WoF Quickcap: 9/14/2022

Midweek contestants shown left to right
Ryan Zsiga, a guy who used to kiss the TV screen every time Vanna came on when he was four of five years old (LOL! 😂) from St. Petersburg, FL
Marsha Kempson, a lady whose family has been on a game show (her brother was on one twice) except for her from Sherman Oaks, CA
Monique Nazario, a lady who switched from sports medicine to real estate from San Diego, CA


Final ScoresRyan$31,550 cash & linens XL/Marsha: $17,930 cash & Barbados/Monique: $5,500

GT: $54,980
Tonight’s Bankrupt Trash (minus MW $): $5,100

Scary moments

-After having all but the second column of the crossword puzzle filled out in R2, Ryan takes a CRITICAL L for loss of turn to squander $5,800 — It can’t be LAND w/ no D at the end and when there’s already only one in the top-left row of DIPPER if that’s what you were thinking it is.

Monique refuses to hop onto EXPRESS…and that proved to be a mistake as she BANKRUPTs near $650 to let go of $4,250 on her very next spin, and plus Marsha hopped on her own chance at it and successfully completed the ride.

Oh, and the YouTube broadcast that I watched skipped over the first triple toss-up… -__- But I will tell you that Ryan became the first contestant this season to sweep all of the toss-ups and get the extra bonus from the triple toss-ups!


Ryan, keep it up w/ one of these picks: THING/PERSON/F&G

XL $100K BONUS ROUND: Ryan has been given the keys to the BMW X3 worth $51,540 plus the extra $40K courtesy of the XL wedge from drawing A ROYAL FLUSH BRINGING HIM OVER THE $100K MARK THE HARD WAY FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE APRIL 8, 2020 (Sorry, Dave) — AN XL REBOUND FROM LAST NIGHT’S XL DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!!! TONS OF KISSES to your performance tonight, sir!

Ryan’s Final Total: $123,090 cash & prizes (NEW S40 LEADER!!!)

New GT: A WHOPPING $146,520!!!

Oh, and by the way, the last time a $50K+ value car was given away was in 2010 when a BMW Z4 was won.

Jeopardy! logo

Today’s challengers
-Harriet Wagner, a retired lawyer from Houston, TX
-Winston Li, a clinical assistant professor from Durham, NC

Returning champion: Luigi de Guzman (3-day $97,200)

In case you missed it yesterday, April Marquet intended to wager $14,801 in Final Jeopardy! as she took to Reddit, but it got MESSED UP due to a transcription error and she instead ended up wagering $1,801 which ended up costing her the win over Luigi de Guzman (That also triggered a rare instance where a challenger goes into FJ! in the lead and then getting the correct FJ! response but then losing to the returning champion due to not wagering enough). That big mistake also has gone VIRAL.
