Round 1: Fun & Games
Nura and Steve dud with R and S on $600 and $2,500. Troy gets the Wild Card with T, buys A and E, calls G on $700, buys O, and calls H on $600 before repeating the E. (He tried to correct it to I, but he was too late.)
Nura Bankrupts on the right of the MDW, but Steve calls L and P on $650 and the Beef Bucks gift tag. After D on $700, he buys I, then Bankrupts on the other side of the MDW.
