I enjoyed these, thanks.
"I tried really hard this tournament to not
get bogged down on racks and keep a buffer for myself going into the endgame"
That's something I need to do more often. It's one thing to take the time necessary to find the right play, another to waffle over trifling matters.

Very interesting stuff. I especially like the small strategic setup plays, which I frequently screw up. Now if I only I could complete the crossword puzzle...

"whereas in the pussyfoot variation we only lose when he gets down one of the XANTH- bingos."
hehe one of us must be missing something. Don't you lose in a myriad of variations where he bingos and you have no bingo next turn?
Nice plays! Thank you for the puzzles.
