#note att 1-2 i have no hope of making the cold equity play here -- as i said in an earlier game i either am too scared to not bingo immediately, or too scared to fall behind in score, depending on the rack (usually the wrong choice for the rack). PIING or PIG are fine here, but i'm too scared. -3 #strategysmall

#note i had a very bad feeling about his rack based on my last couple of games, and knew i needed to race to the blanks and S (SWILE, two blanks unseen, etc). i thought i should block a few lanes. of course it's an overreaction to blow up this nice rack for 20 pts only when i can do L1 KAMI, which decently blocks the T as well but keeps a much better leave. 4B CINEMA is another very nice alternative. this is clearly me being scared and overreacting to the way this tournament is going. -7 #strategymedium

#note didn't write down the rest of my rack, but can't imagine this being wrong. i'm pretty sure i had the blank too.

>cesar: ?ALORTY A1 ROYALs +34 419
#note i did think of faradays the turn before but forgot about it for this turn. still i want to block AVISOS here and ROYALs is the best move by 5 pts.
