As is often the case, it was all about the strategic use of the double-or-nothing option that determined our winners this week at Pizza Press in NoHo.

Our winning team, Hi!, jumped out to an early lead with successful doubles in the first two rounds. But our 2nd place finishers, 10 Points to Gryffindor! (that's one of 'em looking forlorn in photo #1) could have been the winners last night if they had opted to double in the 5th, 6th or 7th rounds.

That's right! They answered all questions correctly in the final three rounds, but didn't go for the double, thereby surrendering up to 30 points!! Ouch! Forlorn, indeed. (Check out photo #6 for a visual illustration of what beauty+regret looks like!)

On a happier note, Fam Squad (photos 3 & 4 above) executed an excellent come-from-behind double in the final round to score 20 points and take 3rd place by one point over The Cider House Rules. (Photos 2 and 9 above).

Finally, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Whatchutawkinaboutwillis - two of the nicest people you'd ever wanna meet - who played with spirit and enthusiasm, and gave us a pair of winning smiles in photo #7 above.

Thanks everyone for a delightful night at Pizza Press. See ya next week.
