#note this is a very educational move, and the one play this tournament that made me decide to practice subword finding again. scrabble is a tough game. the more close to perfect you can play, the better you can control your fate. in this game, keeping LP made me consonant heavy for 7 or 8 turns in a row; such a small difference made me lose by a ton. it's only a 3.5-pt error or so, but it's important to find OXLIP here.

#note maybe i should play M3 VELDTS or L1 VELDT? i should have considered them at least, VELDT at 3I was an auto-play for me. -2

#note note that this is better than HAH because AQ have significantly more synergy than EQ.

#note brutal move. i had TRANQS lined up there, now he's probably going to bingo and he blocked a huge play for me that dumps the Q.
>matty_g: AEGINRT M9 TEARING +77 218
#note he laid down ARGENTI(NE) first, which i preferred
>cesar: AGLNRST 1M .AT +36 167
#note notice that i'm still consonant heavy because of stupid AXIOM.

>cesar: AGILNRS L12 .L +4 171
#note 15H GALING or ARGLING there is better. omg, what am i doing? ARGLING puts me down by only 40-something with the S, maybe i can bingo next turn. no need to make this ridiculous fish. i don't even bingo that much after it. -8
