I need some help with my hangman game, whenever I put in a word like "gas" the game works fine but when I type in a word like "pool" it doesn't work. So I can't win if the word has two same letters. If you could help me that would be much appreciated.
Here is the code:

Is there any way to search for duplicate letters?
