699 + 2006*

I set my new personal best last night, one shy of 700 because KC bingoed out on me. I also missed a bingo along the way. The game is here. KC was a really good sport. I hope I would be that good of a sport if someone hangs up a 699 on me.

I've been meaning to write up the Berkeley one-day - I actually had the games uploaded the same day but it took

699- well played! that game had a little bit of everything.

Marlon's fishing play is niiiiiice- disguised as a weak attempt to open a lane.

da Lester position izz a VERY INSTRUCTIVE one on CONTINGENCY (IF-->>THEN).

bingoin in dat position REQ opp 2 hold JQ or ? in bag. iss EXCEPTIONS 2 (ALMOST) EVERY rule, so iss likely some silly shit dat COULD happen (eg, QUI draw postbingo). beyond da absurd--SIMPLIFY da game n THEREBY da THOUGHT PROCESS--J/Q draw postbingo = loss. shit izz EASY afta dat (3 fuckin Es). JE / QE draw = INJURIES / INQUIRES - ST from current rack. i aint lookin 4 shit else (cuz E + ANYTHING bingo, so iss juss runnin da GRU--NOTEWORTHILY da shit dat wuzz in da bag 4REALdoe).

I agree, that's a great way of thinking about it. I'll have to look over it again but it does seem that bingoing only wins w/him holding JQ or with the blank in the bag.

If Lester doesn't have the Q or J, he should be passing anyway, fwiw. Of course, it's perfectly fine to hope for a mistake here.

[magratheazaphod]

you mean he should've been passing when he played XI?
