You should have put a spoiler alert for west coast viewers where it has not come on yet.....

The OP should also have checked because there has been a long standing thread concerning this player on Viewpoints for a few weeks.

I couldn't believe he was so "off" tonight. Oh, well, time for someone else to enjoy the limelight.

He did look tired today. I think he can be very proud of himself overall. Congrats, Arthur Chu!

I don't think there is anything wrong with OP starting a new thread, happens all the time on these Boards. I scrolled through VP page and did not see it.

The thread was in the middle with others having already posting the outcome of today's results.

And there are 3 threads about Rachel in NJ going home, including one by you, Jane.

Seriously - how important is this that there another thread about Chu? As Hoovermom says, this happens all the time.

It was in very poor taste for her not to put "spoilers" in the title! Or did you not notice that before you jumped on me?

Good grief!

Agree that there is an existing thread and, even more so, it is rude to post spoilers in thread titles, without consideration for people who either are in a different time zone or record shows to watch when they can.

I don't have any investment in this, so it didn't bother me, but the point I made is still valid, just as others here have made it.

Really? That old double standard I see. Did you bother to tell MGM the same thing? Uh no.

Can you read well? Someone already had done so, no need for me to repeat it!

I don't watch daytime TV (game shows). If he won $300,000, why did he lose it all? That seems awful!!

I thought he seemed tired in that last game. Maybe he was just "ready to go."

In any event, I very much enjoyed his run, and was sorry to see him go.

I thought he did a great job.

He was great - I enjoyed him and he is walking away with 300K. Excellent job!

Ford, he did not lose his (nearly) $300,000, he just lost the amount he won yesterday. He bet it all (around $6,000, I think) and was wrong, so he lost only YESTERDAY'S money. He still left the show with close to $300,000.

I agree that it's rude to put spoilers in titles before the show has been seen on the West Coast but to wait around for those who have recorded it and will watch in rerun time is asking too much. They shouldn't complain if they care so little about seeing it that they would record it and allow it to molder for who knows how long before they watch, if they ever do.

Thanks for the response. That makes more sense. Someone here said he lost all of it.

Im the OP and I cant believe the negativity and bickering this caused and for all you people complaining I should have put a spoiler alert, well I posted this days after he lost so if you truly cared about not knowing the outcome you should have already known. I swear some of the posters here come just to pick a fight.
