TPiR 1/8

I don't find this game related, but following the first pricing game, as the contestant walked off the stage, for a split second, you could see another guy directing him off stage. It really only showed half the guy's body, but I'm sure it was just the camera panning a tad too far.  

My question is, who was the guy?

I believe that was TPIR producer Roger Dobkowitz.

It was in fact Roger Dobkowitz.  Roger greets each and every contestant as they leave the stage with a big smile, win or lose.

 This shot caught my eye as well and not because someone was directing the contestant. Usually after Bob makes his little shpiel about how he'll be back after the message, they either show a still shot of the contestant's face when s/he wins or loses or fade to black. This time, we were treated to a post win reaction shot. This is either a new thing, as Randy West has mentioned that they have been experimenting with new camera angles during the showcase showdown or it was just a mistake. Either way, I thought it was a good touch.

It was neither--they've done this before with contestants who are especially happy about winning.

Yeah, and some of the *BIGGER* contestants who would like to hug Bob are usually directed by Bob to hug Roger instead :-)
