If you ever go on "Wheel of Fortune" and manage to make it to the final round, choose the letters G, H, P and O, says Wonkblog's Chris Ingraham. A quick refresher: The contestant who wins the most money during regular play on "Wheel of Fortune" gets to try a bonus puzzle at the end of the show. Vanna White automatically flips over the letters R, S, T, L, N and E, and then you get to choose three more consonants and a vowel before solving the puzzle. Ingraham's analysis of 1,546 "Wheel of Fortune" episodes between 2007 and 2014 shows that different letters appear at much different frequencies in that bonus puzzle. You'll notice that all the letters that Vanna gives you (R, S, T...) are relatively under-represented in the puzzle. So are the letters that people choose most often -- C, D, M and A. It turns out that the three consonants and the vowel that will give you the best odds of winning are G, H, P and O -- compared with CDMA, you're twice as likely to get four or more letters revealed, and half as likely to get nothing
