GAMBLE PAYS OFF FOR GILROY MAN ON THIS WEEK’S “MAKE ME A MILLIONAIRE”
November 14, 2009
SACRAMENTO - "Make Me a Millionaire," the California Lottery’s TV game show, awarded 12 lucky contestants a total of $194,000 in cash and prizes on this week’s show.
Surinder Kaur of Sacramento started the show off by successfully completing the Lucky Penny game, netting herself a new car – but that was just the beginning. The big winner of the day, Arthur Barron of Gilroy, finished the first stage of Safe Cracker with $32,000 and had to decide whether to press on and risk half his cash. “I wanted to go for it,” he said. And go for it he did – Barron found a doubler and walked away with an impressive $64,000. He plans to use his winnings to pay some bills and buy a new car for his wife.
In the Millionaire game, Carl Cardarelli took home $30,000. After getting an early strike, he gamely pressed on despite the discomfort associated with a severed Achilles that he suffered playing basketball. “I was going to go for it the whole way,” he said. Cardarelli plans to use his winnings to take a relaxing vacation.
With the progressive jackpot increasing $200,000 each week, next week’s Millionaire game contestant will have a chance to win $1.8 million.
