#player1 Kurt Kurt
#player2 JD JD
>Kurt: IQ 8G QI +22 22
>JD: ACEHILU G8 .UAICH +25 25
#note I didn't know if Kurt would know QUAICHS, so I liked getting the potential hook on the board
>Kurt: ?ACNOST 11D SON.CATe +86 108
#note from him not playing ATONICS/QUAICHS, I thought he might not know QUAICHS, but ATONICS is not obvious.
>JD: EEELOOO -EEOOO +0 25
#note he blocked my ony reasonable play of COOEE after my sweet EEOOO draw
>Kurt: AAERU 10I AURAE +14 122
>JD: DEEIIIL 10D ILI. +14 39
#note down to 10% win per quackle. In hindsight, I might prefer exchanging again rather than block the left side of the board, but I guess I was banking on the QUAICHS hook being my path back into this one.
>Kurt: AKO 9I KOA +29 151
>Kurt: AKO -- -29 122
>JD: DEEGIRS 12I SEDGIER +79 118
#note I had a smidgeon of doubt about QUAICHS, and didn't want to risk not getting to bingo just for 5 extra points.
>Kurt: ABKNOOY O11 D.OAK +30 152
>Kurt: ABKNOOY -- -30 122
>JD: ?MNOPTT O11 T.OMP +27 145
#note I wanted to find a play here that didn't block possible triple-triples - maybe with his rack he'll play at 12D instead next turn. That play is PETIT at M9.
>Kurt: DK D9 D..K +18 140
>JD: ?AEMNOT 14A MANTOEs +90 235
#note as it turns out, he was going to play TROAK at O11 next anyway.
>Kurt: DOU 15A UDO +29 169
>JD: FJLLNRZ M9 R.F.LL +20 255
#note The J and Z can be great ammo to respond if Kurt bingos.
>Kurt: EEGIILN 9I BY +26 195
>Kurt: EEGIILN -- -26 169
>JD: EHIJNOZ I5 JOHN +30 285
#note I should know from earlier that he has an A on his rack, so JOHN at I5 sets up BAY for 38 immediately. But I should also get pretty big comebacks on column Z, and blocking the S hook and the easiest lane on the board (row 7) seems worthwhile.
>Kurt: ABY J4 BAY +38 207
>JD: DEIIRVZ K1 VIZIR +58 343
>Kurt: AEEGSTY 2F GAYET.ES +68 275

>JD: DEELOSX 1M EXO +33 444
>Kurt: IV 9B VI. +8 331
>JD: DEFLNSU 5I ...L +11 455
#note the correct play, none of Kurt's bingos play, and DEFNSU yields INFUSED, FONDUES and REFUNDS (Kurt has the A clearly)
>Kurt: AINOORT O3 .AITRON +33 364
>JD: DEFNRSU 4B REFUNDS +89 544
>JD: (challenge) +5 549
