Andrew $400
Jen $200
Sandy $0
Andrew bet $1,000. His clue: In 1974 he sued & stopped the sale of a book of his “complete uncollected short stories”. Andrew went for Stephen King and fell to -$600.
He did recover pretty well, getting six clues before the break to take the lead! Scores after 15:
Andrew $3,000
Jen $1,800
Sandy $1,000
Andrew, after watching curling at the Olympics, joined his college team! They won nationals (with him as second) his first year on the team, but to him, it seemed harded as skip!
Sandy didn’t have much buzzer luck over this round. She only got in twice! Andrew kept a reasonable lead over our champ; scores after 30:
Andrew $5,400
Jen $4,400
Sandy $1,600
DJ! round categories:

“L” ON EARTH
Most of this round belonged to Andrew. He got the first Daily Double, under WORKS OF ART $1600 (Quelle surprise!) Scores:
Andrew $7,400
Jen $4,400
Sandy $1,600
Andrew bet $2,500. His clue: Klimt’s last major project was a set of murals in this type of design, containing pieces of glass, gems, gold & enamel. His correct response put him at $9,900!
Andrew got to the second betting clue, too, under “L” ON EARTH $1600! Scores:
Andrew $11,500
Jen $6,000
Sandy $-400
Andrew went for $4,000 this time! His clue: Grand Duke Henri reigns in this European nation whose name means “little fortress”. His correct response put him at $15,500!
Of Jen’s six gets of the round, her get on the penultimate clue kept Andrew from a lock gaem! Sandy actually went on a mini run too, getting three clues on the trot, to make her score more respectable going into Final! Scores going into Final:
Andrew $16,700
Jen $9,200
Sandy $4,400
FJ category: AMERICAN LITERATURE
FJ clue: Published in 1925, it still sells 500,000 copies a year & was on the bestseller lists in 2013
Sandy 4400 + 4000 = 8800
Jen 9200 + 9200 = 18400
Andrew 16700 – 1700 = 15000
So, Jen is now a 2 day champ! I like Andrew’s bet, though!
See you Monday!
