#note 8C APOGEE missed

#note 13C ARROZ missed :(

#note Since when has K5 TO(N)GMAN been a word?
>Yaacov_Barak: DELN 11D .LEND +30 63
>James_Donnelly: ELRRTTV M5 REV.LT +14 104
#note This seems fine. I prefer blocking the board when I have a mediocre rack. K4 VER(NA)L is a worse version of REV(O)LT and I10 VERT gives back too much
>Yaacov_Barak: EFIQU L1 FIQUE +44 107
>James_Donnelly: CHIIRST H11 .ITCH +36 140
#note Didn't believe in E1 CHRISTI(E). Also, H1 TRICHI(TE)S is crazysauce.
>Yaacov_Barak: JNOS 2J JO.NS +56 163
>James_Donnelly: BDIIORS 5I BID.. +16 156
#note There are simply better options here. N10 ORIBI, setting up the S, seems like the best one.
>Yaacov_Barak: EFH 14F FE.H +20 183
#note This didn't quite look right, but I couldn't muster a challenge
>James_Donnelly: EIOORSX 1N OX +29 185
#note Too many vowels in the pool to be holding 3 of them here. 3H OXO scores a bit less but keeps a more balanced leave.
>Yaacov_Barak: GU 13H .UG +11 194
>James_Donnelly: EIIOPRS 9K PI.E +17 202
#note I thought that if there was one person who knew how pirog was pluralized, it would be Yaacov. PIRO(G)IES is yet another bingo I was too afraid to play.
>Yaacov_Barak: ACR 10J CAR. +23 217
>James_Donnelly: AIIORRS H3 RIA +13 215
#note Holding an R, I want to keep the G in AMONG open for GR- bingos. Hence, I don't like (G)IRO and prefer this.
>Yaacov_Barak: ILOU E4 LOUI. +10 227
>James_Donnelly: DIIORSV O5 ISO.RIV +18 233
#note This doesn't avtually sim too poorly. I really wanted a blank, but A12 VID(E)OS is too much equity to pass up.
>Yaacov_Barak: AMW D3 MAW +25 252
>James_Donnelly: AADELOT C2 DOAT +27 260
>Yaacov_Barak: ET 15F ET. +13 265
>James_Donnelly: ?AEELNU G8 .EA. +21 281
#note The only scary thing about this position to me is that I don't have a scoring tile to pair my blank with. While (G)EA(N) looks ok on the surface, I should probably be opening the board with something like C13 EAU.Yaacov has been playing like he doesn't have a blank, so I just need to hope that I hit before he does.
>Yaacov_Barak: AST 12C T.AS +21 286
>James_Donnelly: ?EKLNNU 12K LUNKs +27 308
#note According to championship player, this is one of 4 wins here. The best endgame is 12L LUNs, Yaacov's best play is always 15A SAWtE(ETH), and I can go out with 6D N(U)KE.
Misadded, so "overscored" by 1
>Yaacov_Barak: ?AEOSWY 13A WEA.Y +32 318
#note Yaacov incurred a -10 time penalty
