What a lucky win in Secret "X". I don't like the game, but nice!

10 Chances! One of my favorite games! If only the contestant hadn't "wasted" a few chances on prices that didn't end in zero. Some suspense at the end though; would he win the car with just two chances? No, and it was a bit painful to see the actual retail price of $23410 after he wrote $23140 on Chance #9.

Nothing stresses me more than a contestant who has no idea how to play 10 Chances.

[SeaBreeze341]

The 10 Chances thing was not good, but not a surprise either.  IMO, it's not a game that comes up in a casual conversation with a casual fan taking TPIR.  I'm not defending Jeffrey's gameplay; he didn't get it done, but I think he figured it out, but too little too late.

Really, I was more upset with Matthew's gameplay in Race Game.  The guy wasn't that athletic, but way too much time getting assistance, which didn't help in the end.  I was fearing he would end up with nothing, but he was fortunate to end up with half the gifts as time expired.

I guess it was worth the hour wait for showcase winner Caleigh; Let Em Roll has been anything but fun more often than not this year, but it's still one of my favorites.  Nice win for the first time in a long time, preceded by a no-decision to stop or go!
