>Brian_Po: CEHOORS -- -39 131
#note Brian: I DO have a bonus, SOROCHE/DALES, that would be best.
>Joel_Davey: MOQSTTU 13B .M. +10 103
#note Brian tanked on the OOHS / SWEARILY* move which suggested he had a very strong rack that he didn't want to break up - seemed frustrated - so I wanted to keep the board tight here. After the game he told me CHOOSES didn't go.

#note Intuiting Brian's likely rack here, based on what he said after the game. May be a tile out. He has better options here, but he was pretty low on time and he does have a win in mind...

Brian: Keeping EMETINS open in two spots for 80+, playing OY make sense, keeping one tile in the bag.

What I failed to visualise is the response if I did draw into EMETINS. Picking up MN. Joel would had ENVOI at 2 spots, outscoring my bingo and winning the game. If I played OYE for 23, picking up EMN, and emptying the bag. He would had AIINOTV and was far less promising and in fact losing(with Quackle). I had the right idea but wrong execution.
>Joel_Davey: IINNOTV 4K VIT.O +18 480
#note Thankfully I had plenty of time to give this position a decent amount of consideration (by my standards) and check my tracking before committing a move.
