$1,000 Toss-Up: On the Map

_ N _ _ O R A G E
_ L _ _ K _

Reinaldo calls out ANCHORAGE ALASKA, but he does so without ringing in. As he's saying it, Gwen rings in for the valid solve.


Note: Spelling of last names is guesswork.

Gwen Canfield is playing for Team 5, the Lime Team. She is a nuclear site drug and alcohol screener from Chicago, Illinois. (Pat: "You don't want someone coming in with a glass of wine saying, 'Where are the isotopes?'")
Polly Coon is playing for Team 6, the Maroon Team. She is a retiree with one child and two grandkids from Charleston, West Virginia.
Reinaldo Iglesias is playing for Team 4, the Carolina Blue Team. He is a retiree and has been married for 48 years with two children, eight grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren (Pat: "Is that it?"). He is originally from Brooklyn, New York.


Pat reminds the players to ring in before they solve.

$2,000 Toss-Up: Things

Reinaldo, who actually rings in this time, solves HEART AND SOUL.


Round 1: Rhyme Time

_ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _
_ _ _ / _ _ _ _


Reinaldo immediately picks up the Million Dollar Wedge with a B, then duds with C on $800.

Gwen gets an L on $500 (between $650/$700), then duds with D on $700. 

Polly calls one R on $700, then an M on $500 (between $550/$600). She buys one O, then spins $650 for an obvious F. Next is one H on $650, then two S's on $600, just barely clicking off Bankrupt. She asks to buy an I, but there are none.

Reinaldo asks to solve...

_ / B L _ S _ / F R O M
_ H _ / _ _ S _

Reinaldo solves A BLAST FROM THE PAST for the $1,000 house minimum and locks in the Million Dollar Wedge.

Gwen starts with four T's on $550, then two S's on $650, but no R on $700.

Polly gets three H's on $500 (between $800/$650), then calls one W on the Mystery Wedge (between $700/$650). She flips the wedge and finds the $10,000. She buys three A's, then spins $600 for a Y, then buys three E's, but duds with P on $650.

Reinaldo again asks to solve... 

T H A T ' S / T H E
W A Y / T H E / _ A _ _
_ _ _ _ _ E S

Reinaldo solves THAT'S THE WAY THE BALL BOUNCES for the $1,000 house minimum. Pat notes his strategy of playing conservatively to keep his Million Dollar Wedge.
