>Rafi: ACDISUW B10 WADIS +52 178
>Chris_Cree: AFLNNPQ D11 FLAN +28 168
#note As soon as one hits simulate, FLAN moves up. I would never consider a QNN leave, Guess I have to think about that.
>Rafi: ACIPTUY 5E PAT..CY +56 234
#note C: Rafi said he had PAUCITY here. Lovely play.
>Chris_Cree: EINPQRS A13 QIS +49 217
#note Would love to play Q for 21. Had it been a 31 point Q-drop, I would have done it, but ER is so string I am liable to hit next turn anyway.
>Rafi: IMNRTUX H10 UNMIXT +58 292
#note C: Catchin' anything, kid? Again, lovely play
>Chris_Cree: DEENPRT 1G P.RENTED +62 279
#note Never saw the OBVIATED A - duh
>Rafi: ?AEGHRU N1 .AUGHtER +74 366
#note R: Would have played GERAH if this higher scoring bingo didn't materialize. GERAH actually sims better than DAUGHTER too! I figured the U really devalued the blank here, and that the board was so open for potential that immediate scoring took precedence over future scoring which seemed bountiful with most draws.
C: Holy Moley!
>Chris_Cree: DEEGINS O7 SEEDING +88 367
#note Had I played PARENTED correctly, Rafi would have had LAUGHERs and I would NOT have had seedings* !:-), but would have had REEDINGS and maybe another choice or 2.
Of course, there is a God, so no doubt, I will draw my much-deserved after this.
>Rafi: ?EILOVZ F7 V.LOrIZE +73 439
#note C: Well, I guess there is no God after all. Nice find, but....
GMAB
429 after 7 moves is 62.71 per turn
>Chris_Cree: CHIORTU B5 UH +28 395
>Rafi: BEJOUWY M7 YOWE +31 470
#note R: Tacking on the E seemed like a good idea here in order to hinder bingo options and force fishes to use 2 tiles or less instead of 3. YOWE sims best on many-plies.
C: Brought average score per play down to 58.75
>Chris_Cree: CILORTT 2M L.T +5 400
#note I see the possible EROTICA(L) and fished for it ot whatever 7 might fit ot an 8 off the T or through I that may still be available
>Rafi: BEFJOOU L6 JOB +31 501
#note R: I had about 6-7 minutes for this play. I saw ARGOTIC, and spent about 4 minutes retracking/scouring for bingos I might have freakishly missed through the I or off the T. Then with about 2 minutes left I was like OH CRAP THE L. With TRAGICAL possible, it was apparent that I was no longer 100% to win after any play. Blocking ARGOTIC is best though, because Chris is more likely to have it than TRAGICAL - strangely I didn't figure this out during the game, (I guessed LAT left ACIRT which draws equally to both and chose to block the one that's easiest to find, but fishes without the A are reasonable).
C: I cut a calf praying for Rafi to play J(I)B to try to block EROTICA(L). This is the play that wins. From Rafi's viewpoint, I could have had TRAGICA(L) as the A is in the bag and my LT play could have easily meant that I held ACILT. He said, "There is 100% chance you would see ARGOTIC and a 99% chance you would see TRAGICAL, so I covered ARGOTIC." Excellent thinking. I am actually pretty proud that after no blanks, no X, no Z, no J, having a U-less Q and opp averaging damn near 60 points a turn, I made him *have* to make the right play to win. Needed three S's and three -ER combos to countermand that.

#note I am supposed to cover the J2 spot, not make it more valuable - dimwad !!- ALEF for 38 is now available
>Rafi: AEFOU 2J FA +28 529
#note ALEF whoops
