>Samuel_Kaplan: GIPRRST 8D GRIPT +20 20
#note Considered GRIP, PRIG, and GRIPT. GRIP takes too many hooks, and I decided that the 6 points for GRIPT over PRIG was worth it given my consonant-heavy rack. This is best.
>Joanne_Cohen: ?CDEGIO H3 GEODe.IC +62 62
#note Joanne told me she wasn't sure of RECODInG after the game. Still a very nice find though.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AELNRSU 5D NEUR.SAL +82 102
#note Saw several playable bingoes on this board but mine easily is best.
>Joanne_Cohen: ABDEHT 6C BATHE. +39 101
#note That is #boardvisionsolid right there on her part.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAILOOS 4C AAL +15 117
#note Nope. Scores OK but leave sucks. Maybe 9G AIOLI?
>Joanne_Cohen: DLOT 6J DOLT +18 119
>Samuel_Kaplan: EIOORSV 3H .ROOVE +22 139
#note 2nd best
>Joanne_Cohen: MUV 3A VUM +24 143
>Samuel_Kaplan: INOPSSW N1 WISP +29 168
#note I did not think GEODETIC took an S. It does. I would have done SWOP at 11H if I knew that hook. We would both be unsure of that the whole game. 8th best play here.
>Joanne_Cohen: AGINRTU 10H .URATING +65 208
>Samuel_Kaplan: LNOORST 1K TRO.L +27 195
>Samuel_Kaplan: LNOORST -- -27 168
#note This phony is pretty much where I lost the game.
>Joanne_Cohen: ABD 1L BA.D +39 247
>Samuel_Kaplan: LNOORST O4 ORLON +23 191
#note Meh. Scores the same but it doesn't do anything with my S under the impression that GEODETICS wasn't good. 3rd best. LOGON is the move.
>Joanne_Cohen: ITY A1 TI.Y +42 289
>Samuel_Kaplan: EFNSTXZ K9 F.ZE +32 223
#note Saw a variety of good plays but now is the time to set my S up. I figured the I in CURATING might get blocked eventually so I need a lane for myself.
>Joanne_Cohen: IQ 9M QI +44 333
#note Lol
>Samuel_Kaplan: DFNOSTX 12H FOX.S +38 261
#note Nope. FOXED in the same spot. Doh. 4th best.
>Joanne_Cohen: EJW 13G JEW +39 372
#note Nice defensive play by Joanne here. I got very lucky on my next draw.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?CDENNT 14F CoNTEND +87 348
#note See what I mean? I didn't deserve this with a couple not so great plays so far.
>Joanne_Cohen: AEH 15J HAE +18 390
>Samuel_Kaplan: EIKMORU 14F .......ER +22 370
#note She wasn't keeping the Y after HAE, so first, I didn't see any plays from the G in CURATING. There aren't any. Now then, playing 2I OM loses the game on the spot because she's gonna block Row 1 any day. The only way I could maybe pull this off is if I draw the S for a play along Column O and outrun with 2I plays. I also set up a nice scoring play along Row M if she has the S for FENS at the bottom. Turns out, she had the last S.
>Joanne_Cohen: ES 15G ES +36 426
#note And that pretty much seals my fate.
>Samuel_Kaplan: AIKMOUY 13M YAK +32 402
#note This guarantees me a 2 lucrative plays in a row.
>Joanne_Cohen: AEEIIN 1A .INEA +6 432
#note Joanne's best play here is GENII D8. Not that I have any wins at this point.
>Samuel_Kaplan: IMOU 2I OM +22 424
#note That was exactly the purpose of playing YAK on the previsou turn.
>Joanne_Cohen: EI D8 .IE +4 436
#note How I came back the way I did after TROWL* is pretty good. TROWL*, not seeing LOGON when I played ORLON, and FOXES were critical errors. Joanne definitely deserved this one over me. Well done!
>Joanne_Cohen: (IU) +4 440
