: beat an 1800+ player at club tonight (Mike Wolfberg for those who know him). 1st I challenged off his phony open bingo (bipodic). I hung weed out, with a big set up for weedy w/the y on TLS if oppt had it (he didn't). weed also set up stature/tweed on my next turn as a dbl dbl for 87 pts. a couple of turns later, I play jerk, leaving another big y hook for jerky w/y on TLS. a couple of turns later, he played deviant, putting him up 161-160. the T was in 3rd position on the bottom mid/right triple lane. I played glitz for 45. I had to laugh at the placement tho, because glitzy would have had the y on TLS w/a DWS 3 spaces above. so many y hooks and nobody using them! well after glitz I got the y. my rack at this time was eeegty?, so I opted for jerky/eye for 41. next turn I play qat thru an open a for 22. this sets up his bingo of tailers for 79 pts, putting him up again 275-268. my rack at this point is egintu?. I easily see unitage, then gunites, but neither play. I didn't see either trueing or eluting, but luckily they wouldn't have played either. instead I extend glitz for glitzieSt for 57 pts. he plays hao parallel to fag for 23, forming ha/ag. that set me up for a parallel play on the trip w/any for 43, forming aha/nag/yo. remember the glitziest play? it left a wide open lane to either the s or t, so I figured, I'm up 368-298, I better block that lane. I play gout for 7 to the t. there's only one a left in the bag (to hook a bingo to form ag on the g in gout), so I figure it's better than leaving the wide open s and t. after he plays mono for 21, there are two tiles left in the bag. I hold aiilrw?, unseen to me is himnnoosx. after perusing the board to ensure there are no big x spots open, I play wair w/the w on dls leading to the dws for 30. I pull xn out of the bag, so my out rack is ilnx? and his is himnoos. he plays homos/statures for 36, which I follow w/axil for 33. he goes out w/nix for 14, taking n? from me. final score 438-403. after that I decided to call it a night. go me! lol
