    Yikes. This was, to me, not a good game for Mayim. Her choppy and halting delivery was distracting. I could imagine, for example, on the NHRA triple stumper, Alex saying “more specific”, versus her (delayed), “No”. She looked unprepared.

    Jackie seemed unsure of some of her correct answers. However, head to head with Christine, she wins. I really liked her monster FI bet. Hope tomorrow is more competitive!

    Jackie pulled off an impressive win today and i am happy to see all three getting final. Lady Macbeth would be proud seeing these guys knowing her. I remember reading about Shakespeare in 9th grade and one of them was Romeo and Juliet another tragedy play.

    Wow, Jackie has been playing like Matt Amodio or Amy Schneider and she totally dominated the buzzer and the game. She is only one win away from getting into the TOC tracker.
