Next, she hits Jackpot[/color] for R, but it's too early, so she keeps going. Afterward, it's $900[/color] for the S, a purchase of I, $450[/color] for Y; after buying A and O, she makes one last spin of $900[/color] for the M.

We're really in a streak of good vowel calls, lately.
Nice to see Conor find the $10K! Too bad the LaT had to stop him, though. I was kinda worried for him, too, since he was so close to it, and it looked like he was bound to hit it. I almost thought they were gonna rule Fedricia incorrect. Guess she got very lucky there.
Good PP puzzle writing, though.
