Was watching an episode a few days ago and a scenario like this occurred:
First trip to the Winner's Circle: $750 win
Second trip to the Winner's Circle: $25,000 win
I always thought that contestants would keep the smaller consolation money won even if they won the $25,000 on their second trip (ie, total of $25,750). However, when the scores were being recapped at the end of the show, the big winner was said to have had only $25,000.
Were they wrong in the recap or was this how it was always done?
