USEFUL TIPS

 
  • Join a Scrabble club

The benefits of joining a Scrabble club cannot be overemphasized. You will be able to interact and play with players of varying skills. Most clubs will furnish you with wordlists so that you can get up to speed quickly.

 
  • Play with stronger players

This is extremely beneficial for improving the game of new and experienced players. Ask the stronger player to talk about why he made a particular move during the post-game analysis session. Another very interesting way is to play team Scrabble where a two-handed game is played between two teams with each team comprising of one strong and one weaker player. This allows you to truly appreciate how an expert player seemingly creates his own luck most of the time.

 
  • Systematically learn 2 and 3 letter words with their hooks

This could be a chore or lots of fun depending on how you go about it. Do not try to fight or ridicule the lexicographers for including such strange nonsensical words. Instead spend your energy in mastering these words as it will give the necessary flexibility to your game. If you are serious about improving your game you cannot avoid studying!

 
  • Learn the top one thousand high probability 7 and 8 letter bingos

This is where a program like LeXpert shines. You can easily generate wordlists and order them by probability. Once you have the top one thousand high probability bingos mastered you can give even and expert-rated player a run for his money.

 
  • Learn the JQXZ containing words up to 5 letters
