it. I guess it does agree that this is superior to a play like 1G AEONS though.
>Brian_Summers: ?AACDER D1 ARCADEs +71 258
#note And here, I start tilting again.
>Avery: AEEGLTT 1A GET. +15 218
#note Not sure this was my rack. I spent forever on this turn for no good reason.
>Brian_Summers: ALNU 1G ULNA. +12 270
>Avery: AEEGLNT A8 .ANEGELT +86 304
#note exhale, I can do this
>Brian_Summers: OVW M1 VOW +30 300
>Avery: AABEMQT I4 QAT +19 323
#note Not sure if I had the M or not. If so, AMEBA seems fine - keeps up the scoring aggression quite nicely, though the Q can become a big liability quite easily.
>Brian_Summers: GI 1M .IG +21 321
>Avery: ABEIMRR 15K EMBAR +39 362
#note Pretty sure this was my rack here.
>Brian_Summers: HO 2I OH. +29 350
>Avery: CEIINRW K12 WI.. +8 370
#note I was almost out of time after spending forever on GETA, AEON and EMBAR (like less than 2 minutes left). I saw he had the F, V and P after he accidentally knocked some tiles off of his rack, so I played this and hoped for the best. GERONTIC/CONCERTI, CONCERTO, CROONIER were among the possibilities. I got very flustered again, and I let my nerves get to me here. I think it would have been different if I were at a different tournament, but I had gotten this far without losing a game, and I didn't want to lose now. I just knew I had messed up somewhere (JINKED, as it turns out). To the dismay of the people who dislike me as a player and a person, I lucked out once again.
>Brian_Summers: FILOPUV 13J P.LI +16 366
#note I believe this was his rack.
>Avery: CEINORT O1 .ERONTIC +86 456
#note A bit frustrating that I had to get lucky to pull this one out. Well played by Brian. Really not proud of this effort, and it makes it hard to be proud of these kinds of results when I know I'm not playing well.
