*Showcase winner

Other show info

*What an... exciting showcase reveal.
*Why do people bid $1 on their showcase when they think their opponent overbid? Wouldn't it be more logical to bid something like $10,000 instead, so if your opponent didn't overbid, you still have a chance to win your showcase?
*Wow, two wins in a row for Lucky $even. Maybe this game isn't that unlucky after all.
*The Dinette Set SyndromeŽ strikes again!
*Credit Card being played fourth? Interesting.
*So much for Pathfinder's winning record. With the recents losses, its record this season has dropped to 4-5.
*Double Prices has been played in 10 of the last 11 weeks of TPIR. The only time it wasn't played in this span, was week 13 (Jan. 2-5), and only 4 episodes, aired that week. Barker's Bar currenlty has the longest streak, it has been played every week for the past 15 weeks! You have to go way back to week 6 (November 6-10), to find the last week that Bargain Bar wasn't played.
