#player2 Avery Avery
>Chris: CDFIIU 8E FUCI +18 18
>Avery: AGRSTXY F7 G.Y +7 7
#note Had no idea what to do here. This seemed to be the most defensive of my options, and I wanted a tighter board against Chris. I hate this option looking at it now, but amazingly, I managed to block FILIATED and CILIATED with one play. Wow.
>Chris: ADEIILT E8 .AILED +25 43
>Avery: ADRSSTX 12D R.TAX +40 47
>Chris: CHIU 13G HUIC +32 75
>Avery: DDEOSSU 11E .UD +13 60
#note Thought about DOCS, but thought I might be able to bingo on row 7 or 9 if he didn't block there.
>Chris: EO 10G OE +10 85
>Avery: ADEEOSS 7H OE +5 65
#note Shrug, maybe I could go all in with ECO now, but he could easily have an S by now.
>Chris: Q 10D Q. +11 96
#note He said he drew QZ after OE.
>Avery: ADEKLSS J11 DE.K +21 86
#note Missed SLACK, which is a big improvement. We're already both down to like 12 minutes.
>Chris: AOZ 6I AZO +34 130
>Avery: AELNSSS L4 LENS +21 107
#note No need to block row 15 since I have 3 S's, so I'd rather just bide my time.
>Chris: BEILMNT K5 B.IL +22 152
>Avery: AERSSSW 15D WRASSES +104 211
>Chris: AEMNNRT - +0 152
>Avery: DIJMOPR C12 POM +29 240
#note Considered blocking row 5 with something like PROM, but this scores well and sets up J plays at B13 with the right picks (like JAR).
>Chris: AEMNNRT 5C REMNANT +71 223
>Avery: ADEIJRW B13 JAW +43 283
>Chris: ?EHILTU D3 UT. +6 229
#note His rack. THURIBLE plays.
>Avery: DEIIORR A14 DO +30 313
#note Could do something like OURIE to block his setup, but it still concedes some bingos, and I'm likely to get counterplay after his bingo, so I'd rather take 30 now and now let him fish here.
>Chris: ?EHILNT 2A NEoLITH +76 305
>Avery: EIINRRV A1 I.NER +18 331
#note Getting pretty low on time, and the pool isn't bad (not to mention the blank unseen), so I opted to block at least one triple. The board is really bad for fishing, so keeping something like EIRV isn't really great. This is a really bad play.
>Chris: EOPRTY 1G OY +20 325
#note He laid down 1E POETRY at first, but saw OT* in time.
>Avery: ?BINRVV G4 V.V +9 340
#note Huge relief to see the blank.
>Chris: EGIOPRT 3H PEROGI +26 351
#note His rack. He laid down TRIGO at first but thought I would see TRIGON, but I didn't even think of it until he told me!
>Avery: ?ABEINR N2 BEARINg +80 420
#note And he didn't know this hook. Unbelievably lucky.
>Chris: AAEGIOT - +0 351
>Avery: FT 12J .FT +12 432
#note It's pretty annoying to know I'm playing so badly yet winning by a lot, but thankfully I know I can fix these holes.
>Avery: (AAEGIOT) +16 448
