#player1 Jonathan_Lindh Jonathan Lindh
#player2 Karl_Higby Karl Higby
>Jonathan_Lindh: EGIKNUU -KUU +0 0
#note I was not feeling good after playing terribly against Michael Ecsedy in my last game. I also have had a pretty bad record against Karl historically. My play sims best.
>Karl_Higby: EOYZ 8F OYEZ +32 32
#note OYEZ managed to block my bingo.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEGINNW 9F NAW +20 20
#note Quackle likes WAN in the same spot best here. They both seem pretty close to me.
>Karl_Higby: COY 10E COY +24 56
>Jonathan_Lindh: DEGINOT E10 .OG +12 32
#note INGOTED is now homeless. COG seems fine.
>Karl_Higby: EILRRTT - +0 56
#note Exchange 7. Not actual rack.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DEIINTT I6 TI. +13 45
#note Best.
>Karl_Higby: BD 7H D.B +13 69
#note DIB now blocked DRIFTNET. That's 3 homeless bingos so far.
>Jonathan_Lindh: DEFINRT 12A FRIN.ED +32 77
#note DRIFTNET got blocked. FRINGED or 12B FIDGE for 20 both seem fine.

>Karl_Higby: AIKL A8 KALI. +36 105
#note Scored as 33.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?IINSTU K1 UNITIeS +69 146
>Karl_Higby: BDDERSU 1J B.DDER +36 141
#note I think Karl said this was his actual rack. BUDDERS got blocked but 13F REDBUDS still plays.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AEGIJQS J3 QI +24 170
#note Best.
>Karl_Higby: AIMP B7 PIMA +24 165
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AEGJSU 7B .UJA +14 184
#note Quackle likes PUJA 2nd but prefers C11 JIG for 22 as first. I can see why, but the pool seems vowel heavy especially with the E's.
>Karl_Higby: AET A8 .....ATE +45 210
#note Great extension!
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?EEGGSV C11 V.G +14 198
#note Quackle likes being very bold here by playing F12 EGG for 9. Playing EGG is almost always correct in Scrabble. VIG is very close to EGG though.
>Karl_Higby: HOOS D4 SHO.O +32 242
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?EEEEGS M1 .EE +8 206
#note This draw is exactly why you are always supposed to play EGG in Scrabble. Quackle really likes 5C GHEE for 16. The G isn't conducive to bingoing on this board plus GHEE scores more.
>Karl_Higby: IPU C3 PIU +17 259
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AEEGRS 15A .AGERESt +77 283
#note 15A ETAGERES is 80 and doesn't set up a cheap scoring spot for Karl. Quackle thinks ETAGERES is 2 points better than EAGEREST but oddly enough EAGEREST won me the game here because of what happened next.
>Karl_Higby: AEHNRST 13G ANTHERS +78 337
#note Best, although not in this game.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAILNOR M8 ORINA.AL +59 342
#note I miss this word quite a bit, but somehow I came up with the willpower to find it in this game.
>Karl_Higby: LTV 8L V.LT +33 370
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEFNTX 15L F.EX +54 396
#note I get a miracle draw and pick up the X.
>Karl_Higby: ELMOOUW 14M .WE +31 401
#note No wins for Karl. 14D MEWL for 41 is best.
>Jonathan_Lindh: CENRT K9 CENT.R +16 412
#note CENTER and TENREC are tied for the best play.
>Jonathan_Lindh: (OOUML) +14 426
#note Final score recorded as 426-398. I was pleased I played as well as I did after the Michael Ecsedy game.
