Today show was a lot more relaxed that yesterday's.

Good win in Lucky Seven.
It felt like it was setup for a Loss , but he got through it by hitting the 1st 2 Numbers Exactly.

Balance Game was played for the most expensive Prize ever offered in this game. It also tied the record for the Highest Amount for a Money Bag
( $14,000, 2/11/09 was the other time it was used  )
Balance Game is now on a 9 Game Losing Streak ( When Played for a Car )

So weird to see a Pathfinder Board with the Same Number ( 1 ) next to each other ( Excluding the Beginning )

I was surprised how open Path was. She should have had the hair dryer and the other two SPs were also fine. And besides the 1 3rd, that wasn't too bad a price at all. Just it's impossible to price the 2nd digit of a Range Rover, so she ran out of chances. Shame.

It seems like we'll get as many "car-related" PGs as possible this week. I mean with Switch for two racing trips, I'm surprised they didn't finish it off in PG6 and just defaulted to a standard OWP instead. Certainly makes things pretty unpredictable, which is nice for a change...

I'm curious if there's an "official" tension setting for the Wheel, during special days/weeks. It's definitely a lot quicker than normal this week, but it would be interesting to know how they determine how loose it should be.

And just to be fair to the west, PDT viewers missed the first Showcase Showdown for a quick CBS Special Report
