>Chris_Kulig: IQ 8G QI +22 22
#note 2023 Word Cup Main Event Round 6.
>Jonathan_Lindh: CGHMNTT H6 TH.NG +9 9
#note H7 GITCH for 11 is best here. THING isn't that far back though. It also induced an exchange.
>Chris_Kulig: INRTVVY - +0 22
#note Exchange 7. Not actual rack.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACMORTX 10H .OX +27 36
#note Best.
>Chris_Kulig: ?AEIMNO 6F ME.ANOIa +67 89
#note None of spotted 9F MINNEOLA for 86 post-mortem. That's a crazy find. I briefly held this and realeased. Had Chris done MINNEOLAS, I still would have had MARCATOS.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ACMORST L1 ACROT.SM +82 118
#note Pleased with this find. Probably the best bingo.
>Chris_Kulig: BNSU 11H SNUB +33 122
>Jonathan_Lindh: BEEIIPR 2J BI.EP +34 152
#note Best.
>Chris_Kulig: GGI 8L .IGG +24 146
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEIOPRU 1F PERIA +25 177
#note Should play something like N8 GROUPIE for 24. I tunneled on this spot and missed other opportunities on the board. This is also phony, confused it with PEREA. Chris held and released.
>Chris_Kulig: DFI 9F FI.D +29 175
>Jonathan_Lindh: ENORTUU N1 U.O +5 182
#note Iffy play.
>Chris_Kulig: DELLLO 2B LOLLED +27 202
>Jonathan_Lindh: EHNORTU 5B ROUTH +23 205
#note Another iffy play. 3F THOU for 28 is better here.
>Chris_Kulig: AETZ 1A ZETA +49 251
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?CEENOU B5 .EnOUNCE +63 268
#note Only bingo. I felt I needed to bingo here. The pool is kind of clunky and the board is fairly closed.
>Chris_Kulig: ARW A6 RAW +36 287
#note Chris mentioned he was afraid of J bombs, which is very understandable.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DELRSVW A12 WELD +45 313
#note Best.
>Chris_Kulig: AIKV O3 KIVA +18 305
>Jonathan_Lindh: AENRSTV 3C TEAR +24 337
#note This is a very hard position. I thought blowing up this rack and taking out the C3 spot was best given the pool. That's probably the biggest scoring spot left. Something like C4 NOVAE for 24 or C4 NOVA for 17 do the same thing and keep a more flexible leave.
>Chris_Kulig: IJO N8 .OJI +28 333
>Jonathan_Lindh: ENNSVYY C12 ENVY +26 363
#note Was not expecting to draw both Y's. I make by far the best play. This is 80.30% to win and the next best play is 64.02% to win. Watch what happens next.
>Chris_Kulig: AADEEIS D9 ASIDE +30 363
#note Brutal draw for me. ASIDE is Chris' best play and one of 4 wins for him. D8 IDEAS for 28, D8 AIDES for 28, and 14A LEVIED for 28 are Chris' other wins. B14 AE for 23 ties. Nice find by Chris!
>Jonathan_Lindh: FNRSTY O11 FRY +15 378
#note I searched for a win, but there isn't any. I also missed the 18 point FRY at 3H. My play is 2nd best and 3 points back.
>Chris_Kulig: AE B14 AE +23 386
#note Best. Well played endgame by Chris.
>Chris_Kulig: (NST) +6 392
#note This would be the first of a few really unlucky endgame draws on my end.
