>Kenji: EEILOOT 8H LOOIE +12 12
#note This is quite bad. Jeff's not someone I really want to get into a shootout against, and this is just gonna lead to a lot of open boards that I don't really want. I really should just throw this rack away against this player. If I am going to play LOOIE, I need to play it at 8d, not 8h. I know this doesn't look like a big deal, but it really, really is.

#note I'm not really sure here. Jeff's range is obviously reasonably good here, but what can I really do? UNAI doesn't really kill the bottom well enough and this isn't a great board for AILR but it really might be my best option. Maybe REALIA, but the bottom lines are so open and if Jeff gets there (likely) I'm in pretty rough shape.

#note Missed OXALIC. Even RADIX is probably better in this situation vs. this opponent. What am I really trying to hit? At this point I just have to give up on outplaying Jeff on a dead board: I really missed my opportunity by making shitty plays like LOOIE.

#note Best play is actually DRUG first, keeping JEEZ (with JEE as backup) and FOXY after FOX. Kinda tilted this endgame, just mad how I let yet another game that I probably should've won slip away. I know this probably doesn't look that bad to the naked eye, but this is a good example of the type of game you just gotta win if you're gonna win Nationals.

#note Careless tilted play here too.
