>Samuel_Kaplan: AAEEMOR -AEO +0 0
#note 8D MORAE is interesting to think about, but I decided to go for a bingo. My play isn't too much worse than MORAE, it is 2nd.
>David_Engehardt: ILLTW 8D TWILL +18 18
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEGMNRU D3 ARGEN.UM +72 72
#note I saw this, ARGUMENT, and GERANIUM but this is much safer than ARGUMENT despite the 2 point sacrifice.
>David_Engehardt: ABDERSU I2 DAUBERS +71 89
#note 5A SUBGRADE is David's best play here. EARBUDS also plays at I2 for 1 more. I still would have bingoed next turn regardless.
>Samuel_Kaplan: ADEGNRT F3 TREAD.NG +66 138
#note Holy crap I did not see 6B GR(E)ATEN(E)D. That play is sick. I did this over GRADIENT to not give back an S hook, and I did this over REDATING and DERATING to not allow lucrative cheap plays in Column E.
>David_Engehardt: AANO E10 ANOA +14 103
>Samuel_Kaplan: EHHLMOS H1 HOLM +48 186
#note Best play!
>David_Engehardt: EX J5 EX +54 157
>Samuel_Kaplan: DEEHINS K2 HIED +28 214
#note Tough spot here. I ultimately decided to dig for the blanks over fishing here with C3 HE, the lanes in ANOA are the only good lanes so might as well set up another one while accomplishing more tile turnover. Lots of plays are reasonable here.
>David_Engehardt: CETV 12D C.VET +22 179
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?AEINPS 13G rAPINES +75 289
#note Wasn't doing SAPIENT because of the S hook, but I unfortunately chickened out of NAPPIES. #knowledgemedium
>David_Engehardt: EY C3 YE +22 201
#note Nice play by David here setting up another distinct lane.
>Samuel_Kaplan: DEIORTV L8 DERIV. +24 313
#note H6 VOLT is better. Board is open as is, probably shouldn't be too concerned with blocking. #strategysmall
>David_Engehardt: FZ J12 F.Z +35 236
>Samuel_Kaplan: FGIIOTY 10J FO.TY +27 340
#note GIFT would have done the job on the right side and is best play by far. Mine is 4th.
>David_Engehardt: EQRU N6 QUER. +37 273
#note He would not have been able to score this much with his Q after GIFT.
>Samuel_Kaplan: CGIIKPU 2K .ICK +26 366
>David_Engehardt: OW 1N OW +21 294
#note He's up to something now.
>Samuel_Kaplan: GIIOPTU 8L .I.T +15 381
#note G1 UPO
>David_Engehardt: BIO O4 OBI +17 311
>Samuel_Kaplan: GIJOPTU 2A JUT +26 407
#note Should have gotten myself out of the mess last turn. At least I did this turn.
>David_Engehardt: ?AINRSS 14B RAiSINS +76 387
#note Nice play David!
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAEGIOP A1 A.I +30 437
#note At least I can outrun. Whew.
>David_Engehardt: ELNOO M2 .OOL +12 399
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEGOP 15A PEG +23 460
#note Got the most points out of this endgame, not that it was that difficult, but still.
>David_Engehardt: EN 15H EN +18 417
#note He had EN at 15H for 3 more.

Good in the beginning, DERIVE was meh, FORTY was meh, DIET was just bad. I think this was a good one for the most part.
>David_Engehardt: (AO) +4 421
