>BJ: EEHIQUZ 11G .IQUE +32 58
#note Dang, QUI(N)ZHEE. I hemmed and hawed for a long time on this one. Definitely considered the possibility of extending PIQUE to REPIQUE later on.
>Richard_B: AABGORT K4 ABROGAT. +72 138
>BJ: EEHKRUZ L1 KUEH +42 100
#note KUEH is best.
>Richard_B: HLOU 8K .HOUL +39 177
>BJ: EILORUZ 7K .UZO +51 151
#note Yup, best.
>Richard_B: ?ADEIMS 15A MAIDEnS +97 274
#note Guess we won't see OVERPLANT.
>BJ: EEIIILR 11E RE..... +36 187
#note Well. I decided to play RE(PIQUE) and take the horrible leave. Maybe I'd get lucky and not have to exchange next turn.
>Richard_B: BFM 2K B.MF +22 296
>BJ: EIIIJLT -IIIL +0 187
#note Quackle prefers JI(N). Maybe i should have. Since I need points to catch up in this game, I decide to keep the J. Probably not that smart.
>Richard_B: EEN 1L .EEN +33 329
>BJ: DEFIJNT 12K DJIN +37 224
#note Should have played this at L11 for 7 more points. I knew that REPIQUE was a verb. Dummy.
>Richard_B: CEIT N10 CE.TI +26 355
>Richard_B: CEIT -- -26 329
#note I almost let CENTI go. Glad I didn't, I needed this break badly to have a chance here.
>BJ: ACFILTW 14B FLAW +40 264
#note Seems to be the best play.
>Richard_B: ACCE 10B CECA +16 345
>BJ: ?EGILOT F1 LOGIEsT +61 325
#note I had the worst time finding a bingo here. Tried so hard to use the C or E. Only EcLOGIT(E) or EkLOGIT(E) would work there, it turns out.
>Richard_B: ADIP 1E P.AID +24 369
>BJ: ADNNORS O12 NARD +32 357
#note Didn't know RANDON.
>Richard_B: GIOSY 12A YOGIS +29 398
>BJ: EINNORS 13L ON +17 374
#note 7A IRONS(TO)NE! I probably should have tried harder to maybe open another lane or something here ... but where? Maybe not. Feeling desperate.
>Richard_B: IVWY 5D VI.WY +28 426
>BJ: EEINRST 3B INTE.ERS +72 446
#note I saw both STREI(G)NE and INTE(G)ERS. Had to minimize the chances of a bingo in reply by Richard. With all those Ts out there, STREIGNE is tempting, and the S would be a duplicate too. Even if he doesn't bingo, a good enough scoring play in column A wins, so I decided to take my chances with INTEGERS.
>Richard_B: AEIRSTT 4B TEA +22 448
#note Phew. I'm lucky.
>BJ: T L12 ..T +10 456
#note

>BJ: (ISTR) +8 464
#note Pretty amazed and lucky that I won this one. Always fun playing Richard, win or lose.
