Player Suffers Injury On Game Show Set

Was Pain Worth The Gain For The Price Is Right Player?

For this recent The Price Is Right player, he ended up making the right call. His first money total was $250, which he passed up. His second total was $5,000, which he kept. Finally, his third total was $1,000. So, despite the pain to his wrist, he made out with the highest money total of his three options. So, overall, this was not bad for a day’s work.

The highest amount that players can win on this game is $25,000, but, the statistics to even grab that one are rare. So, the fact that this player made it out with $5,000 was certainly a good deal.

  • One The Price Is Right commenter said: “5K ain’t bad at all congratulations Albert.”
  • A second game show commenter chimed in, saying: “I have never seen anyone $25k on this game.”
  • A third commenter added: “This is my favorite. I hope if I was ever a contestant I would get this game. Love how you win something no matter what.”
