1st Bryan Benwitz emerged unscathed from a four-player fray, going 3-0 +359 and averaging 453 points per game in the process. He started with a sound drubbing of Thomas Reinke, 474-359, playing AIRLINE, EGOTIZED, and PRESTIGE. That victory was followed up by a 399-381 win over Charles Reinke, thus bestowing upon Bryan the distinction of having pulled off the "anti-reinke" (beating both Reinkes in one club session). Even a late phony of AUREOUS could not save Charles in that one. In the third and final round, Bryan pulled out all the stops against Dennis Lloyd, walking away with a 486-260 win while getting down bingos of OUTMOVE, DABSTERS, and OVERWARY.
Bryan's RIFLIPS was word of the week. RIFLIP is a variant of the acronym RFLP, which stands for restriction fragment length polymorphism. To this writer, that phrase sounds like four random words that in no way relate to each other at all.
