This really doesn't feel like it should have been a one-out-of-sixer.  1/2 Off could easily have gone to just four boxes, Push Over was winnable, and Line em Up should have been won after that first turn.

Does the trip cue from the second showcase remind anyone else of Changing Keys?

[LiteBulb88]

1/2 Off: Once again, picking the odd numbers was the way the contestant should have gone.

IUFB #2: Good for Drew for calling out Stephen's bad bidding strategy! And good for Stephen for taking the hint in his later bids.

[tpir04]

This really doesn't feel like it should have been a one-out-of-sixer.  1/2 Off could easily have gone to just four boxes, Push Over was winnable, and Line em Up should have been won after that first turn.

Not to mention 1RP. Since when does a range end in 8? Much less $3238? ($4495 though...geez. That looked $3k at most.)
