>Samuel_Kaplan: ?CFGJLY -FGJLY +0 0
#note Q wants me to keep CLY? or CL? over C?. -LY is good to have but I wanna bingo ASAP early in the game so I do wanna have a shot at a vowel. Thoughts?
>Jim_Fonti: AEOTV 8D OVATE +18 18
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?ACEHRV D6 AV.uCHER +80 80
#note CHiVARE(E) for 107 just wasn't quite coming up in my brain. Knew it, just didn't see it. This is a good play but CHiVAREE is clearly better. Surprisingly, this got challenged. I did not know REVAnCH(E). This is tied for 4th with HAV(O)CkER.
>Jim_Fonti: AIINOOY - +0 18
#note AVOUCHER was challenged. Not actual rack.
>Samuel_Kaplan: EHNNTTU 11D .UNH +20 100
#note Knowing Jim challenged me last turn, I wanted to goad him into hooking an S onto HUNH to further destroy his confidence. It didn't exactly work. I did see the best play, 7F HUNT.
>Jim_Fonti: DEEJ C3 JEED +27 45
>Samuel_Kaplan: EEFNTTU 4A FE.T +22 122
#note This play is best!
>Jim_Fonti: AIK A1 KAI. +33 78
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?ENTTUW H2 UNWETT.d +64 186
#note oUTWENT 12G is best. This is the only 8 that plays, but still.
>Jim_Fonti: IT B1 IT +14 92
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAALOSS 14B AAS +22 208
#note Yep. This is best.
>Jim_Fonti: EGY 15A GEY +28 120
>Samuel_Kaplan: AILOOOS D2 OO. +12 220
#note 2nd best. I4 OLIO is 5 more.
>Jim_Fonti: EMOOORS - +0 120
#note Not actual rack. Exchange 4
>Samuel_Kaplan: ADILOPS 5G S.PALOID +72 292
#note Hell yes! Only playable bingo with this rack. This does not take an S.
>Jim_Fonti: EMOOORS - +0 120
#note Jim instantly challenged this. I would make him pay for it on the next play.
>Samuel_Kaplan: GIIMNOY 3F IG.OMINY +84 376
#note Shebam! There you have it.
>Jim_Fonti: EIPST 13C P.IEST +34 154
>Samuel_Kaplan: BFIMORW 6H .OW +31 407
#note Just keep scoring, just keep scoring.
>Jim_Fonti: IX 14F XI +52 206
>Samuel_Kaplan: BEFIMRR 15G BRIEF +35 442
#note Mhm
>Jim_Fonti: CELNORS L9 CLONERS +82 288
#note Or CORNELS in the same spot for him.
>Samuel_Kaplan: DGMNQRU 13J QU.RN +28 470
#note Bad miss of F6 QUAD. I was too focused on shedding consonants. My play is 6th.
>Jim_Fonti: ALL 7J ALL +9 297
>Samuel_Kaplan: BDEGNOR N10 BOR.E +26 496
>Jim_Fonti: EINZ O7 ZINE +43 340
>Samuel_Kaplan: AADGM 2K GAMA +26 522
#note 2F MAUD. This is 2nd under the circumstances.
>Jim_Fonti: DRU 6C ..D +5 345
#note Jim missed his out play of 11I DURO.
>Samuel_Kaplan: D 8D .....D +10 532
#note Phony. Only NOVATE takes a D or S back hook. OVATE doesn't take any back hooks, only an N front hook.


Bingo finding was pretty good this game, SEPALOID and IGNOMINY were certainly nice ones to spot. The first turn was certainly an interesting choice to keep C? over CL? or CLY?, I tend to favor turnover in a position like that.
