It's about time somebody won More or Less! Especially someone so deserving! Wish I could say the same about 5 Price Tags though. I would've won that in just 2 picks, which I would've gotten without hesitation! Other than that, a very good show overall.

Recap posted.

One of these days, I want to know what the mental thoughts are to why so many contestants and audiences believe almost everything is false in 5PT. This happening without a 300 person audience surprises me more.

One of these days, I want to know what the mental thoughts are to why so many contestants and audiences believe almost everything is false in 5PT.

Here's what I think:

Let's say each SP can realistically be in a $30 range.

Would you rather say it was the 1 price shown (true) or one of the other 29 prices (false)?

It feels like you have more options by going false when in fact somebody picked the shown price, it's not random at all.

But you'd think it wouldn't be this consistent of a groupthink over the last few years.

Been a while since the fourth number in Squeeze Play needed to be removed. In fact, February 28, 2018 was the last time it was the correct digit to be removed. It was also a zero.

I just thought that was interesting.

Also, great More or Less playing! The first three prizes were fairly easy, too.

I figured as much myself. The car of course was the true challenge.

And it's usually Less, but a lot of contestants pick More. Good for Jerry for picking Less for the car!
