If I am home, I will be switching back and forth between UFC Fight Night and multiple baseball games (with free preview of MLB package) and probably a few NBA games.

Perfect excuse for me to go out and play poker.

DoND did have one interesting moment. The second contestant said that she had had a dream about five of her siblings having new cars. So the banker, even before the game started, said that for every round that the contestant went without picking the $1M case, she would win a car even if she turned down the deal. That's potentially a lot of cars. Then the woman picks the $1M case on her very first guess.

Ouch!

But once again, that's a nice offer that might have supplemented her winnings pretty significantly. And all because of a generous whim by TPTB...

Did somebody finally win the million this week? I thought I saw a promo hinting about that.

No, not yet.

Hopefully she ended up with some decent money to pay the taxes on the cars.

Her run isn't done yet. And because she hit the million on her very first guess she won't be getting any cars.
