>Betty_Cornelison: HIP 8G HIP +16 16
#note Already I'm behind, by not being able to go first.
>Winter: EELNORY 7I ONERY +18 18
#note Didn't actually look for the tight, higher scoring play, because I'm trying to play wide open.
>Betty_Cornelison: DINRV K3 DRIV.N +20 36
>Winter: AAEEELR 6I LA.E +20 38
>Betty_Cornelison: AMW G7 W.AM +17 53
>Winter: AACEERT 10C RACE.ATE +66 104
#note Now I have some hope.
>Betty_Cornelison: ?BEFLLS 5C BEFaLLS +78 131
#note And hope fades.
>Winter: EGLORTX 6D LEX +57 161
#note Nice, but I need a HUGE win, so Betty's bingo really hurt.
>Betty_Cornelison: DINV D8 VI.ND +26 157
>Winter: GMORTUY H10 .GOUTY +33 194
>Betty_Cornelison: IORZ H1 ZORI. +45 202
#note Dammit!!!
>Winter: DGMORTT M3 GROD. +29 223
>Betty_Cornelison: AACEINT - +0 202
>Winter: EFIMTTU 11J MUFTI +24 247
#note I should have looked for ACT(I)NIAE, but even if I had seen it, I would have gambled that Betty wouldn't find it.
>Betty_Cornelison: AACEINT 12K TA +16 218
>Winter: AEGHIST O7 GHATS +38 285
#note Damn. Huge miss. And even GHATS was bad--trying to block a posible big N10 play. HAGS would have been better.
>Betty_Cornelison: D 5M .D +3 221
>Winter: ?EEIORU O1 OURIE +22 307
>Betty_Cornelison: ABCEINS 14B CABINE.S +78 299
>Winter: ?EENOPU E10 .UE +17 324
>Betty_Cornelison: EJN 2F JE.N +27 326
>Winter: ?AENOPS 4B PA +8 332
#note At this point, I'm confident that with the S and blank I can easily WIN the game, if that is all I want. But I don't want 2nd place--I don't care about the extra money or the WGPO rating. ALL I want is to win the tournament, and the only way I can do that is if Betty doesn't have an O and can't block the spot, and if she has to play the Q for a pittance and then I bingo out and stick her with the W and K for a 100+ spread.
>Betty_Cornelison: EKOW 3A WOKE +44 370
>Winter: ?AENOOS 3K .O. +5 337
#note Here I did screw up, not seen the A. I should have gone out in two and not given up the points to play (D)O(G).
>Betty_Cornelison: IIQT C13 Q.T +24 394
>Winter: ?AENOS 1G A.O +16 353
>Betty_Cornelison: II 15C .I +8 402
>Winter: ?ENS A1 NE.Sy +30 383
>Winter: (I) +2 385
