The clue

The con kind takes your money, and where the knocked-out lie.

Eighteen tiles were on the board. Every letter is worth its place in the alphabet, A = 1 to Z = 26.

The answer

2 words, hitting 147 exactly: ARTIST CANVAS.

A1R18T20I9S19T20= 87
+C3A1N14V22A1S19= 60

ARTIST 87 + CANVAS 60 = 147. SumHunt reads left to right, so there is no operator precedence to trip over.

A new puzzle every day.
