Finals 3 DB: AGORSST GO. AL: AEOOTVY OVATE above, no one liked it. Quackle liked VOE/EGO. DB: AAORSST He needs an E for AEROSATS says Robin. He misses it. He plays OVA/AGO. The room is stunned. This is not good when you are down two games. Luckily Adam has shit. AL: OOOIIYE Adam tosses 6, keeps E, which everyone predicted. DB: AELRSST BLASTERS, SLATERS. SLATERS/OVAL/AGA/TOT AL: AELNRSV He would have had VERNALS and NOVA, but it got blocked. LEAVENERS*, which Evan Berofsky (Thornhill ON) found on his own! And that is what he played. Andy runs up to help with the big board. DB: DDRUUUW good news, he has WUD, says Robin, sarcastically. WE HEAR THAT LEAVENERS IS NO GOOD from Eugene. Zev says it sounded good to him. There was no challenge. Joel Wapnick (Montreal QC) says he gave advice to Dave to NOT challenge any of Adam's words, to not lose a turn, because Adam would not play any phonies on him. Adam musta heard him! Dave tosses 7. AL: ELOOOQRT Quackle likes trade 6. He played ROOTLE, to prevent a big play coming down from the triple like a "Joey play" says Robin. DB: CGIRR?? DISGRACER is mentioned, a play maybe Dave missed in the past? So much shorthand going on here, hard to keep up! CRINGERS to the S of SLATERS. We like it. 160-98, David's lead. AL: EEHKLQT Robin mentions that this is a very "constipated board." Zev suggests SHEQEL, which people like. Robin asks if it takes an S, it does. He plays KHET/ER/TO. Robin asks: did he miss it or did he not want to slot the Q out? DB: ACEFIPR I hear FIREPLACE from Robin. I hear AFIRE, opens up the board. He played FICES to close it down a bit. AL: DEILOQY Here's a thought says Robin: Fish into EQUID? Salvatore Desiato (Toronto ON) says yes, he loves to fish. Zev likes QI. It got played. DB: AENPRTX Robin loves EXPAT. He played it for 66. 246-151, Dave's leave. AL: BDELOYY robin asks if he can do anything to the R to open up the triple. YODLE/FE. He misses it. Robin suggests he might not know YODLE or not be confident. He plays ODYLE instead. A few gasps. DB: AEEINNR ANSERINE is called out by Robin. Potential RETINA rack.... she suggests get rid of EN, Evan says an I, too. Joel Wapnick suggests INNER/QI, etc. INANE is what he played. We all like it a lot. NO Us still. Four out. Joel says, we dont care. Robin says they do, who wants them now? They suggest that David is relaxing: there may be lunch afterall. David's colon has now relaxed about 3 centimeters, says Robin. AL: ABDIMMY I had to type in that colon remark, I'm behind... Dean suggests BIALY. RAMMY likes Robin. The move is RAMMY from the R. DB: EEFJPRT. PROJET, keep scoring David, as he goes to the triple through the O. AL: BIDBWUU We all groan. She says "let's not pretend.... we want more games. We don't wish bad tiles on anyone... but...." Robin says pass 7 and that is what he did. DB: EEFGNOW Dave is happy now, says Robin, as happy as he can be. Dean says WOMEN. He knows, says Robin, that there are 4 Us in the bag, he MUST get rid of that W. Robin suggests get rid of FEW. Joel says JOE for 33. Zev likes it. WOMEN comes down, which Robin says: the board is locking down. AL: ADEIINS Robin says he has DAINTIES. Robin says don't put the tiles down on the rack, he is playing a certain word. She was right: ADENITIS through the T. 348-276, Dave in the lead. DB: BEFGUUU FUGUE/WE, down the triple. We like it okay... smart play.... AL: ABDDEIZ AZIDE/EWE. Robin says it is 6 of 1. DB: BHINOUU (Adam empties the bag: BDIW) HABU/HI/BI/US. Good play. No one is going out in two, says Robin. Adam: BDIW Robin says, "Okay Adam, find something cute." Robin is sad that KIN has never been used. BID/BA/ID/DE. DB: INOU OI/KINO/AI David wins! Hurrah!
