So, obviously, when Chirell spun 5 cents it was a lock for Suzanne. She could do no worse than tie Chirell. Greedy as it sounds, I think they should have been eligible to keep winning on the greens and dollar. They both would have won another $5K! LOL

[@sassymouth2056]

It’s not greedy. I’m sure CBS makes/made a ton of money on Price is Right. A show doesn’t stay on that long unless it’s very profitable.

[@sassymouth2056]

aDg 2k18 - Jeopardy lets them win as much as they can but realistically how often does that happen? The average winner walks away with what 10k? 20k? So a 100k winner every 3 months is no big deal.

I didn't win a dime, but I was smiling and cheering when that $1.00 came up for both ladies! Good fortune to all! I realized that had Bob reset the wheel to a nickel after Suzanne's second win, Chirell most likely would have had ninety cents and beaten Suzanne for the Showcase. But I see he/they felt he didn't need to.

[@ryanstejskal1506]

The wheel is reset to the 5-cent space only for bonus spins, which makes it impossible to land on the money spaces without having the wheel go all the way around at least once (unless you only move the wheel two spaces or something dumb like that). After they'd both won the $11000, the next spins weren't bonus spins, so the wheel doesn't get reset and they just spin from wherever it is.

[@hiimemily]

And they both ended up in the green on the second spin-off... imagine if either of them was just a little more accurate!

[@Kaynos]

4:18 Who doesnt know that adress by heart ?

[@litigioussociety4249]

This is proof that the design of the wheel and the way people tend to spin it gives players about a 1:7 chance of hitting a dollar in two spins, and a 1:14 chance of hitting it in one spin. In contrast, if it were truly random, then the odds would be 1:10 for two spins and 1:20 for one spin. The odds for this situation would then be (1/7)*(2/7)*(1/14)*(1/14), which equals 4802, about the number of episodes at this point. [The 2/7 is due to having a third player in the first round.] It may also be closer to 1:7, because it seems to be rigged to win at times. In the episode where three people hit a dollar, two again in the bonus round, and it was worth 10K for the first round, and 25K for the bonus round, it was clearly rigged. Using these odds the chance would have been (1/7)*(1/7)*(1/7)*(1/14)*(1/14) = 1:67,228. With the current number of episodes that would be slightly higher than 9000/67228 or close to 1:7. However, that was a special episode, which would bring the odds down to around 100/67228, or 1:672.

[@jmcminn1076]

Imagine hitting $1.00 twice in a row, and it not being enough to make the showcase showdown.

[@Brian211978]

[@StukInBuf]

And likely the Goodson people(Mr. Goodson was already eternally asleep by this point) would've told him to "drop dead!"

[@MewtwoStruckBack]

They should just keep adding a 0 on the end every time they spin a dollar until they miss. Insurance on this shouldn't add that much to the premium CBS pays to insure against having to pay out large sums out of pocket.

[@jasonsmith8300]

you mean 0 at the end adding a 1 on the front would be $110000

[@billyh88uk]

And then the utter panic backstage as it looks like Chirelle's actually about to do it...

[@MewtwoStruckBack]

There should be a rule for this where you keep adding a zero for every subsequent $1.00 hit in every spin-off. Each player should have been awarded $50,000 for hitting one of the two green sections on that last spin.

[@JonesDylan874]

And then 9/22/2017 happened. A perfect show, and a repeat of THIS, except even better. ALL 3 PLAYERS got $1 for $10,000 (because of Drew's 10th year as host) and then 2 of them got $1 AGAIN in the Bonus Spin for $25,000, for a total of $35,000! The 3rd one JUST MISSED another $10,000. $80,000 was won in total during that Showdown, which is now a record that will probably never be broken, even by normal standards. The max that could be won in the SCSD in the Carey Era (post-S36) is $78,000.

[@DougZbikowski]

The klaxon that goes off during big prize wins makes the show.

[@Chekmate99]

since Suzanne wasn’t eligible to win anymore money on her last spin and wasn’t required to spin the wheel completely around, and to avoid risking a tie (which she came close to by landing on 15), she should have barely spun the wheel to let it advance to one of the next few numbers (like 1.00 or 15).

[@douglasboyd6235]

All spins are required to go around at least once. Even spin-offs where no money is required. The only difference is a bonus spin doesn’t count for money if it doesn’t go around. The contestant would be required to spin again validly to break the tie.

[@AIPChristina]

You know, it's kind of funny because Lindsey had like no reaction to winning the thousand, like she knew she was hitting 50 cents again but then she goes nuts on winning 10K

[@mediachristiantv7472]

Wouldn’t have mattered, other than extending the show…there was no more money available after the double dollar in the bonus

[@erikpridemore3174]

During Bob Barker's run on "The Price Is Right" back in 1998, it had two wheel spinners get $1.00 and picked up $1,000 to force a bonus spin and a spin-off. And then they both got $1.00 again and ended up with $10,000 more for a total of $11,000 each for a grand total of $22,000 in one Showcase Showdown to force a second spin-off, and the sole survivor with 15 cents went on to the Showcase. Wow, what a rare happening of occurrences, right before it happened again later in the season.

[@edwardsimmons3190]

[@BlackAnvil47]

Hope you are still doing well Chirell!

[@thosetwodudes]

How cool would it be in the bonus spin off for one spinner to get five cents and the other to get 15 cents. One player would win, but they'd both get the extra 5K. Man I'd love to see that happen!

Presently, the dollar on the nose is one grand & bonus spin prizes are the following: landing on the five and fifteen results in ten grand and another one dollar results in twenty-five grand.
