Doug: Only gives you 5 points. Chico, guess what? You've already won the round. If you lost 5 points on your possession of the video screen, you'd still be our leader. So, with that in mind...

(cards are shuffled on the video screen; after shuffling stops, the cards are covered immediately with the 24 numbers)

 




Doug: ...we'll give you two shots at the car. Pick five numbers please.

Chico: 6, 11, 15, 24... and 9.

Doug: OK, let's see how close you come to a royal flush...

 




(FF reveal sfx)

Doug: Well, you're 3/5 of the way from a royal flush in Clubs and 2/5 away from a royal in Hearts. You could keep the Clubs, the Hearts or trash 'em all and pick five new numbers. What's your pleasure?

Chico: I'm going to drop the hearts and pick up 23 and 3.

Doug: Going for the royal in clubs. If we see a King and Queen of Clubs behind 3 and 23, you're winning a car and 100-grand. Show us...

 




(FF reveal sfx) (Trivia Trap sfx)

Doug: Nope. And you lost 5 but as promised, you still win. (winning bells; audience applause) I'm just curious. What did Chico need for the King and his lady of Clubs?

 




(FF reveal sfx)

Doug: 17 and 20. Well, no 100-thou and car now. But, a chance at CY$5000 as we reset the screen.

 


Doug: There we go. Chico, behind the letters in the word "POKER" are five different amounts of cyber-cash. Lowest amount is CY$500; highest is CY$5000. Pick a letter and whatever amount is behind your selection is yours for the taking.

Chico: Since I'm a pirate soul, I'll go with "Rrrrrrrr...."

(light laughter)

Doug: Oddly enough, we have an audience game called Pirate Poker. We might play that later. As for now, what's behind the R?


Doug: There's CY$1000.

(smooth jazz theme plays)

Doug: And that 1000 is yours to keep regardless of what happens. Alan and Brian, you'll play 5-Card Poker after this break. The winner of that round re-joins Chico for the all important Joker Poker round. Come back and see what happens on Net Poker.
