The top-row DD in DJ was the interesting part of this show. Top-row DD should be an automatic all-in every time. If Renee did that, she would have been at $32K to Mattea's $22K. Wouldn't have changed the outcome given the responses (presuming proper wagers), but Ken would have had something to talk about going into FJ about Mattea being behind. Last top row DD I remember was one of Amodio's shows late last season where they had a drawing from the Invisible Man or some other novel. Same thing happened with 2nd place person getting it right and I think got close enough to make Matt have to play Final that show.
