The players at The Willmore Wine Bar know how to keep a game interesting, that much is certain. 'Larry's a Pimp' grabbed their lead in the second round with a successful Double or Nothing, and maintained that lead to the very end with an impressive 55 points. But the true competition was between the bottom three teams, who spent the entire game trading places between 2nd and 3rd place. By the 6th round, it looked as though 'Quoth the Raven' had solidified their 2nd place victory with 36 points, while 'Quid Pro Paleo' and 'Massholes' were tied for third at 27 points each. But then, an upset. 'Quoth the Raven' earned 0 points in a failed Double or Nothing in Round 7, while 'Quid Pro Paleo' aced the round for 10 points, and 'Massholes' earning 10 points with the late addition of their 2 point registered team bonus. The race for 2nd place was tight, with 'Quid Pro Paleo' and 'Massholes' tied with 37 points. And Quoth the Raven, just 1 point shy at 36 points.

The tie breaking question was given, "How many lights are included in the record for most Christmas lights on a residential property?". The answers were submitted. 'Massholes' guessed 236,000. 'Quid Pro Paleo' guessed 250,000. A difference of just 14,000 lights. The true answer, 502,165, put 'Quid Pro Paleo' into 2nd place with just a single point.

The scores for the bottom three teams were a numerically pleasing 36, 37 and 38.
