>Ken: ENTX 8E NEXT +22 22
#note Misscored as 24.
>Geoff: ALLPRTU 9D LATU +19 19
>Ken: IIIIIII -IIII +0 22
>Geoff: HLPRSST F7 T..HS +16 35
#note Ooh, SHT(ET)L! Didn't think of it. I wavered between TETH and TETHS. Quackle much prefers TETH to TETHS despite the five-consonant leave.
>Ken: AQ 7D QA. +15 37
>Geoff: ELLNPRS -LLN +0 35
#note Trade LLP? Just LL? Didn't really consider playing through, though SNELL or SPELL is kind of cute. SNELL is about 2 ahead of ex LLN in a short sim.
>Ken: ?AADENR 7H ANeARED +61 98
>Geoff: EEFHPRS 6H FEH +37 72
>Ken: EGL 8M LEG +17 115
>Geoff: AEGOPRS 6M GO +15 87
#note I did consider PARGO somewhat, but GO looks obviously right now.
>Ken: EKNO 11B KENO. +18 133
>Geoff: ?ADEPRS K7 .DAPtERS +70 157
#note Didn't see PARKADES/SPARKLED. Look everywhere! SPARKLED is best.
>Ken: EIJLT L2 JILTE. +30 163
>Geoff: AEMNRTT 3H MART.NET +72 229
>Ken: IIZ O1 ZI.I +42 205
>Geoff: DGIIMOU 4C OIDIUM +33 262
>Ken: ABO 3C BOA +23 228
>Geoff: BGINOPV 13I BO.ING +24 286
#note Okay, VINO scores 10 more points, and PV is hardly an improvement on BGP as a leave. But I do want to make the board harder for my opponent, and I think BORING does a better job of that, at least.
>Ken: RUU B11 .URU +16 244
>Geoff: ENPRSVW 9J V.W +9 295
#note This or NEWS/PEWS/SPEWS down low? It's very close.
>Ken: DEFIIRW N10 FID.E +36 280
>Geoff: EEINPRS 14D EREPSIN. +72 367
#note RIPENESS is a little better. I liked EREPSINS' defense, but that's not worth 4 points.
>Ken: COSY 15L COSY +47 327
>Geoff: AELORWY 12A Y.LE +28 395
#note 12H ROWELED is gorgeous...at this point, about 7:00 on my clock, I was starting to feel queasy and feverish. Was afraid I'd eaten something amiss for lunch. I had the win, so I played the endgame pretty quickly.
>Ken: ACIOV M1 CO.I +17 344
>Geoff: AORW 12I OW. +17 412
>Ken: AV J1 VA. +8 352
>Ken: (AR) +4 356
