Not even donate them to charity (which I found a bit odd, but still, understandable). Some in his staff didn't even want him to go back on, but I'm glad he did. I was really surprised with how he went from being the leading player to being in the negative and by the end of the show recouping his losses so effectively. In fact, the last question was "test tube babies" and had he missed it he wouldn't have even made the final.

Thought it was cool.

The longer the game went on, the less sure he seemed. Glad he came back from being in the hole.
