Since there are 10 Whammies inhabiting 9 squares on the board, there's about an 18% chance of hitting a Whammy on any given R2 spin. And since it's clear that nobody is scanning the board to wait for a soft board to come up, that means that a player is a 55% favorite to hit at least one Whammy when 4 spins have been passed to them. That may change if they start staggering the board rotations in Season 2 so all 18 squares don't change at exactly the same time.
Peggy struck me as the only player out of the entire crop this season that played with any semblance of a strategy, as evidenced by the way she talked through her last spin of the front game. Really hope to see more of that when the show comes back - PYL is deceptively robust when it comes to the variables of making that play/pass decision.
