Title: Another Joker's Wild question
Post by: catnap1972 on August 12, 2013, 08:53:52 AM

Contestant has $975 in Face the Devil and goes for the one last spin (since it\'s either a win or the Devil) and a triple comes up.  Do they get whatever the value of the windows that comes up or just the $1000 (since it\'s considered an \"automatic win\")?

From what I\'ve seen on the episodes under this scenario, it automatically reverts to a $1,000 win - however, since Jack Barry seemingly changed the rules on a whim, it could depend on the day....

at various times you would score $1,000 and other times you\'d score the total value (so conceivably over $1,500.

I know it changed from $1,000 to face value, and I\'m pretty sure it was during the syndicated run. I\'m not aware of it ever changing back.

I think I saw one on YT where the value of the spin was added to the total.  So it came to $1100 instead of $1000.
