Congratulations to Robert Kahn on his 801-point game at NASPA Club #276 in Lauderhill, FL. He made seven bingos: HAEMOID, sTARTLE, INSERTS, ENVIOUS, BEPAINT, RE(E)CHOEd and TEARIEST.
As far as we know, his score 801 is the second highest ever recorded in a sanctioned competitive club game in North America. On October 12, 2006, Michael Cresta scored 830 points at NSA Club #108 in Lexington, MA.
Robert has been playing SCRABBLE for approximately 56 years. His rating is 1695 and ranking 209.
