#note H10 IODINE, but although OIL felt terrible, it's not as far behind as I thought.

#note We misscored this as 8 instead of 9.

#note Killing ING. The Q is unseen, and after opp exchanged, it must now be in the bag. If I draw it, I have no plausible way to get rid of it. So I start playing as few tiles as possible while keeping A and D.

#note Drawing as few tiles as possible over the past couple turns, I successfully avoided the Q and spent almost all of my remaining time trying to find a successful Q-stick. Unfortunately I didn't even notice...
>robert: AGINQSU N13 SUQ +33 330
#note ... that he had multiple places to play the Q. QUAVERY was also possible, and I didn't see that either.
>boshvark: ACD 1F .AD +15 429
#note And so instead of sticking him with the Q, I stuck myself with the C. Not my best endgame.
>robert: AGIN 15N .I +33 363
>boshvark: C - +0 429
#note Except I hadn't actually stuck myself with the C. I missed the spot for J8 PICA. Dang.
