Duchy is not a prize.  When you play Tournament and reveal a Province, this is 
what happens.

1) You choose "Gain Prize" or "Gain Duchy".
2a) If you choose "Gain Duchy", you gain a Duchy (unless the Duchy pile is 
empty, in which case nothing happens).
2b) If you choose "Gain Prize", you choose a prize and gain it.

Okay, thanks for the explanation. I now realize what's happening here is a very 
surprising decision by "QuickPlay."  

I expect QuickPlay to make obvious moves for me -- for example, the fact that 
it chooses to reveal the Province for me didn't shock me too much.  However, 
automatically limiting my choices to only Prizes is just wrong.  Especially 
because it would cost absolutely nothing in the UI to just include Duchy in the 
set of things I can select -- but even if there was a cost I think it would 
still be wrong.

Please reopen?
