Gameplay
Two couples, one pair being the returning champions, competed. The couples answered questions to spin a series of five "spinners" — rapidly-changing eggcrate readouts that flashed numbers from 1 to 6 at the rate of 17 digits per second — to build a Yahtzee-type hand.
With each correct answer, each spinner randomly flashed the numbers rapidly and were stopped by pressing a button. The couple could keep the hand shown, or reject some or all of the numbers and earn up to two opportunities to improve the hand (but must gain control with a correct answer). If the couple kept the hand, the opposing couple had one chance to better the hand. The couple with the top hand received one of the following payoffs:
Hand | Award |
---|---|
One Pair | $50 |
Two Pair | $75 |
Three of a Kind | $100 |
Straight | $125 |
Full House | $150 |
Four of a Kind | $175 |
Five of a Kind | $200 + bonus prize |
The first couple to amass $250 (originally $200) won the game and advanced to the Super Spin-Off bonus round. Both couples kept their money and bonus prizes.
