Sorry, \*\* Kneadtoknow\*\*, but I beat you to that one! Ha! (Thank God I have a job that enables me to check this page every 30 seconds or so.) 🙂

So is everyone agreed that $566,400 is the correct and final answer? Assuming the new dollar amounts and that it would be possible to have all 3 Daily Doubles in the lowest dollar rows, of course.

You’re an impressive bunch, I’ll always give you that. It’s amazing what you people are capable of when you’re trying to avoid work.

As far as I’m concerned, $566,400.00 works for me. Thanks.

For some reason, I alwats thought it was more, even in the olden days. Go figure.
