>JD: ENOPSUV N1 UPO +24 251
#note many options. the two that outsim this are VENUS at 12A and UVA at 2M. In hindsight I like UVA with the PHI hook available for bingos.
>Puneet: DETU 1D .UTED +18 302
>JD: DEFNNSV D11 FEND +23 274
#note weird play - I can just play VENDS at 12A and leave a much cleaner rack. I ended up keeping that V for a long time...
>Puneet: ABEEISU L1 BEAU.IES +78 380
>JD: CFGINSV A1 FISC +50 324
>JD: AAGINQV (challenge) +5 329
#note if I'd play VENDS correctly, BEAUTIES would've just blocked SCOFFING for 102!
>Puneet: DIKY 14B KI.DY +44 424
>JD: AAGINQV 15A QIN +44 373
#note QIN instead of QI to reach for the blank, and also two Ns left.
>Puneet: COZ A6 COZ +50 474
>JD: ?AAGRTV 8L .TAG +15 388
#note need to threaten a big bingo, so I held onto the V and threatened a 100+ point bingo on column O.
>Puneet: ABGLNPR F13 G.P +9 483
#note hs actual rack - he was trying to block, but he's probably in good shape if he ignores and just plays APOD/PRO
>JD: ?AENRVY H8 .VERYmAN +101 489
>JD: I (challenge) +5 494
#note here we go!
>Puneet: ABLLNOR G11 OBA +19 502
#note technically he's supposed to win here. He has to find a long play - no mean task under time pressure! Unfortunately, he challenged because we had the score as 483-498 against him due to math errors, and he didn't realize that playing OBA would've been a tie, giving him second place in tournament!! Over the board I saw TOLLBAR, but not ALLOBAR, which is the other winning play.
>JD: I 15F .I. +5 499
#note phew!
>JD: (LLNR) +8 507
