It's In the Bag: I realize this was the contestant's decision, but speaking only for me, the difference between taking $8,000 and being able to pay bills, pay off a car loan or go on a vacation and risking leaving with nothing on a hunch that you may be right or wrong is too great. I would have walked.

Great win in Switcheroo. A good choice to quit when he had better than half of the numbers right. Even if he never had the car, it's still a lot to risk ... switching the wrong two and then ending up with just one gift that isn't the car.

And, too boot: What a Showcase Showdown. I was thinking for a second we'd have two big winners again after their third spinoff – this before they had their third spinoff – and it'd have to go to a fourth spinoff. But wow – two $1,000 winners, and one of them wins $25,000.

Perhaps today's contestant tried the patented Cover Up strategy to unfortunate results.

Of course it's easier to badmouth the contestants.

It's In the Bag: Ouch, Anthony. One of my favorite sayings when it comes to money is "pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered," and you got slaughtered. But you made up for it on the wheel and I *loved* your -258 ending on your showcase. Are you a member here?  :lol:

Cover Up: I want to know where Neisha goes car shopping. Ouch. Unless she was trying the "get the first two numbers wrong on purpose to have two free tries" strategy, in which case this was a model playing for why NOT to try that strategy. The correct strategy is to get the first one right and second one wrong on the first guess.

Switcheroo: Way to go, James! That is how you play Switcheroo--place the 4 SP blocks first, then whatever's left over goes to the car.

While Anthony may not have won the $16,000 in It's in the Bag, his $26,000 win more than made up for it, so he'll have the perfect wedding after all.

It's been a while since the last time we had a wipeout in Cover Up, but that Switcheroo win was simply amazing!

It's just common sense that cars that aren't in a rarely played game like 3 strikes or given away during car week begin with a 1 or 2.

And if I were playing Cover Up, I'd intentionally screw up the first number to guarantee 3 shots at the board. However, it's not me on stage and people don't know the strategy. Don't badmouth contestants.

I would have bailed in both Baggy and Roo today.

I would have seen the last bag as a 50/50 proposition and would've taken the $8000 and run.

As for Roo, I would usually bail with 3 right. The odds are in your favor and the tens digit is a very random digit in the price of a car so I'd take my chances on the odds with 3 right.

Proper Cover Up strategy would include getting the 1st number right. It's the 2nd you should BS if you're playing that strategy. Always get the 1st number right so you are sure to have at least 1 number right.

Not sure if Neisha got nervous, too clever, or both.  Brilliant playing in Switcheroo.  Not sure if it was intentional or not, but James made it look like he was considering the prices of the SPs instead of just randomly placing numbers which so many people seem to do

It's more like bad luck on Neisha since the 2nd number could've been 7 or 8. She took a chance on intentionally putting the 3 on the first number and unfortunately didn't work.

It's a dumb strategy to follow. And it's called criticism. If you can't handle criticism, then please don't troll about it.

How though? The purpose is to get at least one number right to continue playing the game. That's not dumb at all.

Jumping on the bandwagon, https://stoseontpir.blogspot.com/2019/07/the-ultimate-price-is-right-strategy_12.html (https://stoseontpir.blogspot.com/2019/07/the-ultimate-price-is-right-strategy_12.html), read this post to see why factually, calling the strategy "dumb" is absurd.

Also, gamesurf and bigblue999 encapsulated my exact response to that entire post.

This episode had some nastier setups (Extremely overpriced pasta sauce and overpriced utensils, the home office computer easily being deceptive for a pricier Mac, a cheaper-looking grill where you were doomed if you didn't know about the 1-2-3 guideline or that Coach aren't that expensive, the cheapest digit being right in Roo). To be completely honest, it looked like the producers only wanted Range to be won so that we didn't have a 0/6 episode and there was potential for the trip to be forfeited. Good thing we had a well-played Roo to end the episode, and producers meddling couldn't stop the double-double spinoff.

