Wheel of Fortune (The wheel's configuration)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The wheel used in the main game of the Wheel of Fortune has a configuration that features 24 wedges, each wedge having 3 positions. The current dollar configurations, listed below, begin at the $300 wedge to the immediate left of the Lose-a-Turn wedge. The wheel remains static from round 4 onward, with various wedges changing in and out in prior rounds. The prize, gift tag, 25, Free Spin, Wild Card, and Bankrupt/$10,000/Bankrupt all come off the wheel if successfully earned in the game, at which point the dollar value listed in the speed up column becomes effective.
