$100,000 Tournament of Champions
Toward the end of the show's run, 21 $10,000 bonus round winners were invited back to play for $100,000. The following changes were made for the tournament:
- Each game was played for a flat $3,000, and there were no bonuses awarded for the first two rounds. The endgame was still played for an additional $10,000. The seven winners and the two players who came closest to winning competed in the semifinals.
- In the final match, the two losing contestants received $2,500. The winner of the tournament received $10,000 and played the bonus round one final time for the $100,000 top prize, which they were unsuccessful in winning.
