Michigan Madness Games 1-3

Jul 01, 2008 13:16

I'm going to try to post all of my games in three game increments.  Hopefully I am diligent enough to do a post a day.  I really should be studying the 8s instead.

Game 1:  vs. Eileen Jones

Play the Game

She challenged my opening bingo, so was too timid to challenge my phoneys later.  I know that she was openly complaining about me after the game about my phoneys, etc., but frankly I don't really care.  If I am dumb enough to try a phoney bingo, it's her job to take it off the board.  Moving on.

I win  505-352

Game 2:  vs. Gerry Smith

Play the Game

this one was the opposite of my first game for my opponent.  In this one she challenged off a word early and then felt confident in two challenged bingoes that were both good.  The result is similar.  If she didn't gave up 5 turns during the game (3 to exchanges and 2 to challenges) the game would have been much closer.

I win  464-308

Game 3: vs.  Janet Gray

Play the Game

this was a really good game.  She plays a nice double blank bingo with the Q & Y early and gets down a second one late to be up a bingo.  I take all of the best spots for points late to steal the game from her.  At one point, I was down 117 points, but ended up beating her by 50.

I win 429-379  (I misscored two turns during the game.  My score should have actually been 420)

3-0 +359 with one more game before lunch.  Next up:
