>skaplan31: GHIILOO 8H IGLOO +14 14
#note Rd 6 of Philly virtual 1-30-2021. While I won't have a shot of winning the tourney, I can at least move up some spots in the standings with a win here as 4 people were all 3-2. I can sneak my way into 3rd at best as I was 5th of 6 going into this one.

On this play, I needed turnover here and I found it.
>parteegirl: ENRRRRU I8 .RR +5 5
#note Gotta love someone drawing 4 Rs! I'd exchange RRRU here, her options do suck now and leaving ENRRU won't end up too well that often.
>skaplan31: AGHITUY K7 T.UGHY +26 40
#note This makes for a quieter board over L8 or K8 OUGIYA or 10F HAIRY. She's gonna have to open up for cheap if she doesn't have a bingo.
>parteegirl: AEENRRU L11 EAR +21 26
#note Looks fine to me.
>skaplan31: AEEILVZ 10D LAZIE. +35 75
#note I think this provides the right balance between scoring and not being reckless with moves like 10K GLAZE.
>parteegirl: ?AEHNRU 14H HUmANER +72 98
#note None of her bingoes are particularly "safe" here so I think D8 RE(L)AUNcH is fine here, which is her highest scoring bingo. It does fork nicely with there being only 1 G left.
>skaplan31: EIJOOTV 15E JIVE +57 132
#note I mean, come on now, I gotta take this spot.
>parteegirl: ACDEIQV F14 Q. +31 129
>skaplan31: EOOOSTX 11D OX +38 170
#note Gotta take this spot too.
>parteegirl: ACDEIVY C11 CAVY +36 165
#note Her best play too
>skaplan31: ENOOPST 12B N.PE +32 202
>parteegirl: DEIITTU 15M TED +16 181
#note F8 TIZ is a great fish for her.
>skaplan31: DEEOOST I13 O.D +21 223
#note B14 OE opens up a nice scoring spot that Connie will easily cover. Even if I don't hit a bingo next turn, I can still fish for one.
>parteegirl: CIIILTU 14A IC. +16 197
>skaplan31: BEENOST M4 BONESET +68 291
#note Worked out well for me.
>parteegirl: AIILSTU 11C ...A +24 221
>skaplan31: ?AEFIST 7B FIxATES +63 354
#note And I run into another situation of whether to bingo or not. I understand Q might also like L1 FETA for 30. I'm up by a lot, keep the pressure on. SEAlIFT gives back so much more than this one, and her floaters aren't that good with this one. I could also do TAFfIES in the same spot to give her 1 less option to work with, but an X is just even more difficult to play through than an F.
>parteegirl: BIILSTU 6A LIB +18 239
>skaplan31: AFIKMPS L1 PIKA +34 388
#note I did not know A1 MISKAL for 51. Maybe A13 KIF is better.
>parteegirl: IRRSTUU 1H IRRU.T +24 263
>skaplan31: EFIMMSW 6E MEW +23 411
>parteegirl: ADNOSUW 5D DAW +30 293
>skaplan31: EEFILMS 4A FILE +28 439
#note Keeping the M for better scoring options next turn for the endgame.
>parteegirl: ADNOOSU N13 O.. +3 296
#note This is a fine time to fish as I think she was going for ADNOUNS or SOUDANS in 2 spots.
>skaplan31: EGMNNST 3B GEM +25 464
>parteegirl: ADNOOSU O8 SOUDAN +26 322
#note N1 SNOOD is better for her because she does have 2 out plays with AU.
>skaplan31: NNST 12B ....S +19 483
#note Mhm
>parteegirl: O 3K O. +6 328
#note Feels nice to finish 3-3 after starting 0-3. Can't afford to dig myself a hole like I did early on. Well, part of that is my fault the first game.
