>Ayodele_Odekunle: OUY 8G YOU +12 12
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEFIIMU -AFIIMU +0 0
#note Overreaction, 9G AIM is 24 points and EFIU is still salvageable.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: ?CEEGRV H7 C.VERaGE +63 75
#note CONVERGE and COVERAGE are the only bingos, so this is clearly the better one. You could argue for J6 VERGE to not have the volatility when I clearly have a bad rack after an exchange 6 and he will hold C?.
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEEJMNP 11D JAPE. +28 28
#note JE(E)P is the expected play, but I wanted to play off more tiles to try for an ess. 11G P(R)ENAME is another way of doing that, but JEEP is definitely better than JAPER.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: HNORS 15D HORNS +78 153
#note Ugh.
>Patrick_Beatrez: AAEMNSS D11 .AM +24 52
#note I was sitting thinking JAPER was a great play after drawing two esses, unfortunately he got one...
>Ayodele_Odekunle: DDILNR J6 DIRNDL +23 176
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEENSSV K4 EVENS +29 81
#note K1 AVENSES, I completely didn't know the word.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: AIIMNTZ 4D NIZAMIT. +94 270
>Ayodele_Odekunle: AIIMNTZ -- -94 176
#note Confusing with NIZAMATE, but C12 ZA is 41.
>Patrick_Beatrez: AAAEEIS -AAAEI +0 81
#note I need to play 13C A(M)IA to block his easy ZA spot. Trading is a particularly bad play knowing he has ZA.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: AIIMNTZ C12 ZA +41 217
>Patrick_Beatrez: AEGGLST 3E LAGGETS +71 152
#note I didn't spot the valid bingo of GAT(E)LEGS, he held this for a while and let it go.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: IIMNNO 4A MINION +26 243
#note 4D is 5 more points and no slotting a letter in the triple-triple line.
>Patrick_Beatrez: ABIOPUU -ABIOPUU +0 152
#note A4 (M)IAOU is possible. These draws aren't helping me out of this hole at all.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: BF E2 F..B +18 261
>Ayodele_Odekunle: BF -- -18 243
>Patrick_Beatrez: DIOTTTY 5B DOTTY +37 189
>Ayodele_Odekunle: FT 4K .FT +12 255
>Patrick_Beatrez: AAIIORT -AAIIOT +0 189
#note I can't just play M2 IO(T)A and hope for some B play since I know he has a B, so there aren't really any good plays here. B2 O(ID)IA would open a little more space.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: CKOS M3 S.OCK +32 287
>Patrick_Beatrez: BEEIIRR A1 BRI. +24 213
>Ayodele_Odekunle: ABO B13 BOA +17 304
>Patrick_Beatrez: EEINRTU H1 TE. +12 225
#note After how awful the game has gone so far I'm not down all that much, and finding 13H (G)ENITURE would have given me a decent chance as long as he doesn't slam me on the 12O spot. I took a long look at the alphagram with the G but didn't come up with the word.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: AP 1F PA. +5 309
>Patrick_Beatrez: EEINRUW 13G N.WEE +14 239
#note awful
>Ayodele_Odekunle: EW 14H .EW +32 341
>Patrick_Beatrez: EIILORU -IILOU +0 239
#note 10F UR(E)I(D)E? 12K OURIE is going to easily get blocked and I'm already out of room relatively early in the game.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: AX K11 AX. +24 365
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?EHILRU L11 HU +34 273
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?EHILRU -- -34 239
#note Ugh. L9 ELHI gives at least some sort of chance, but it's going to take a miracle at this point. 6M (C)HI is always going to get blocked, I'm not sure of a rack that he could have that wouldn't be able to do something about the line.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: ADIQ L9 QADI +50 415
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?EHILRU M9 IRE +23 262
>Ayodele_Odekunle: FIT 2A .IFT +14 429
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?AEHLLU 7M .A +6 268
#note Since his rack is so bad, I can actually slow play this endgame. I can start with dropping an A at C3 for FANO, and use the blank as an S for NGWEES/QADIS, and then go out in 2 with EHLLU.
>Ayodele_Odekunle: IIOORUU 1C OI +11 440
#note N2 OI is best blocking my setup.
>Patrick_Beatrez: ?EHLLU O3 HULLEd +34 302
#note Best.
>Patrick_Beatrez: (IORUU) +10 312
