PHRASE

PROFOUND is right, but it won't be NITE, FIRST or MOST. It's not QUITE PROFOUND that Jordan lost out on $39,000. Then again, he won a bit more, so it's no big deal.

JORDAN’S FINAL TOTAL: $40,610 ($32,150 plus the luggage and the Antigua trip)

Yesterday was Pat's birthday. He read the obituaries that night and went to bed if his name's not there.

Full credit roll in the end.

I was scared in Round 1, but it went well. Round 2 was even better with many quadruples and a $3,500 spin. Even with the Bonus Round loss (I got the puzzle with his picks), this was still a good game.

I guess WORD NERD on its own would've been too short of a Speed-Up, but it still sounds a little better to me than adding I'M A before it. At least I was able to figure that one out, while the Triple Toss-Up DRAWING A BATH never would've come to me.

Recaps will be on hiatus as of May 27, 2024 due to life changes.

Of course, five wouldn’t fit the board.

^Don't forget Candyman was originally a film in 1992.

Well that was incredibly interesting to have a puzzle with the same word not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 times with one consonant in the puzzle 8 times. Nice that there was a $3,500 hit in the round, I was kind of hoping he would ride it out to have the full puzzle showing but best to play it safe after the $3,500 x 4 hit.

Thought he was going to solve the bonus puzzle, but he couldn't QUITE get it all. At least he figured out PROFOUND.

Recap posted. I just didn't have the energy as usual, but I pushed through.

This was an interesting go-through this time. Corgis, Candymans (I got spoiled on that one via TikTok) and plenty of big money all over.

Oh, and I researched the pet policy for the hotel Jordan won a trip to. They don't allow pets there.

BR: I also needed Jordan's picks to solve this one. QU- strikes again...

A light 8/10 for this one.

EDIT: I’ve noticed that this episode (and the last) have the Mystery Round explanation gone. Maybe the show’s listening to us!

Jordan killed the front game! The big R2 helped him a lot. I’m just glad the women earned a little dough.

I no-lettered JAR in R1; I’m impressed Jordan got CUTTER early on. But I thought DRAWING A HANGMAN would be one of the Triple Toss-Ups.

I got the BR with Jordan’s picks. Too had QU- shot down his chances of a win, but what he lost is chicken feed.

My rating: 8
