For the unrepentant scrabble cheat here are some unethical scrabble strategies that'll help you infuriate and demoralize your opponents!

J words!

The <a href="http://www.scrabblefinder.com/letter-j-words">J words</a> are some of the hardest to use - J is one of the least frequently used words in the English language (along with Q). It's 56 times less frequent in words used in the English language than E (The most commonly used words). There are two great two-letter J words in JO and JA (depending on whether you're using British or American English).

Scrabble X Words

The X tile is actually one of the easier high-point tiles to use in scrabble. The words "OX", "AX", "EX", and the two letter gem "XI" mean that placement is relatively easy. The key is to overlap one of these words on a triple-point tile or similar. Check out this list of Scrabble X words at scrabblefinder.com.
