From one Don to another:
No option on the CBS version.

Aaron, I'm counting on you to come through for me on April 12th with your game show milestones as one my all-time faves bowed on that date in 1976.

Also note that if the contestant gave an illegal clue in the betting word, the word was thrown out and it was "no bet".[/quote]

So every contestant should have bet it all, and then given an illegal clue when the clock hit 1? That's as bad as the "deduct 20%" Alphabetics rule--"just say XYLOPHONE and you'll win $4000, partner".
