#player1 Joel_Horn Joel Horn
#player2 Joshua_Sokol Joshua Sokol
>Joel_Horn: BEIUZ 8E BIZE +30 30
#note said he forwent ZEBU because there was no "safe" placement of it. I understand the logic, though the U is too bad.
>Joshua_Sokol: ENPQTYY 7H TYPY +18 18
#note however it worked out because it didn't give me a Y play or a nice TYPY underlap. I somehow failed to play this at 9B and set up QI if I draw the I. What the fuck is going on? I already deserve to lose.
>Joel_Horn: AMORT 8K AMORT +35 65
#note fuck
>Joshua_Sokol: EIINQSV 9D QI +15 33
#note Q(I) seemed like a stronger fish but I didn't want to risk failing as my fishes have been missing lately. I bingo a bit more but not enough to justify 4 points and less variance.
>Joel_Horn: ALW 9G AWL +26 91
>Joshua_Sokol: AEINRSV 10A RAVINES +92 125
#note Joel had a very hard time counting this (and believing it was so many points). We had to stop the clock for a good minute or more for him to agree with the score.
>Joel_Horn: DEEHNSU O6 EN.HUSED +63 154
>Joshua_Sokol: EIKMPRS J9 SKIMPER +84 209
#note I was just this was good. It ain't. Lucky to get away with it. N5 SPI(R)EM is best score at 49, but N2 SKIMP is probably the play. MI(R)K sims best at A8
>Joel_Horn: ALOUV 15E VALOU. +27 181
>Joshua_Sokol: ADDEGNT A9 D.AGNET +33 242
>Joel_Horn: ?AEEHOW N5 OW +26 207
#note Actual rack, N5 WHO(R)E is the play here.
>Joshua_Sokol: ADDINSU K11 DUADS +41 283
#note now that he probably has a blank, I'm trying to outrun things and control the board.
>Joel_Horn: ?AEEHNO N12 HAE +20 227
>Joshua_Sokol: EFGIJNT M3 JIG +25 308
#note this is not fucking good enough. 5J JING(O) actually blocks and E6 JI(BI)NG does well to outrun bingos.
>Joel_Horn: ?AEFLNR 4K FA.L +20 247
#note another player would have spotted FRAULEIN here. He put down FORELA(I)N and I wasn't even going to hold. If I had held I would have challenged, though.
>Joshua_Sokol: EFLNOTU 5G FLUTE +26 334
#note I was playing quite fast
>Joel_Horn: CGO M13 COG +26 273
>Joshua_Sokol: EINNOOR 6B IONONE +15 349
#note this one I really did play too fast. I need to see that I can possibly lose after a bingo and an X play or the other way round. This is still probably best but maybe (G)OONIER 12A is better to limit possible bingos next turn as well.
>Joel_Horn: ?EENORT C1 ROTEn.NE +66 339
#note played very quickly. B1 ExERT(I)ON would be better to threaten a lot of stuff and pair worse with my range of racks.
>Joshua_Sokol: CEIIORR 1A CI.RI +24 373
#note I was calm here but I knew that I might actually lose. I had ample time to find this. Not a super tough endgame. Still, way too close for comfort. He is threatening two huge X plays that I only barely outrun. My next best plays lose by 1.
>Joel_Horn: ?ABITX O1 AXIs +37 376
#note he plays this really fast too, but like I said, his 58-point x-bomb comes up just short.
>Joshua_Sokol: EOR D4 RE.O +15 388
>Joshua_Sokol: (BT) +8 396
