Mystery Round - WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Cindy begins w/ two G's for the same 1/2 KIA from before. Next is a pair of N's for the NY trip and then the S while on the Mystery Wedge next to the MDW. She takes a LOOONNNGGG time to make up her mind, before finally taking the big risk...and it backfires, so she just threw away $7,740 cash and trip plus her 1/2 and the WC. Jenn follows that up w/ the MDW's right-side BANKRUPT (her second of the night). Jason puts up a $3,500 H, but he purchases the only bad vowel of this puzzle (U). Cindy misses w/ the P. Jenn then puts up two pairs of C's and K's...
