Amazingly, despite the lead, the turn, the S, the X, and my inert-looking rack, Bob is lost here. This was correctly pointed out privately by Roger Phillips and Marlon Hill.

The obvious WAX 2m, 35 is met by TINAJA# a10, 42. Blocks of TINAJA are met by outplays of either AMENTIA g6 or ANTIAR 10g, winning.

Extra credit:
What was my highest-scoring play the previous turn which I eschewed to play REIGNEd setting up the TINAJA ending?
