>David_Brown: ANOPRT 8D PATRON +22 22
>Matthew_Ridout: ?ADHLUU F6 HU. +14 14
#note DUH 7C best, mine third.

I was more comfortable with an extra consonant in the leave
>David_Brown: CEIV E3 VICE +23 45
>Matthew_Ridout: ?ABDLNU 7I UNBALeD +64 78
#note UNDOABLE and SUBNODAL score just four less and were safer, better.
Because...
>David_Brown: AERY 8L YARE +54 99
#note ...that.
>Matthew_Ridout: EEIMOOR D6 MO.E +16 94
#note MOVIE 3C best. My play -- off the board (not one of CP's top 10 recommendations)
>David_Brown: ABW 9M WAB +30 129
>Matthew_Ridout: EEIORRT 3D O.ERTIRE +63 157
#note only bingo
>David_Brown: EIK H1 KI.E +27 156
>Matthew_Ridout: AAGHLOT 6I GOAL +25 182
#note Maybe this should've been more obvious to me, but I spent a bit of clock here deciding. CP like it best, just above FAIL 2F
>David_Brown: ?EGIORU 10B pIROGUE +70 226
#note Not that he won't bingo with that often anyway, but I knew that weak MOPE play would haunt me.

But no matter, I would find other ways to lose this match hoHO :)
>Matthew_Ridout: AEHINOT H10 .THION +39 221
#note or ETHANE, same spot. Best, but both leave me less than 1/3 chance to win.
>David_Brown: AAMTZ 12H .AZMAT +40 266
>Matthew_Ridout: AEEELNY 11K EYE +27 248
#note EYEN same spot a touch better. I liked keeping the extra consonant in hand once again.

(For my new to Scrabble amigo - EYEN takes no S back hook)
>David_Brown: V N6 V... +14 280
>Matthew_Ridout: AEFILNS 2F FA.L +32 280
#note Missed the bingo. I'll put the answer in the next Note.

SP liked FAIL as best non-bingo at least, but it falls out of top 10 with CP. I'm 39% to win now is all.
>David_Brown: CIS N12 SIC +31 311
#note LIFES(p)AN
>Matthew_Ridout: AEINSUX 15J UNISEX +48 328
#note XU at 4K was tempting, but Quackle didn't like it greatly.

But CP liked AUXIN 4B a step better than my choice. Save the S versus use up that E-hook. Hm.

(52% to win over 59%)
>David_Brown: DELW C9 W.ELD +35 346
>Matthew_Ridout: ADENNQS 13G Q. +21 349
#note The Bedcrapper: Which is more surprising? That:

* I didn't correctly play QADIS 4B for 42 pts
* that QADIS s 66% to win versus just 42% for QADI same spot
* or that QI ranks well below a host of plays that keep the Q?

(I'm now just 11% to win)
>David_Brown: FOP 12B F.OP +18 364
>Matthew_Ridout: ADENNOS L1 NODE +25 374
#note ONLAY L4 37% to win

mine barely top 10 (16% to win)
>David_Brown: DIJR 2A JIRD +27 391
>Matthew_Ridout: AGNST B1 G.ANTS +9 383
#note best play, but that was of little consolation. For my part, sadness reigned,
>Matthew_Ridout: (IST) +6 389
