Yesterday on the Wheel of Fortune

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.

These common letters are always turned over in the bonus puzzle before the player chooses letters: R, S, T, L, N, E

Thu 3-28-24: On Wheel of Fortune: $30,899
On Jeopardy: $7,600

PHRASE: T H E _ 🟪 _ R E 🟪 _ _ D D _

Marissa chose the letters H, D, C and O. She got one H and two D’s out of that. I suppose that’s technically a phrase but it’s not one you are likely to hear once a year no matter what word you finish it off with. Marissa couldn’t get around to a guess with
T H E _ 🟪 R _ _ H T 🟪 _ O _ E L
before her time was up and, oh, the $40K bonus prize is back, even if she didn’t win it.

Emma chose the letters G, H, P and O. She also chose a B with her Wild Card. She got one G and 2 H’s. The G-H combo that showed up in the last word went a long way toward helping Emma talk out the solution. She won a $100,000 bonus. It seems like the big numbers streak is due to end soon but
_ T ‘ S 🟪 S _ P E R 🟪 L _ _ _ _
for Emma that didn’t happen in her bonus round.

I’ve been playing Phrasle online everyday for a while now, mainly because some of the phrases bring back memories. I’ve decided to post the previous day’s solution here because I think it’s also a useful tool in helping one recognize word patterns (sort of like cryptograms). Give it a try!
