[UAB-Kirksville]

Lucky Seven was set-up for a loss today. Everyone guesses 5 for the last number these days. You pretty much had to have been perfect leading up to that to win. Evil Dobster!

Freeze Frame: That was a cheap trip to Amsterdam. I must have missed something? Did the person have to stay in a tent?

[RobertSearcy]

Lucky Seven:  Owwwwwwwwwwww.  That price was pure E-V-EYE-L.  (although, in chat, I put down my price and woulda won and had a buck to take home)

Esperanza:  RUN FOR YOUR LIFE BARKER!  

Freeze Frame:  What's with the Dob today with the evil prices?  Nobody in chat, that I know of, even thought about the Holland trip being *that* cheap.

Stack The Deck:  Yet another evil-type setup, but nice win!

Overall:  An ok show.

[baymonster]

...only got to catch the second half...

Lucky $even - Forced loss, the DOB puts down another player with the 9!

Plinko - tough luck

Clearance Sale - HARD

Freeze Frame - What the?  That trip was cheaper than what I thought it was ($5065)!

Stack the Deck - revealing the last number won that car for her!

Switch? - Yeah, they had to be switched.

SC's - Nice winning bid by Bryan!

Interesting week, but the DOB may be up to his worst soon...

[FieldsFan336]

Not a bad show, but The Dob could do a lot worse

L7: Painful loss, absolutely painful.  I thought Bridgett had it

Plinko: At least Brian tried

Clearance Sale: Darn Hoveround!

IUFB #4: Deserved the "Samoan Alert" warning on that one!

Freeze Frame: Ai-ya, Holland was THAT cheap?  Dob, what were you thinking?

Stack the Deck: Today's Dobstopper Deluxe!  Christi played that game well

Switch: Easy win

SCs: Great bid from Brian (exactly what I bid on that one in CSS), really deserved to take it

[heelsrule1988]

Bidding Round #1- #230, Christi!

Lucky Seven- Ugh... Roger strikes again.

Bidding Round #3- #231, Cynthia!

Showcases- Poor Christi. She kind of earned that fate, though... she only covered the boat with her bid.

BEST CONTESTANT OF THE DAY- Christi.

SHOW SUMMARY AND GRADE- Enjoyable show despite the lack of wins... Grade: 3

[ILoveBonusGame]

Ah, this day finally came! I must say that today's show was even crazier during the commercial breaks than it was on the actual show.

First off, Shanna was sitting right in behind me. I was wearing a white t-shirt over my red sweatshirt, hence why Bob had called me red-arms. I can be seen trying to pat Shanna on the back before she leaves her seat, then I turn around and watch her go down.

Many of us in line had been under the impression that Cynthia was too, well, over the top to get picked. When Chuck asked us all in the first pep rally before we got our priority numbers if anyone was celebrating a divorce, she went nuts, kicked her leg up and said, "2 Years Baby, WOO!" She was pretty likable after all, though.

Esperanza had told Bob that she wanted to take him home during the break between the SCSD/PG4. Bob then told the audience, "It's obvious that she wants my body!" And what do you know, she was called down.

Had Brian listened to anyone else in the audience besides his college friends, he would have won both showcases. I was one of the first to yell "$15,000".

Anyway, that sums up my first hand account of the show.

[wpghi5]

Lucky 7: I have one reaction to this result:   Damn you Roger!

Plinko: I would get 3 out of the 4 SPs right and get the third one wrong. I said 6. $1,000. Nothing special about that.

Clearance Sale: Me and Shanna thought the same thing when it came to both the day bed and the scooter. That scooter is always a killer price wise.

Freeze Frame: I'm bewildered that the trip to Holland would be that cheap.   My guess was the same as Paul's.

Stack The Deck: $19,687 was what I think the price of the car was. I was wrong and Christi was right. I couldn't stop the DOB but she did.

Switch: When I saw the prices on both the clock and home gym they were totally bound to be switched. A nice and simple win there.

SS #2: I wanted Paul to win.

