Today on wheel of fortune, there's a car, an entertainment set, $25,000, a piano, the surprise wedge and more up for grabs. Let's meet our contestants:
George Halse: Self employed businessman who likes to watch movies from Ventnor, NJ
Jason Block: Found from one of the contestant searches in Brooklyn, he is an Immigration legal assistant who likes to learn about cars.
Dalet Brady 2-day champ that has won $66,607.
Let's Play:
Round 1
Top Dollar Value is $1000, played for cash and here is the puzzle:
It's Slang. Here's the letters given for the round:
IT'S A SLAM DUNK for Jason as he gets $1000.
Sole Dud: E (George) $3450
George: Only dud in the round
Jason: $1000
Dalet: Has yet to play
Round 2
Top dollar is now $2500 and we have a Tennis prize (Tennis Wear, Ray-ban, and Tennis Racket) on the Wheel worth only $1133.
Here's the puzzle:
A nice, long Phrase.
Dalet can BAKE A BATCH OF BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES with that $4050 and Free Spin
Lose a Turn: Jason: $1000 and Tennis
George: One round, One Dud
Jason: $1000
Dalet: $4050 and a Free Spin
Round 3
$3500 is the top dollar value on the board and this is a special Puzzle:
It's a Clue.
Does George know what MARILYN MONROE'S LAST FILM was? No. He said Something's Gotta Give, but that wasn't it. Jason gets it however with THE MISFITS. That's $500 for Jason and $5200 for George this round.
BANKRUPT: Dalet (Loss of Turn)
George: $5200
Jason: $1500
Dalet: $4050 and a Free Spin.
Round 4
Before the puzzle, Pat clarifies that Something's Gotta Give was the last movie she worked on, but The Misfits was her last completed movie which the clue was implying. $5000 is the top dollar value in round 4 and a WATCH worth $7390. Here's the puzzle:
It's another phrase:
Dalet's THRIST FOR KNOWLEDGE gives here another $3350.
Lose a Turn: (2) George, Jason ($200)
George: $5200
Jason $1500
Dalet $7400 and that Free Spin
Round 5
We have enough time for Round 5 and it's a thing:
Jason Starts:
Dalet gets her BEDTIME SNACK of $1250 and that's it.
Duds: (2) Jason (R) $900, Dalet (L) $1500 Free spin used
George: $5200
Jason $1500
Dalet $8650.
BONUS ROUND
Let's see if Dalet can retire happy. There a $22,000 United Kingdom trip and $25,000 in cash. Only the H and the second E are left. She chooses the H. It's a short place:
Those are no help. She chooses C D Z and O.
Those letters prove to be very help and she can go to a ZOO with $25,000 for a grand total today of $33650 and she retires with $100257. She must be one happy gal.
Vanna ends by saying that this is the first time Z is called in the bonus round. Whether this is true or not, it worked for her. I enjoyed doing this recap, but it took me all afternoon to make
. Give me your comments on this recap to improve how I do recaps for later. Good night.
