His only valid bingo was 12H (N)OONTIDE for 70. Instead, I let him get away with this plausible phony. You can apply things like suntan lotion, right? #knowledgesad

There we go. Now we're finding plays. #visionsolider

I suppose this blocks JO in this spot but A4 FOG is more than 4 points better in equity here. So that's a better play. #strategysmall

Almost. 13L JI(R)D is 2 more points, leaves 1 less point on my rack, and his out play doesn't score quite as much. #endgamesmall

I did see A8 PiNNATE(D) and was unsure if PINNATE took a D. I knew it did not take an S. I did not know 4A PlAN(G)ENT and even that's better than my play. Also, if I am going to use Column K, I think PiNNATE is better since not as many things go next to an I as an E. #findingmedium

I was afraid to play off my other I with BIDI for 4 more points with the consonant-heavy pool. But now it's pretty funny that another reasonable option is B7 BIRD for just 1 less, which might look a bit better since there's still 2 more Is to draw. #findingsmall

This and TIMInGS play in several spots. I figured I would choose not to be reckless with this placement, but H8 (R)IGhTISM is not a word I saw here. #findingmedium

I wasn't sure if it was HYOIDS or PYOIDS* that was good. If I was sure, I definitely would have done 13C OsTIARY. Out of the plays I did see, I considered 11A YAk(I)TORI but that gave back too much to him. I also saw this as more sound than I6 AuD(I)TORY or pO(D)IATRY. That said, 13C OsTIARY is clearly best but those -OID words that do or don't take an S are a bit tricky. #knowledgelarge

Not bad. I'm glad I passed up 11D (I)NiTIATE since the Q is still unseen. I needed to see 11D (I)NTImATE since that takes out 2x2s through the XI and does not give back a QI bomb to him. Froilan is capable of scoring very well and has done so against me in the past. #visionmedium

Even though I am basically hosed at this point, this should be 15H FRONT if I'm going to go here. I didn't recognize the JELLO hook for some reason. Even then, O1 FONT, which was missed, is better to leave the JELLS/JELLO hook open. #findingmedium

I did see 15B ChEWIE(S)T which is the only bingo there is, but that only scores 35 more than this. This is where it's correct to pass up the bingo and continue to outrun while I'm ahead. And CEIT? bingoes a lot on this board. Quackle approves. #strategysolid

While I did purposely pass up 14F TE(L)ECInE as well as 12G E(N)CEInTE just because of massive counterplay potential, and this will make the top right of the board hard to access, 14G E(L)ECTIvE is too many more points which was missed. That would have been the play if I saw it. #findingmedium

Despite keeping II, C2 QOP(H) is worth it and was missed. #findingmedium

Right idea, TUNING in the same spot clean up the rack a little better. #findingsmall

I guess I could empty the bag by doing B(E)NZAL in the same spot. I can comfortably outrun out bingoes he could have. But since I didn't see that, I settled on this. #findingmedium

first example of FRAGGINGS being important. DOXIES there is much better #knowledgemedium

M4 OOTID looks best. Missed that. #findingmedium

LENITES and FRAGGINGS #knowledgeSADDEST

-5 to slowplaying with R(EX) setting up LE(I) underneath. Not sure how I miscalculated this. Thought it was worse to let him slowplay #endgamemedium

Yea, this is not going well. Probably 12A VIEW is a better play at this score. This doesn't give me enough volatility compared to VIEW and also gets more clunkers off my rack. #findingmedium

I only have 1 win in this position that I missed- 6E (P)YI(N). It saves O6 ID which Froilan cannot block- his best block of that play is 5M A(U)K which gives me O5 KID to go out! This was misscored as 11. #endgamelarge
