Theme: California Coast

On Jeopardy: $32,801

Vicky scored with an M, an A and one Wild Card pick, an H. All that was left to do was
_ A _ _ L E O _ _ _ _ E P _ _ A S E.
She did just that and won a Mustang convertible worth $36,505. She won $15,650 in the main round, too.

Tue 10-1-19 $10,250
On Jeopardy: $23,000

Carolyn got nada out of her consonants but she did get one O on the vowel side. There was just no lead whatsoever on the first word. How
_ H E _ S _ D L E _ _ E _ B _ A _ D
can help in such a situation is beyond us. The lost bonus was $45,000.

Wed 10-2-19 $23,300
On Jeopardy: $26,401

Corey got one D from her letter choices. It was the last letter of the first word.
S _ R _ _ F _ I K _ _ _ S _ _ R D A _,
it wasn’t enough to work it out, but this time, a different vowel pick would have made a huge difference– a $37,000 difference.

Thu 10-3-19 $17,550
On Jeopardy: $10,001

Tony added two M’s and three O’s to his bonus puzzle, a fairly promising start. In a
S _ _ G H _ _ W _ S _ _ F _ R _ N Y,
he couldn’t do what the puzzle said to allow him to recall the phrase in 10 seconds. Pat had another $37,000 card.

Fri 10-4-19 $21,320
On Jeopardy: $17,800

Lori got one H, one B and three O’s from her letters. They were good picks, worthy of cautioning the audience to pipe down. Sadly, Lori was not very
F _ M _ L _ _ R W _ T _ T _ E _ _ Y _ N G.
She couldn’t get that last word and lost out on an extra $37,000.
