You can see a little part of the $5000 wedge in the bottom left at 1:07. (I paused it for a bit at that point.)

@DomBellicini The world dictionaries 3rd defination defines bankrupt as a noun as "a person whose resources in a certain field are exhausted or nonexistent". That resource being your money and turn. The 6th defination defines bankrupt as an adjective as "depleted in resources or having completely failed" which is simply defined as losing everything in your posession including your money and resources, such as your turn.

@gsgeek540 1. in which dictionary is bankrupt defined like that?

2. losing a turn is what the "lose a turn" wedge is for, plain and simple.

@DomBellicini i rest my case

[gsgeek540]

@DomBellicini but bankrupt is simply defined as "losing everything in your possession". In said game, You lose your money and prizes but your turn is also in your possession. Is it not? So why wouldn't you lose it too?

[DomBellicini]

@gsgeek540 if you want to lose a turn, there's a wedge for that. if you want to lose your money, that's what the bankrupt wedge is for.

@DomBellicini that show would get cancelled pretty damn quick. hey hit bankrupt and lose nothing because thats logical! haven't you ever watched game shows on youtube? In how about 70% of the clips on here are about contestants losing...so called bloopers.

[DomBellicini]

@gsgeek540 either way--if i were in charge, if you had no money/prizes when you hit bankrupt, you don't lose your turn.

[gsgeek540]

@DomBellicini moneys just figurative. he had a turn to lose..

[DomBellicini]

@DomBellicini same with 1:00

[DomBellicini]

0:18 that bankrupt shouldnt count he had nothing to lose.
