It’s Wheel of Fortune, America’s Game and we’re posting the Bonus Puzzle with the winner’s final prize amount. By way of comparison, the Jeopardy! payoff is also included with a link to the recap of that game.

Mon 5-27-19 $50,050
On Jeopardy: $130,002

Sherrie put one H and two O’s in the bonus puzzle. She got the first word right away. The last word came to her in
A _ U _ _ E N _ L A _ _
with a few seconds to spare. A $36,000 winner at last! Sherrie won $14,050 in the regular game.

On Jeopardy: $59,381

Chris & Blakely added an M and an O to the bonus puzzle and that was good for a first word solve. We really don’t know
_ H A _ I _ _ O R _ E,
when the other word is a compound word or when it starts with a vowel. This time it was the second scenario that cost them the $36,000 bonus prize.

Wed 5-29-19 $24,278
On Jeopardy: $69,033

Happi scored 2 D’s, an M, an H and 3 A’s. That’s some pretty good letter-picking results. Too bad
I _ _ I _ N O _ _ E L _
her get the solution. A Fiat Spider was the lost prize.

Thu 5-30-19 $28,397
On Jeopardy: $58,612

Matthew only got a G from his letters and, of course, it was at the very end of the word as he must have known it would be. It would have been
_ M _ Z I _ _ _ O _ H E M _ X
if he got this. It was even sadder to see the $100,000 card he picked after Pat told Matthew that he was a lot closer than he knew to the solution with his “paving” guess.

Fri 5-31-19 $17,700
On Jeopardy: $79,633

Lyndsey added a C, a G and an O to the puzzle. She didn’t have
A _ Y _ _ T T _ R L _ C _
than most of the others this week. She missed out on a Mercedes CLA 250C, but said that was okay– she has a Nissan Rogue.
