Car games: ...wow...
Cliffy: Ah, don't you love it when a contestant doesn't know how pricing works in some games? (four seven nine! four seven nine!)
Showcases: I had that Jetta at 20k.


Oh, and Squeeze: That setup is just a BIT hard. Just a bit. Not too much.

Merging posts.

Pocket Change was beautiful to watch. That is all.

[GameShowKid]

Even though Pass The Buck is one of my favorite games, I shall comment on Pocket Change first. What a win! Can't do it any better!

Not the most suspenseful play in Buck, but very nice win there also. Has anyone ever gone for money after winning the auto?

[Wayoshi]

Considering the other exacta nearly 12 years ago was on a much easier price (16930), this is probably the best Pocket playing of all time.

I don't think so. Waiting for that to happen...

[TinoStar11]

The highlight of today's show was Pamela's perfect playing of Pocket Change.
It was only the 5th perfect playing in the game's history , the game's 1st season ( Season 33 ) had 3 of them and 5/28/09 was the other one.

Considering the other exacta nearly 12 years ago was on a much easier price (16930), this is probably the best Pocket playing of all time.

I agree with you on that , cause the other 3 perfect playings of the game , the car price also ended in a 0 ( 16430 , 21490 , 17920 )

[ooboh]

In true Bob Barker fashion, Drew Carey has hosted the show for so long that he now incorrectly refers to moments like the Pocket Change win today as a “historic moment.”

[RatRace10]

I agree with you on that , cause the other 3 perfect playings of the game , the car price also ended in a 0 ( 16430 , 21490 , 17920 )

Not only that, but all of the digit choices were consecutive, which they've been doing a lot in games like this lately (3 Strikes, Stack)

[SanAnMan]

Like others, I absolutely loved the exacta on Pocket Change. Just beautiful to watch.

On a side note though, I was secretly hoping for a “Groundhog Day” tribute and put out the exact same Showcase twice (a la the movie). I know it was kinda done once years ago as an April Fool gag, but it could have worked here too.

[JayC]

Squeeze Play was fairly easy, $5,3xx was more likely than $5,2xx.

On the other hand, tough Swap Meet with the TV being correct rather than the accessories. Cliff Hangers had quite a mean setup, with just $4 between the first two SPs and then a $18 jump between the 2nd and 3rd. The $47 bid on the facial sauna certainly didn't help though.

What a win in Pocket Change! An excellent way to wrap up the pricing games for the day.

[SteveGavazzi]

Pocket ¢hange.  Holy crap.  That hasn't happened in at least a decade.

On the other hand, I'm not that great at the Showcase these days, but I thought it was pretty dang obvious this was going to be a double overbid.
