See the commentary official here.
I just came to the room, just after Round 1 of the finals for Division 1, between Jim Kramer and Geoff Thevenot. Guess what, even the top players play British words! The official commentary said it was a 'phoney', which in the sense it was, but it is an acceptable British word. Jim played 'ZOOEA', which is good for SOWPODS. Better yet, Geoff responded later by playing 'GENIE', hooking the E to make 'ZOOEAE', another British word. And none of them challenged each other!
Sidenote: I saw Marlon Hill ranting about them playing that word to everyone.
Jim won 390-374. Good luck to both of them. I am back in my room, packing to leave for the airport. Sayonara Arizona Biltmore!
