#player2 Eric_Goldstein Eric Goldstein
>Jonathan_Lindh: CGKORTV 8G VOG +14 14
#note I dismissed TROCK because I doubted its validity and didn't like keeping GV. However, keeping GV is so bad, VOG sims even with TROCK.
>Eric_Goldstein: DGW H7 G.WD +9 9
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEKNRRT -NRT +0 14
#note 10H DRECK for 14 seems fine to play. I think I overvalued CK as a leave.
>Eric_Goldstein: ADO I8 .OAD +16 25
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEKRUW J10 WE +31 45
#note This was silly, why not J9 EW for 3 more points and more defense?
>Eric_Goldstein: EPT K11 PET +22 47
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEEKRTU L12 RECK +36 81
>Eric_Goldstein: EJT M11 JET +29 76
>Jonathan_Lindh: EEIOTUV 15L .ETO +24 105
>Eric_Goldstein: AY 14N AY +19 95
>Jonathan_Lindh: CEIINUV - +0 105
#note Exchange 6, keeping an E. I wanted to maximize my chances of a blank or an S, both of which are very valuable on this board.
>Eric_Goldstein: AAHLNOU - +0 95
#note Exchange 2. Not actual rack.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AEEIIN 8G ...IE +9 114
#note Seems fine.
>Eric_Goldstein: ILOU K4 LOUI. +10 105
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?AEHILN 12C INHALEs +76 190
#note Seems fine.
>Eric_Goldstein: ADIIRST D5 DISTRAI. +60 165
#note Best.
>Jonathan_Lindh: AAAMNRU 11B AM.A +26 216
#note Quackle likes 4J ALARUM for 22 by three points, but all of the plays worth making carry a good deal of risk.
>Eric_Goldstein: IO L4 OI +10 175
>Jonathan_Lindh: ?ABNRUZ A11 ZeBRA +61 277
#note A8 ABUZZ for 81 is quite a bit better. How often do you have the chance to play a word with 2 Z's?
>Eric_Goldstein: IQ C6 QI +26 201
>Jonathan_Lindh: CELNRTU M2 CUTLER +24 301
#note I liked the idea of trying to close the ominous M lane, but might have sacrificed too many points to do so. 13A BELT for 32 seems pretty cool. Would DISTRAINT have gotten challenged?
>Eric_Goldstein: DEX N6 XED +54 255
#note This wouldn't be the last time my opponents would whack me with XED this tournament.

>Jonathan_Lindh: AFNNOOP O7 FANO +36 337
#note Should be FANON.
>Eric_Goldstein: Y 10N Y. +13 268
>Jonathan_Lindh: ABINOPV 2J VIN.A +36 373
#note Seems best.
>Eric_Goldstein: EGINSST 14A .ESTINGS +72 340
#note RESTINGS#. Horrible phony to let go.
>Jonathan_Lindh: BEOPRUU 5D .UB +12 385
#note 13A BOB for 32 is too many points to pass up despite the UU leave. I was trying to play defense.
>Eric_Goldstein: EFMNORS 8A FES. +33 373
#note The H was in the bag.
>Jonathan_Lindh: ELNOPRU 15H OPE +21 406
#note OP is better than OPE.
>Eric_Goldstein: HMNOR 1N HM +26 399
>Jonathan_Lindh: LNRU F5 .UN +7 413
#note C11 MIRS and MILS for 12 are the wins. I picked a tie.
>Eric_Goldstein: NOR N10 .O +14 413
#note C11 MIRS ties.
>Jonathan_Lindh: LR 10D .R +8 421
#note MIRS and MILS again.
>Eric_Goldstein: NR C11 ..R. +12 425
#note Eric sees it.
>Jonathan_Lindh: L B8 .L +2 423
#note All I need to do is play my L one space down for a 2 point win. I did not because I had seconds left on my clock.
>Jonathan_Lindh: (N) +2 425
