In fact, there was one that had a devastating result:- Genelle drew a Challenge card that allowed her to nominate anybody to attend the insolvency court. Her ultimately successful strategy was to pick the current competition leader (me) for the bankruptcy hearing, and he was found insolvent!  He had to hand back an impressive array of properties and all his cash, a disaster from which he never fully recovered, and which possibly contributed to his <strong>WHP<\/strong> and loss of the lead.  There were also other players who never quite recovered from being bankrupted, but <strong>Wayne<\/strong> managed to recover pretty well despite several visits to the court.
