#player2 Avery Avery
>Chris: EM - +0 0
#note Exchange 5. He said he kept EM.
>Avery: ABDIMRT H4 MBIRA +24 24
#note Not best on static, but I thought he may not be confident enough to put an S on it.
>Chris: AAEIMTT I4 MAT +17 17
#note AMARETTI plays.
>Avery: DDLORTV G6 TOLD +16 40
>Chris: AEINORT -O +0 17
#note AMMINO is cool
>Avery: DGQRTUV -DGQRTUV +0 40
#note Considered something unconventional like I8 GUV since I didn't think he had an S, but the downside is so great, so I threw them all back.
>Chris: AEINRTU I8 TAURINE +62 79
>Avery: EEIIOST H12 OI +8 48
#note Might be better to play this at H14, but if he didn't get an S, the hook becomes hard to deal with.
>Chris: ABGGRUW 13E WAG..G +13 92
#note He put down URGING for a second, but changed it to this.
>Avery: DEEISTX 15F EXISTED +109 157
>Chris: BHRTV F10 THR.V. +22 114
>Avery: ACEGORS E5 CARGOES +102 259
>Chris: ?BLLNOU 11B BLU.. +10 124
#note BABUL is nice. I thought he was setting up the ABLUSH hook, but he didn't know it.
>Avery: ?FFIIJZ 5H ..FF +24 283
#note Should probably deal with the ABLUSH hook with B11 BIFF. This is a pretty weak play.
>Chris: ?EHLNOU L11 HOUN. +18 142
#note He has one bingo here!
>Avery: ?EIIJNZ B9 JI. +14 297
#note There's M10 ZEIN, 12A ZEIN, and this. First, I missed aZINE/ABLUSH completely. But barring that, I probably should be playing M10 ZEIN immediately to block a huge bingo lane, but the upside of this is pretty big since it sets up the immediate 12A ZEIN for 65, in addition to blocking the B and L and the ABLUSH hook. He's not guaranteed to have a high scoring response to column M anyway. This also has the upside of becoming -IZE bingos that play on column M when he doesn't hit it. I think this is a really interesting position, but my play weaker than both spots for ZEIN.
>Chris: ?CEEELS M8 CELEStE +79 221
#note Amazingly, K5 FLEECHES plays for 86. I noted postgame that L1 CELESTE is a little better since he needs all the space he can get.
>Avery: ?EINORZ 12A ZEIN +65 362
>Chris: EKR A12 .ERK +51 272
>Avery: ?ADOOQR 10H Q.OD +16 378
>Chris: DIV C11 ..VID +18 290
>Avery: ?AINOOR C3 AmORINO +76 454
>Chris: OW 8M .OW +24 314
>Avery: AEILNTY D3 AY +20 474
#note Correctly determined that the only 3 bingos remaining in the pool were EUPEPSY, APPEASE and EUPNEAS, and they don't play after this, so I went for broke and also blocked high scoring Y plays at D4.
>Chris: APPSU L1 PUPAS +37 351
>Avery: EEEILNT M2 NEE +18 492
#note Missed LEPTIN somehow.
>Chris: ANY 2D NAY +20 371
>Chris: (LITE) +8 379
