This defined everything that makes Press Your Luck great: Avoiding the 4th whammy, heartstopping spins, spin battles (not necessarily with just 1 spin), getting that additional spin to stay in the game, and excellent strategy to send a massive amount of spins to a player with 3 whammies.
I can't determine which PYL episode was more exciting. The Larson one or this, but I have to tell you. The hilarious reactions that Peter had shows that even he was swept up. I wonder what CBS was doing as they were watching and taping this!
I look at this and see one of the reasons that Whammy! wasn't as good as this: a lot of the best second rounds in PYL came from tons of whammies in the first round. The rule change in the remake took away that possibility.
that was intense seeing that one spin keep bouncing back like that....kacey made an error in the first half.. she shouldn't have passed so many spins right away...
Not so much an error. She'd rather have Chris get that final whammy and level the totals all three ways, as opposed to hitting a whammy herself, which not only gives her three whammies, but also gives Chris the advantage.
I really don't know why some people claim that GSN skipped over the contestant intro, when in actuality, that's pretty much how this episode originally aired.
This episode kicked ass

Did Skip ever meet Ron Jeremy? He looks like a porn star with that mustache.

Kacey should have passed after landing on 4000+Spin. Chris actually looked excited when Skip landed on a Motorcycle!

I feel sorry for Kacey. She only took a grand total of five spins this whole game.
Peter: One more whammy, you'll be out of the game. Nobody wants that ---- except maybe Chris and Skip!

Was that the correct play 11 spins passed?
nextbarker 3 years ago
He has to avoid the whammy 11 times, or else it'll be his fourth Whammy.
Yeah, that play was correct.
therealnick103 3 years ago
Other than this, the most spins passed at one time was ten.
"RandomManA"'s video called "One Bizarre Game" covers that.
therealnick103 3 years ago
I that was me, I'd be calling for $2k/LaW instead of Big Bucks

"nextbarker", just to let you in on it...
passing a high number of spins to any contestant with three whammies is ALWAYS a good play.

Correct me If I'm wrong, but is 11 passed the record?

I can't blame her decision, though. She had 2 Whammies in a row, and she didn't want to go into round 2 with 3 Whammies, so I can see her point.
