The answers are:
MAVERICKSSPLASH
Got the official in a MAVERICK’S SPLASH! Surprisingly quick today!
ditto. though started with mavericks spherical. curious to see if anyone got primeval to work
Not accepted, but in our ‘auxiliary’ notes we might consider a
PRIMEVALISH HACK
PRIMEVALISM—MALAHACK
19/2
“Ancient man learning to cut straight?”
But it’s an imperfect theme due to incorrect parts of speech in the word-pair.
MAVERICKS – SHLEP
Me too.
Same
Ditto. But only some do; others don’t!
And me…
Huh. I didn’t try that one because I figured it was spelled with a ‘C’ (schlep).
PELHAM – MAVERICKS 15/2 here. I enjoyed the rest of the answers and especially Jill & PG’s one owing (apart from its effectiveness) to its counter-intuitive theme, although I was not aware of that spelling -we’re of course always free to try them out!
REPRIEVER – RAMSHACKLE for me
Mavericks Spheral, too obscure to be satisfying, although it’s good to discover an alternative to Spherical. Official answer is better, but Jill and co. take the prize with Shlep. Can’t believe I missed that!
Prevailer-ramshackle
Nice! I couldn’t find a word to work with ‘prevailer.’ Had to settle for what I figured (and what indeed was) the official
Ramshackle is a fun find!
Primaveras-shackled was my first choice but not accepted.
Oops I meant shackle
PRICKLISH REVAMP 15/2
Thankfully only a few minutes today. Thought it was shaping up to be endless fruitless hours.
Only had a few false starts, including these:
EMPLACES SHIRK (no V)
CRAVES SIMPLER (don’t we all?… well that and an H and K)
I put all the letters in the EMPHASIS SACK and drew at random.
This is great. I wanted revamp to work.
Thanks TK.
You mean Revamp Pricklish, of course. Excellent answer!
Thanks Bernie. And thanks for the catch. Sometimes I screenshot my answer as it’s being entered and forget that the temporarily reversed the order of the words.
Mikvahs-scalper 14/2
also:
MIHVAH—HEMISPHERICAL
“round bathtub”
Apparently, MIHVAH and MIKVEH, both accepted in the game, are alternate spellings.
*typo
I meant MIKVAH and MIKVEH
🙁
Mark,
Here’s an Instagram link to a hemispherical mikvah:

Official. A nice break to have a quick solve.
I’m with you Judy! Amazing how satisfying it is to start the day with this mind bending exercise! Hopefully it’s a good omen 🙂 I thought for sure SHRIMPER was involved, but maybe that’s on the dinner menu instead.
mavericks – shlep
PREVAILER–RAMSHACKLES Took me a while
REVAMP – PRICKLISH
MAVERICKS – SHAPELIER
