Strategy Tips for TT Words
Play through existing T: If there's a T on the board, you only need one T from your rack to create a TT word. Look for extending plays.
-TTLE bingos are common: BATTLE, BOTTLE, CATTLE, KETTLE, and SETTLE are all 6-letter words needing just one more tile for a bingo.
Hook with -ED and -ING: Most TT words take standard suffixes. BUTTERED, MATTERING, SITTING — easy extensions.
Don't fear the double: Unlike rarer tiles, Ts are plentiful. Playing both early doesn't hurt your rack flexibility significantly.

📈 The Vocabulary Edge
Most casual players know ~3,000 valid words. Tournament players know 10,000-30,000. That gap explains the scoring difference more than any other factor.
Start with recognition: Identify which words you already know. Focus study time on unfamiliar ones — particularly those with high point values or unusual letter combinations.
Track your discoveries: When you discover a word during a game that you did not know, write it down immediately. Real-game discoveries stick in memory longer.
Target 5,000–10,000 words: You don't need the entire dictionary. Build a working vocabulary that covers the most common game situations and high-scoring opportunities.
Applying These Words in Real Games
🏗️ Building Neural Pathways
Each time you mentally play a word on a board, you strengthen the neural pathway that recognises that opportunity during a real game.
🧩 Building Game-Ready Recall
Time yourself: can you spot this word within 30 seconds of seeing the tiles?
Ask yourself: which premium squares could it reach from likely board positions?
Spend one week focused on a specific length or pattern, then rotate to the next
If the answer is no, that word needs more active study time before moving on
