+## Problem
+
+`get_one_play` in `app/routers_v2/stratplays.py` made two DB round-trips for one record:
+1. `StratPlay.get_or_none(...)` — existence check, result discarded
+2. `StratPlay.get_by_id(play_id)` — fetch same record again
+
+## Fix
+
+Store the `get_or_none` result and reuse it directly:
+
+```python
+# Before
+if StratPlay.get_or_none(StratPlay.id == play_id) is None:
+    raise HTTPException(status_code=404, detail=f"Play ID {play_id} not found")
+r_play = model_to_dict(StratPlay.get_by_id(play_id))
+return r_play
+
+# After
+play = StratPlay.get_or_none(StratPlay.id == play_id)
+if play is None:
+    raise HTTPException(status_code=404, detail=f"Play ID {play_id} not found")
+return model_to_dict(play)
+```
