>Reid_Hattaway: ADETTV H4 VATTED +28 28
>Matt_Canik: EGMNNOY 5H .GONY +18 18
#note Everything is super close here but sim prefers MANGY and MANGEY by about 2 here #strategysmall
>Reid_Hattaway: ?IKLOOR 8A ROOtLIK. +83 111
>Matt_Canik: AEEGIMN 9G A.EEMING +72 90
#note Saw this and LIEGEMAN, which score the same, and had no idea which would be better. Sim prefers my play, huzzah.
>Reid_Hattaway: FRRU L1 FURR. +30 141
>Matt_Canik: CEELMNO 10J MENO +30 120
#note COLLEEN is a nice word that I didn't know #knowledgesad (actually a sim prefers MENO ever-so-slightly but I'm still docking myself)
>Reid_Hattaway: AOZ 8L ZOA +50 191
>Matt_Canik: ACDELLO D3 COLLA.ED +70 190
#note good thing I didn't play COLLEEN i guess
>Reid_Hattaway: ASUV 11H VAUS +29 220
>Matt_Canik: AAINRRT 1K A.RIT +24 214
#note I like closed boards and all, but I'm not sure this is the position where I should be happily closing. I didn't even look for plays down from the V even though they score more because I'm blind to opening closed boards. Plays like this make me "me" but I don't think that makes them right... (V)ARNA holding IRT looks pretty damn solid. #findingsad
>Reid_Hattaway: CFL B6 FL.C +17 237
>Matt_Canik: AEENRWY 3I WEA.Y +30 244
#note Seems fine, though other plays are close too
>Reid_Hattaway: IP 6H .IP +24 261
>Matt_Canik: EHNRTTX 12K HENT +23 267
#note Wasn't really a fan of giving Reid easy and obvious underlaps to HEX, especially with 5 unseen Is and two unseen Us at this stage in the game. Sim still prefers HEX by about a point and HENT sets up sad possibilities if he's got one of the three unseen esses though. #tacticssad maybe but I'd probably do it again unless someone smart tells me not to
>Reid_Hattaway: IQ A5 QI +16 277
>Matt_Canik: EGIRTUX 13L XU +31 298
>Reid_Hattaway: HOP 2H POH +34 311
#note Oh this is bad now

>Matt_Canik: AEGIIRT H11 .IGIA +30 328
#note I feel like I have no choice now but to open things up since he set up 1H plays that I don't have. also tons of equity here
>Reid_Hattaway: ?BINSTW 15C WINgB.TS +63 374
#note Absolutely and horribly inexcusable. This is invalid and I held for a while, unable to remember if BATWING or WINGBAT* is valid. I remembered that Reid had a history of knowing a lot of words and I know that I don't know anything at all and eventually accept and make the spread-cutting move but WINGBATS* ISN'T A WORD ASDAFSD

Literally when the only way to lose is to accept a word that looks funny to you, you should probably challenge that word. Guhhhhhh. This is one of many, many times where I show absolutely no faith in my word knoweldge this tournament.

#knowledgesaddest #tacticssaddest (idk if I can tag two things but I'll try)
>Matt_Canik: EEJRRST 3A EJE.T +28 356
#note Still had no idea what to play but missed the killer JESTER at O10, which gives me a 15% chance per Quackle. I'm so fixated on bingoing or trying to score a ton by drawing OU out of the bag but idk. man this game was so sloppy and this is why I'll never be good at scrabble #findingsadder
>Reid_Hattaway: DNU 1G DUN +30 404
>Matt_Canik: BEIORRS F3 SORB +27 383
#note RESORB #endgamesad
>Reid_Hattaway: ADEES O1 .EASED +8 412
