Łódź Tournament - day 2

The tournament resumed with round 8 at 9 o'clock on Sunday morning.

Game 8
against Andrzej (122.24). I started the game with an English word UPDATE :) I got two blanks in this game and bingoed twice with cYGANKI (the gipsies) and SZ(Y)NKOWA (of her - ham-like).
W: 394-340

Game 9
against Marek (126.13). Poor racks and a blank I got as the last letter from the bag made this game weak. Two bingos for my oponent. Zero bingos for me.
L: 325-374

Game 10
against Rafal (120.30). Zero blanks, zero bingos, nothing to write home about.
L: 326-486

Game 11
against 3rd of my Lodz Scrabble Club colleagues - Anna (115.79). I played Anna on Friday and lost to her. But the revenge was prefect. One blank, one bingo and a narrow win by 8 points.
W: 335-327

Game 12
against Beata (112.38). Beata was lucky in this game bingoing three times. My bingo came way too late on the last move - SZePT(A)NI (of males - whispered).
L: 347-394

Game 13
against Andrzej (115.31) - 4th of my Lodz Scrabble Club colleagues. No blanks, no bingos - my weakest game of the tournament.
L: 238-414

I finished the tournament in 42nd place with 5-8 record.

Blanks: 14/26 (53%)
Bingos: 16 (1,23 per game)

All in all a disappointing finish only sweetened by the fact that the two top places were taken by guys from Lodz - Jakub and Jarek. Well done, guys!
