From the only two-time national champion in Scrabble history comes a challenging and extensive collection of 1,000 Scrabble puzzles. Diagrams throughout.

Whether at an official tournament or a home kitchen table, every SCRABBLE player wants to be a winner--and these specially selected words and expert hints are guaranteed to boost scores. Based on the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, Fourth Edition (currently one of the bestselling games and puzzles books) and with foreword by World SCRABBLE Champion Brian Cappelletto, this is the equivalent of an intensive training course. Complete with winning word lists, such as those that combine high-scoring letters, those that have a preponderance of vowels, and those that allow multiple I and U dumps, it also offers tips on hitting triple-triples and achieving those elusive 7-letter bingos.
