INTER- Bingo Strategy
Recognize INTER on your rack: When you hold I+N+T+E+R, you have 5 tiles toward a bingo. With only 2 remaining slots, check if your other tiles form ACT, IM, NET, or CUT.
Fish for the bingo: If you have I+N+T+E+R plus two weak tiles, exchange them. Five prefix tiles gives excellent draw probability — any A, C, J, V, or common letter likely completes a word.
Board placement: INTER- words are 8-9 letters — look for open lanes. Rows touching TWS multiply your entire word. INTERJECT through a TWS = 54 + 50 bonus = 104 points.
💡 Key Insight
INTER- uses 5 of the most common tiles in the bag (I×9, N×6, T×6, E×12, R×6 = 39 copies total). You'll see this combination frequently — the key is recognizing it quickly and knowing which 2-3 letter roots complete a valid word.
