#player1 Joey Joey
#player2 Mack Mack
>Joey: AADNQRW 8D DRAWN +22 22
#note Another somewhat low scoring five keeping AQ. Not ideal, but not much else to do.
>Mack: KORTVYZ F5 VOT.RY +22 22
>Joey: AEFLQUU D4 FAUL. +18 40
>Mack: GIIKLTZ C3 TIZ +40 62
>Joey: AAEEQUX B1 QUA +26 66
#note I saw EXEQUY, but it opened up too much and didn't keep as dynamic a leave.
>Mack: AGIKLRS B1 ...G +21 83
>Joey: EEEIPUX 1A E.UIP +51 117
#note Glad that he played off one of those G's so that extensions became less likely for him.
>Mack: AEIKLRS E10 ARK +19 102
#note Opening up an S hook and going for EQUIPOISE - F1 SKI/SKA is a strong alternative I considered but this seems good with so many Os out.
>Joey: ?BEEITX 2E EX +29 146
>Mack: CEILOST 3E CITOLES +77 179
#note Gotta play the bingo now despite the style points for EQUIPOISE.
>Joey: ?BEIMST 2H BEMISTs +100 246
>Mack: CINOOSS 12B NOO. +16 195
#note Trying to set up my Ss - it's not that easy for Joey to block without giving something back on row 14.
>Joey: EEIJNOT B10 JE.NET +58 304
>Mack: CDEIISS A12 SIDE +39 234
>Joey: AEEIOOU G7 A.EE +21 325
#note Hard to imagine playing through this, but it closed off a lane and put me ahead by enough to withstand an exchange next turn if needed.
>Mack: ?CDILMS K1 D..CLaIMS +76 310
#note Seems better than MISDRAWN - CDL? is going to be tough to bingo with on this board after MISDRAWN and I have a decent chance of catching up after DISCLAIMS especially if he is vowel-heavy which AWEE suggests.
>Joey: EHIOOUY J6 YOU +32 357
#note I saw HOOEY and somehow didn't realize it fit there.
>Mack: AFHINOT 1G FAT +36 346
>Joey: AEHIORW 4K .AHOW +34 391
>Mack: AHIINOP L8 PIANI +32 378
#note The O seemed slightly better with the H here, hence this over PIANO.
>Joey: BEEIORR 8J ...IRE +30 421
>Mack: EHLNORV D12 .H +5 383
#note Don't think I can win here with optimal play. Was hoping he somehow either mistracked or messed up and blocked row 14 and I hit OVERLEND to go out.
>Joey: BDEGGOR K11 EGG +17 438
>Mack: ELNNORV 8A NON..... +36 419
#note I so wanted to record a rare challenge victory against Mack, but I couldn't pull the trigger. Now you all know this works against me, but watch out when I hit the books later in 2019!
>Joey: ABDOR 7M BAR +19 457
>Mack: ELRV N6 V.. +14 433
#note H1 ABOVE is 2 better, I was out of time.
>Joey: DO 7B DO. +11 468
#note DOR E6 for one more. Plenty of flaws throughout these 24 games, but I certainly drew well enough to overcome it.
>Joey: (ELR) +6 474 |