This is the first full episode I've watched in about a year. (It's America's sick day tradition, after all.)

Anthony was clearly very knowledgeable, and I felt terrible about his Bag loss. I feel like the rarity of a win in that game makes it one of the greatest pinnacles of glory for an LFAT, and he came *so* close! That his fiancée talked him out of bailing made it that much worse.

And it's because of all that that his big win on the wheel was one of the greatest redemption arcs I've ever seen on this show, if not one of the best moments in general. He needed a dollar to tie in the spin-off, got it, and then hit it again for the $25K. I was jumping up and down in my living room.

I don't watch much anymore, but today's episode reminded me why I love this show. Drew played it all up really well too.

Anthony, if you're reading this, congrats! :lol:

Look, I have some sympathy for contestants, but this was *NOT* a good strategy. There was a 7 and an 8 and unless you know for sure that the options, or lack thereof, have or haven't affected the price, that's a poor way to go about the game this particular playing. The better play would've been to whiff the 2nd digit this time around and that's *if* you know Kia Rio's aren't as cheap as $14K which not everyone would. They simply set this playing up that made using the strategy very risky.

That said, I don't think she was employing the strategy. It's clear she was looking at someone in the audience while she made her decision. For some reason, she wasn't looking at the people she came with - who were telling her to pick 1 - and perhaps whomever she was locked on was trying to get her to go for the strategy not realizing that - either without having seen the show or hearing the options on the car which is impossible in studio in the audience - that the second digit was essentially a 50/50 shot. So, I'm not going to sit here and call this woman an idiot, but I am going to say that she made a bad decision in completely disregarding her family/friends.

Bag, Cover & Roo were worth the price of admission just in how rare those playings were, along with a pretty insane double dollar redemption.

I doubt she was playing the strategy in Cover, it would take one of us to know that. She just seemed overwhelmed up there and probably just mispriced. It was a weird setup where the 2nd digit wasn't free either and -9 was actually right with no 0 or 5 in there (059 is often all wrong on the last digit) - so they were trying to be nicer.

There should be posts slamming them more often for the setups, but I'd get too tired of it if I did it everyday.

That said, I think they thought DP was easy and as I went into above, Cover was much easier than usual for them. And they may have thought OWP was easy too. Sometimes they really suck at evaluating their own setups.

Also I have no problem with the 16k bag being that hard when the previous four were that easy. Bag often has tricky 8k bags too, that's where I get annoyed.

Positive Drew moment - the way he has explained the Switcheroo second turn in the past there was a feeling he was basically forcing it on all the contestants. In today's playing he was very clear that it was optional and was almost begging James to stop with 3 correct.

It was also odd that the setup contained both a $49 and $50 SP. I understand they like to lazily give 1-5 now as the blocks, but there needs to be some differentiation between the prizes otherwise it really is just putting random numbers up there.

I told them to stop replying to you. I never said anything incivil. I've been trying to keep this as civil as possible. That's not hate speech. Under the definition of hate speech - "abusive or threatening speech or writing that expresses prejudice against a particular group, especially on the basis of race, religion, or sexual orientation." That's not's hate speech by definition.

*mouth hangs open*

Wow. Just wow. Amazing what has happened here in the last twelve hours. Anyway...

-I was quite shocked that the utensils in Bag were $3.99. Better be some high quality plastic for that price!
-Whatever prompted Niesha to guess $38K on a Kia Rio is beyond me. Maybe she was trying the use the Cover Up strategy(?) But regardless of that, you'd think she would be lucky enough to have at least one of the other numbers right.
-And what a spinoff! A tie, then a double dollar, then 25K to boot!  :dig:

I know it's not entirely within the control of show staff, but still, skunked first halves are not fun. As long as the first game is won, you already know one of the bigger prizes is being taken home.

But hey, the first half did have the showcase showdown which brought things back up quickly. My mom even texted about how fun it was to watch that.
