Suggested rule change: If you hit the Daily Double, you have to bet it all. Alternately, if you bet it all and get it right, you get three times. My point is, I want people to go all in on Daily Doubles. I'm pretty sure Alex would agree.

Hello,

Second-guessing the strategy of people with the Daily Double is more fun - no mandatory wagers.

I like the idea of the DD being something that maybe a person doesn't want to land on. Someone up 20000 to 1000 lands on a DD and bets 100. No way, that's lame. But having to risk all 20000 either means a huge payday or disaster. These smartypants need to play Russian Roulette with their "oh, I know all about 18th century northern Bulgarian opera" claims.
