>Jonathan_Lindh: AAEIOST -AIO +0 0
#note 2023 Word Cup Main Event Round 5. Should have traded AAO. Very minor mistake but this cost me a bingo to start off with. EIST>AEST by a very small margin.
>Joe_Edley: FOY 8G FOY +18 18
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACESSTX J8 SAX +36 36
#note Best. When I saw this rack come up, I immediately saw I would have had COEXISTS if I kept EIST. These types of small mistakes can be very costly at the Division 1 major tournament level.
>Joe_Edley: EOOPV 9C POOVE +20 38
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACELNST E5 LACT.NES +90 126
#note I almost goofed and played the 72 point LACTONES. At the last moment before I was about to hit my clock, I shifted it over one column to the right. 18 more points. This is best.
>Joe_Edley: EIKM K9 MIKE +33 71
>Jonathan_Lindh: BEERRTT 6D B.TTERER +64 190
#note I backed out of playing BETTERER* at the last possible moment and went with this play. This seems correct.
>Joe_Edley: AEOZ 12A ZOEA. +48 119
>Jonathan_Lindh: DHILNST A12 .INS +39 229
#note Normally playing an N instead of a T is right, but not in this case. ZITS is slightly better than ZINS because of the numerous front ZINS extensions.
>Joe_Edley: FRTU L12 TURF +26 145
>Jonathan_Lindh: DHILPTT 15L .LIP +27 256
>Joe_Edley: AINNOW 5J WANION +27 172
>Jonathan_Lindh: DDHINTT O5 .INTH +24 280
>Joe_Edley: MNOU 8A MOUN. +31 203
>Jonathan_Lindh: DDEEGTU B10 GE.DE +29 309
#note Really happy to find this play.
>Joe_Edley: ?EEGGIR - +0 203
#note Exchange 7. Not actual rack.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACDILTU N10 TULAD. +18 327
#note Right idea, wrong execution. I need to block in the M or the N columns. Two lines must be addressed, bingos going through the R on row 14 and the I on column M. TULADI does both of these things, but DUCAT scores 9 more points and blocks column M more completely. That's the play.
>Joe_Edley: JO 4K JO +32 235
>Jonathan_Lindh: ABCDGIW 3L WIG +20 347
>Joe_Edley: ?ADEIRR A2 AIRDRo.E +61 296
#note B1 PRERADIO for 74 is the best bingo here.
>Jonathan_Lindh: BCDGIQR M9 QI +23 370
>Joe_Edley: EY D12 .YE +6 302
>Jonathan_Lindh: BCDEGHR 14D .RG +8 378
>Joe_Edley: UV N1 VU. +14 316
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?ABCDEH 1L HA.E +42 420
#note 1K CHIVE or CHEVY for 48 are best here.
>Joe_Edley: AAEILOS 15F OLEA +15 331
#note 14J OARED is 6 points better.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?BCD B1 CaD +15 435
#note 13K DUCAT for 26 is best here. My play is 11 back. I think i doubted DUCAT the whole game.
>Joe_Edley: AIS 13F AIS +8 339
#note 4A RIAS is 14 and best.
>Joe_Edley: (B) +6 345
#note Final score recorded as 433-345. I underscored BATTERER by 2 points.
