Club Results 2/16

1st Thomas Reinke found himself at the top of the heap at the end of an abbreviated club session, going 3-1 +129. Granted the privilege of playing two games in the first round, Thomas found himself on both the giving and receiving ends of blowouts. On the "receiving" side, he was defeated soundly by Bryan Benwitz, 316-470. Bryan used a 99-point ANTISEX, among other bingos, to make quick work of his opponent. On the "giving" side, Thomas used three bingos (WATERMEN, NEATENS, and SPAROID) to score a big win against Dennis Lloyd, 501-313. Thomas' bingo prowess was again on display in a match versus Charles Reinke, where his four bingos of ANNOTATE, FACTOIDS, DRAGLINE, and TOHEROA# led him to a 440-418 win.

2nd Bryan Benwitz averaged 466 points per game en route to a 2-1 +241 final record. After making easy work of Thomas Reinke in the first round (the gory details of which are recounted above), Bryan moved on to Dennis Lloyd and won 481-346 despite getting outbingoed two-to-one (Bryan had a singular OBTRUDE, while Dennis had GUNLESS and FILLINGS). Bryan went into round three with visions of an undefeated record dancing in his mind, but those visions were snuffed out by the relentless scoring of Charles Reinke, who was victorious, 494-446. However, Bryan can take solace in the fact that 446 is by far the highest losing score of the young club season up to this point.

Sara McLaughlin's SEXTILE was word of the week. The definition is too difficult to succinctly summarize so Google it if you want to know what it means.
