Spelling Bee Champ Advances

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

We reported earlier that 2002 Scripps National Spelling Bee Champion Pratyush Buddiga was in the field today and he just eliminated his last remaining opponent to secure his spot in round two. He told us that the player he was heads up against was a good player, but Buddiga claimed victory when his {a-}{k-} bested the other player's {a-}{8-}.
