To paraphrase Groucho Marx, “Lydia, oh Lydia, your bounciness wasn’t prettier.” Obviously a smart woman, but she shot herself in the foot repeatedly and was either nervous or hyper. At least she kept Jamie from those last 2 DDs and locking the game. Max, on the other hand, was steady throughout and kept himself in the game even without finding a DD. They might give him a 2nd chance later.
Final was easy IF you took a few French classes. Wasn’t sure they’d all know its name. I got only the last DD. “Heat in the kitchen” was a huge giveaway if you know the actual quote. Surprised no one knew the coolant liquid. Knew the Guest film.
All I have to say is darn those daily doubles to Lydia but Jamie survived a scare to become a 28 day champion. Had he missed Final, Max would have been the new champion.
As a result, Jamie Ding is $800 ahead of Victoria Groce on the All Time winners list.
