Something about that Cover Up playing really satisfied an OCD portion of my brain.

...and then along came Time is Money and pretty much broke my brain again.

Textbook "how to play Cover Up well" win.

Time is Money had me super frustrated as well, especially when the contestant constantly kept looking at the audience for suggestions and watching the cash go down the drain.

Opening: I initially thought Brad Sherwood was announcing, but then George mentioned he had a frog in his throat. I'm impressed by his willingness to tough it out through a taping with how much talking he does during the show! For his sake, I hope he felt better soon after.

Cover Up: I don't know if Amber did this on purpose or not, but that was a textbook use of the Cover Up strategy. She would have lost on the 2nd turn if she hadn't used it.

Time i$ Money: This was a textbook playing of how not to play. You need to move fast and not look at the audience!

Dice Game was heartbreaking.  I thought for sure that fourth number was higher than 3.   UGH.

One Wrong Price: TOUGH.  I avoided the accessories.  I thought the telescope was wrong.  Shawn thought it was the range.   UGH.  Who would have thought it was the accessories?   That was my third choice. 

Balance Game was also very hard.  It was between $6,000 and $7,000 for the gym and I agreed with Esias.

Agreed. That’s got to be the most satisfying playing I’ve ever seen.

Time is Money! One of my favorite games! After being played last week with $15,774 won, I was hoping for another big payday. Unfortunately, it was not to be. I think today’s setup was tougher though.

Agreed. So nice to see Cover Up played and won the way it was. Left to right, one by one. :)     For the final choice, I figured it would be the “8” and not the “4”. That “4” would be difficult to reach for some contestants. I would never pick the digit in that spot.

Loved the playing of Cover Up!  When was the last time we had a 5-turn, consecutive number playing??

That was an awesome Cover Up, but Dice Game was a heartbreaker. And Time is Money...I don't even want to bring it up.
