>Bernie_McMahon: FKNU H7 FUNK +22 22
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEGIINS 7G I. +6 6
#note Did not spot (FUNK)IA, that is definitely better. This is not bad tho, I do keep a nice 6 tile leave too.
>Bernie_McMahon: EEGRT F6 GREET +18 40
>Samuel_Kaplan: AAEGINS 10H .IANG +12 18
#note Just AA at I9 is fine.
>Bernie_McMahon: HILL E9 HILL +21 61
>Samuel_Kaplan: ?AEEOSU D3 AEnEOUS +70 88
#note Saw my play in 4 different spots, 12D A(L)EhOUSE, and K7 EUp(N)OEAS. This scores fine without inducing too much volatility.
>Bernie_McMahon: EOTV 13B VETO +22 83
>Samuel_Kaplan: AEHIIRS B11 HI.E +20 108
#note 12C HILI is reasonable too but I have the hooks and Bernie can't address both openings at the same time.
>Bernie_McMahon: MMO A10 MOM +22 105
>Samuel_Kaplan: AIIRSST 11G IS +14 122
#note As much as I hate obvious S telegraphs, it's necessary here.
>Bernie_McMahon: JO 6B JO. +26 131
>Samuel_Kaplan: AIIRSTX 4C S.XTARII +66 188
#note Best play!
>Bernie_McMahon: AFGOT 3G FAGOT +33 164
#note Nice play Bernie!
>Samuel_Kaplan: AENNOPT L5 PENTA.ON +74 262
#note Finding bingoes always helps.
>Bernie_McMahon: BY A14 BY +25 189
>Samuel_Kaplan: ACDOPRY 2J PARDY +47 309
#note Glad to see something at 2J starting with the P. Q likes PARODY over PARDY, but I don't need to give anything back when I'm ahead.
>Bernie_McMahon: OWW M11 WOW +25 214
>Samuel_Kaplan: BCEEINO H1 BE.. +18 327
#note Why not go for another bingo?
>Bernie_McMahon: ACD C1 CAD. +20 234
>Samuel_Kaplan: ACEINOV 8J OC.AVE +33 360
#note I looked for a while thru the C in CADS and only saw VICE there. This play is best.
>Bernie_McMahon: EZ 6J ZE. +32 266
>Samuel_Kaplan: DEINQRR 1C .INQ +16 376
#note My only fear in this position was not having a way of getting rid of the Q. I realized that if I don't draw a U or an I (3/13 chance of drawing either of those), then I'm screwed as I thought Bernie had the S and most likely the blank after WOW. This is why I passed up RICED/DICER at 1A. This is best.
>Bernie_McMahon: LL C13 .LL +8 274
>Samuel_Kaplan: DERRTUU N10 TED +16 392
#note Rough draw. I know Bernie's gonna bingo out with this insanely nice pool. The question was how to block the E in OCTAVE and get the most points out of this garbage. As much as my options suck, I think I made the right call here.
>Bernie_McMahon: ?ADINRS 14G RaDIANS +69 343
#note Bernie's best out bingo is 15C (L)ANIaRDS.

I think KIANG could have been done over again, I didn't wanna fish a 2nd time in a row but sometimes that's the play. Besides that, I did fine in this one.
>Bernie_McMahon: (ERRUU) +10 353
