This is the best edition on the market. Smoothly turning board with storage for racks, wooden pieces, and draw string bag. Unlike older versions, this one won't knock the tiles off your rack while turning.
Here's a little known fact about Scrabble: it is less important to have a great vocabulary than to understand positioning. If, for example, you can put your X (8 points) in the corner of two Os (1 point) to spell the little word "OX" in both directions, and if that X is on a "triple letter score" square, you will score 50 points, which is much better than adding onto an E to spell "EXEGETE" (one who practices exegesis" for 15 points where there are no bonuses
