TGoJS: From Studio 63, welcome to the card game where high hands can bring high rewards. This is Net Poker. (audience cheers) And now here's the star of our show, Doug Morris!
(Doug walks out from behind the video poker screen)
Doug: Thank you, ghost of Jay Stewart. Hellooooooo, everybody, and welcome to Net Poker. We're welcoming back a champion with CY$8750 -- and we're also welcoming back his two challengers due to a scoring error in Round 1. We'll meet them all in a moment but first here's our dealer, D.J. Hamilton.
(audience cheers) (Deej walks out wearing the same black one-piece swimsuit, white tuxedo jacket and top hat from the last show)
D.J.: Hi everyone.
Doug: Well, deja vu all over again in the wardrobe department, eh?
D.J.: Well, ya know, I thought I'd do my part to speed up getting one game done and start taping the next. Besides, I managed to get a guy's phone number after the show. So, this must be working.
Doug: Huh boy. Well, anyway, who's back to play with us?
D.J.: Building on CY$5000 is Noiel Spearman, building on CY$350 is Tom Krueger and our champ Robert McBride is building on CY$8250.

Doug: Once again, we've got five multiple choice questions for you. Each toss-up question is worth another 10 points. After we've played the five questions, we'll let you each have a turn at the video screen for bonus points. For now, hands on the buzzers and here we go...

Doug: Robert.
Robert: Have played a celebrity version of Jeopardy!

Doug: FWIW, Keith and Chris appear on MSNBC. Keith hosts Countdown and Chris for years has hosted Hardball. When Keith was a contestant on Celebrity Jeopardy!, he had ended his first stint with MSNBC and was just reviving his sports journalism career with Fox Sports Net. In any event, here's the next question...
Walter Mosley wrote the colorfully titled...

Doug: I've seen you try to buzz in; the others have been beating you to the punch. By the way, Detroit and Miami are in the same time zone; so, 6:00 in Miami also means 6:00 in the motor city. OK, one more question -- and oddly enough, we're dealing with cards here.
D.J.: (groans) Oh, Doug, you did it again.
Doug: What?
D.J.: *Dealing* with cards? (audience laughs)
Doug: Honest, it wasn't intentional. Anyway, final question...

\ represented Alexander the Great
\ all of the above
\ none of the above
Doug: Noiel.
Noiel: is also known as "the suicide king"
Doug: Correct.
