She visited five different persons again tonight starting with new member Don Russell  in his game three then jumped to Carl "The Wizard" Schaefer hands in his game four. Along came Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest in her game five and claimed her for a short while before J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast grabbed her in his game five. Next game six came and Mike "Mr. Quiznos" Clapper latched on to her to keep her for the rest of the evening and collect the 24 Hand Pot.
