Even if you had two blanks on your rack and didn't utilize any premium squares on the board, you'd still have an impressive 56-point turn (at least) by using all 7 of your letters.

About a minute after the 32GB models went on pre-order, both the Midnight Blue and Cloud White models were sold out.

This trick was thought up by Instructables user Ludvicka and only requires some thick string or cord (besides the pants, of course).

Nearly every game takes strategy to win, but when it comes to games like Scrabble and Words with Friends, you've also got to have a lexically inclined mind full of wonderful and weird words.