Showcases: Christi was my choice as the winner. However I feared that it was a jinx and to my worry it did. Though nice bidding from Bryan if only he would bid $15,000 and wind up winning both showcases. When will that ever happen?

[BRB_TheFireball]

PG #1:  Evil price.

PG #2:  Ugh... a $1,000 Stinko.  Bad for Bryan, good for my CSS score.

One-Bid #3:  Girl on trampoline!  

PG #3:  Yay!  Clearance Sale finally showed up!    Interesting that we got the Fortune Hunter Remix today.  Wow... expensive day bed and cheap scooter today.  I thought Shanna had this thing won.

Before One-Bid #4:  Look out for Esperanza!  Thanks to her running around the stage, we got a clear shot of the second-half games on the slate.  No Double Prices for the sixth week in a row!

PG #4:  CHEEEEEEEEEAP!  I saw four possible prices, but $2,970 was not one of them.

PG #5:  Roger's going nuts with evil prices today!  But this time, Christi stopped the Dob!

PG #6:  Easy switch.

Showcase #2:  Yay!  Classic showcase cue!    Sorry Christi, but that bid won't even cover the boat.

My showcase bids:
Starcrossed--$12,598
FRBS--$29,692

[Richie]

I missed out on Lucky Seven and Plinko---wow from the recap, Roger wanted Lucky Seven lost----OUCH!!!

Clearance Sale: I think Roger wanted that lost.  The scooter was a killer.

Freeze Frame: DAMN IT a FORCED LOSS!!  Cheap trip!  Roger is really forcing losses today.

Stack the Deck: Nice win by Christi---good thing she took the last number today.  The last number was a killer.

Switch: Easy, the prices should be switched.

Showcases: Ugh, Christi choked bad.  Her bid only covered the boat, not the spa.
Brian made a great bid today!!

[PimpinJC]

Lucky $even-OUCH, that was a painful and forced loss.  Putting a 9 as the last number, that's just evil.  I would've guessed $18,475 and have wound up with a buck left.

Plinko-Well, no $10K winner this time.

Clearance Sale-I don't know why Bob and the audience were so worried when they revealed the 1st price.  That was the only sale price that could've gone on it.  I thought she had won.

IUFB #4-LOL, Esperanza was hilarious!  And we get a curtain shot and slate shot!

Freeze Frame-That was pretty much a forced loss.  I don't think anyone thought that trip would be that cheap.

Stack the Deck-Man, that 3rd set of GPs was really easy.  Good thing she picked the 5th number as a freebie, because it wasn't a 5.  Yay, we finally get a winner in this game!

Switch?-That was a good decision and a nice win.

Showcase-Very good bid from Brian.

[rob79]

Nice show to end the week.

Lucky 7: Ouch. Evil price. That loss was as heartbreaking and as painful as it can get. Woulda thought that 5 for the last guess would be safe, but nooooooooo that last number just had to be a 9.

Plinko: Not much to write home about here.

Clearance Sale: I thought those scooters were higher priced than that, oh wait a minute, i'm thinking about the Rascals.

IUFB#4: Esparanza sure had a lot of energy to be released.

Stack: Evil price-definitely played very well by Christi. Taking the last 3 digits was the only way to go to win this today.

Switch?: E-A-S-Y.

[SteveGavazzi]

Lucky $even was absolutely heartbreaking.  I really thought Bridgett had that Jeep won.

My God, that was a ridiculously expensive daybed in Clearance Sale.  There was no way anybody was going to win that.

Well, it's been completely absent the last two times it should have been present...I think it's safe to say that the show has stopped doing the ticket plug.

Esperanza was absolutely hilarious.  I don't think I've seen Bob so scared since the last time he had to deal with a Samoan!

Freeze Frame wasn't a lot more likely to be won than Clearance Sale.  How in the world do you get a trip to the middle of Europe for less than $3,000?

Where the heck is More or Less?!

Lauren is clearly a newbie model...but damn is she cute.

[Brandon Devers]

It's great to see Stack the Deck won again. Unfortunately, it was a heartbreaker of a loss in Lucky $even.

[whinbaby]
