Scrabbling for the Right Thing to Do

'Scrabbleman' Xavier Laszcz is causing controversy, not at the table, but in the press room where he has triggered a conflict of views between various (well, two) members of the PokerNews team.

Whilst discussing the potential of Xavier Lasxcz being poker's highest scoring Scrabble player with a quite splendid 42 points (strictly no middle names allowed), it was duly brought to our attention that there was only one zed in Scrabble. It was then unearthed that one could be playing the Super Scrabble version of the game, which does indeed allow two zeds to hit the board simultaneously.

As such, we are currently in a quandary and unsure as to whether it would be morally correct to award him the esteemed title of Scrabbleman.
