Every once in a while you will come across a question that, if you get it right, allows you to answer a bonus question. When this happens, bet more than $10,000 and get the question right. You can only bet up to the amount of money you have, so you'll need a score of at least $10,000. If the question is tough, pause the game so you can think longer or visit an online crossword dictionary like oneacross.com.
