The entire Bag segment was just great television.

[b_masters8]

The entire Bag segment was just great television.

So indeed! I don't think we see (or have seen) people run the table there that often.

[Wayoshi]

[LiteBulb88]

* It's in the Bag was great.
* Rat Race, on the other hand, broke a trend: from season 40 until today, Rat Race's third prize had always been between $100 and $300 (inclusive), meaning a guess of $200 guaranteed winning it. I hope this is a one off and not the removal of a useful unwritten rule.

[GRWHAMMY the 2nd]

after seeing that clip from It's In The Bag, all i could think during her celebration...

"where's the sirens... there's supposed to be an ear shattering siren" (with apologies to everyone at Warner Bros. responsible for the Looney Tunes brand)

[LFAT since diapers]

I'll write an experience post in a day or two, but as 'Jonathan' from today, I want to extend my sincere thanks to everyone here and on the Discord server for helping me to prepare. When I arrived at Haven, I was completely at home in the school waiting room thanks to the photos and discussion posts from S52 attendees. If you can, get out there before the season wraps, it's incredible!

[DebonairDylan]

That was great to see another It's In The Bag win. And it wasn't just my imagination that $340 for that toothbrush was expensive for a small prize, even one that allows you to be off by $100. Hopefully, they didn't remove a useful unwritten rule. And I thought Micah was going to have three rats, then got burned by a broken trend of having the three digit prize be outside of the $100-$300 range.

Your shirt was amazing! Congratulations on the Do the Math win! That was not the easiest setup.

There must be something in the air over there, because I've been giving out a lot more spinning gold stars lately. Congratulations!

Your shirt was amazing! Congratulations on the Do the Math win! That was not the easiest setup.

Thanks! In retrospect I agree, in the moment I was leaning on the crowd so much it didn't even compute!

Thanks so much! When I joined here during the worst of COVID this seemed an impossible dream.

I love your shirt. I STILL, to this day, hear in my head “A Mark Goodson/Bill Todman Production” during the closing credits.

[Trevor Tuominen]

That Mark Goodson logo shirt is a nice homage.

So far this season in Card Game, there have been 26 cards picked from the standard deck. Of those 26 cards, 0 have been aces.

Last season, of 93 cards picked, only 3 were aces.

The deck is now spread on the table by producers and no longer cut by the contestant. It is becoming evident that the producers are purposely hiding the aces in spots where contestants would be least likely to choose them (the first or last few cards?). Probability says that there should have been 9 aces chosen out of 119 cards chosen.

Distribution of cards picked - Seasons 51 + 52
Aces - 3
Deuces - 4
Treys - 11
Fours - 11
Fives - 17
Sixes - 8
Sevens - 9
Eights - 9
Nines - 9
Tens - 8
Jacks - 14
Queens - 6
Kings - 10
