There’s a strange ending at the end of the first round. Gil’s score dropped $200 to $3,400 after the ruled miss and Gabriel’s score went from $4,800 to $5,000 after his response was ruled correct. After the break, Gil’s score was displayed as $3,800 and Gabriel’s score was displayed as $4,800 with no explanation from Ken about the score change. This is not the first time it happened. It happened on January 10, 2020 where one player was ruled incorrect and then the player’s score was displayed from 4,600 at the end of the first round and 4,800 at the beginning of next round with no explanation. And that was the case today with no explanation from Ken about the score change.
