He doubled, I took, I got gammoned for four. He rolled 2-3 and put two up. I danced with 6-5. He made the ace point, I danced with 6-6. Downhill from there.
The short five point match complicates the cube take consideration.
I came back to take the match to a fourth game but lost a heartbreaker to lose the match.
Though a short 5-pt, 4-game match it graded out as, by far, my best match of the tourney -- I still have one more to enter but can't imagine I did any better. I graded 2.76, he was 5.81. He had the only joker of the match and a luck rating of +9.6.
Interestingly, this 4 game match only had a single joker. In my first round championship tourney match I got blitzed in a 9 game match, 13-4, where there were 15 jokers -- 12 of which went to the opponent.
