this edition by DICK CHINNERY<br />
Phil Appleby is taking a welldeserved rest for this issue, so we have a special guest<br />
annotator actually commenting on one of Phil’s recent games!<br />
2006 BEST FINAL<br />
PHIL APPLEBY vs HARSHAN LAMABADISURIYA<br />
This is a brief annotation of the thrilling final game from the 2006 BEST tournament.<br />
It's nine games apiece as both players face each other for the 19th , and deciding game.<br />
Phil has just lost two in a row, and the fact that he could have won one of those to have<br />
already clinched the title must be preying on his mind. Has this unnerved him as he faces<br />
Harshan in the ultimate Scrabble show-down…...<br />

Phil 1 AAEIRTX RETAX H8a 40 40<br />
A straightforward start for Phil, and a play that I'd imagine most of us would spot and agree<br />
on. Interestingly, computer simulation (hereafter referred to as 'sim'), shows that a simple<br />
AX ranks about the same. That's because of the strong bonus potential of the IRATE keep,<br />
and likely flexible bonus openings after AX, against the negatives of the two-vowel keep<br />
and the -ING tws risk of the RETAX play. But remember, such comparisons are only of<br />
value if you know all the possible bonuses that you might get from the IRATE keep! Play<br />
RETAX - it's easier!<br />
Harshan 1 CDIKLLS LICK K9a 24 24<br />
Harshan's choice is best. The synergy of the DLS keep with the floating E, and the tws<br />
opening created, give LICK value over the more obscure SKALDIC turnover play.<br />
Phil 2 A I I I M O W MIAOW E7a 26 6<br />
On another board this could be a changing rack, but MIAOW clearly fits the bill here best.<br />
Next best (although someway down from MIAOW), and on a par with a change clearout,<br />
are dumping I's in KIWI or AALII.<br />
Harshan 2 DLS AEOO DAMOSEL E5d 40 64<br />
Harshan goes for score and turnover, but the play leaves the board prone for easy pickings<br />
on premium squares. OODLES or DOOLES on the tws look better for similar score and<br />
turnover. The sim shows it's worth considering more defensive plays here (eg, ALOED F6a<br />
27 or ODAL E6a 25) for reasonable score and the S keep. However, there is some<br />
psychological value in staying level with the opponent, and keeping just one tile is never<br />
a bad leave, but I'd prefer DOOLES over DAMOSEL I think.
