#note I was feeling absolutely ecstatic here. I decided not to play 3B OAF because how I lose this game is by opening the board for Thomas. If this game had been played in the beginning half of the tournament I would have played OAF in a heartbeat. Quackle really likes OAF but I couldn't disagree more. #Quackletacticsmedium

>Joshua_Sokol: ACDELNU 11C UNCA.LED +72 272
#note 96% to win, but this turn called for more than combinatorics. DULC(I)NEA is two more points, and I don't really see why I shouldn't play DULC(I)NEA. #findingsmall

I spent most of my time on this turn trying to figure out how to block his 3x3 in a strategically sound manner, but DUNE H12 did not come to mind. That would have been a lifesaver.
>Thomas_Reinke: ?EEGOVY 15A lEVOGY.E +185 317
#note It was at this moment where you could see a giant human being become nothing but a small fly on the wallpaper.
>Joshua_Sokol: DELQRTT H7 Q.T +14 286
#note I considered just dropping the Q at H3, but not only would that not have gotten me rattled with an a draw, it would have also gotten me quite rattled at his next play that Q(A)T blocked.
>Thomas_Reinke: IINSTUZ H1 ZIT. +39 356
#note UNITIZ(E)S blocked, but Thomas gets me back for it later.
>Joshua_Sokol: ADEGLRT I6 DA. +24 310
#note 10% to win, fish the g?
>Thomas_Reinke: AMNU 12I MAUN +19 375
>Joshua_Sokol: EEGLNRT 13K NEG +12 322
#note 13I ENTER might be correct here. I inferred he had the last D so I thought setting up an S he was less likely to have was the way to go. Could be led to believe otherwise. My bingo is also unlikely to get me there after NEG, so I should be scoring. #tacticsmedium
>Thomas_Reinke: IKSSY N10 KISSY +49 424
>Joshua_Sokol: ELPRSTV M3 V..LE +18 340
#note C1 VER(B)S must be the play here. Score and pry open more of the board. I had checked out. #tacticssmall
>Thomas_Reinke: AAH 12B AHA +21 445
#note soul-crushing
>Joshua_Sokol: FOPRSTU 10I FOP +24 364
#note I had SPORTFU(L) A8 for a small chance, but Thomas' wizardry gave him 4th place.
