Stats for September 28, 2022
1st Thomas Reinke once again established his Scrabble-playing primacy by averaging 459 points per game and going 4-1 +469. In round one, he crested the 500-point mark with a 512-406 win against Aaron Bader, giving him enough of a psychological boost to finish out the rest of the night strongly. A triple-triple of INCLOSED for 158 points was the primary factor in Thomas' win, negating Aaron's flashy Collins-only find of MYTILOID#. Switching back to the American lexicon, Thomas easily handled former club director Richard Lauder by a score of 497-295, getting bingos of ENGINES, ENTAILED, and UPRATES to secure the win. Thomas' only loss came against the familiar opponent Charles Reinke, 400-435. The twins' bingo situations mirrored each other, as Thomas had OREODONT and WITGATS# to Charles' GAGSTER and FOUTERED#.
2nd Richard Lauder had a nice 3-1 record with a not-so-nice -46 spread. That negative spread was largely the result of the previously described whomping that Richard received at the hand of Thomas Reinke. Fortunately, Richard was able to avoid getting "Reinked" by winning a close one against Charles Reinke, 363-360. Richard played RETURNS in that game, while Charles had MIDSOLE. The high point of Richard's evening was a high-scoring 451-415 win over Helen Flores, aided by a trio of eight-letter bingos: MARSHIER, DELEGATE, and NAUSEATE. Helen, not content to let Richard have all the fun playing all those bingos, got down GOALIES and GROUNDS.
