D.J.: And as you can see, you'll need to make at least a pair of Queens to win any points at all. A combination with just a pair of Jacks or Less or no pair at all means we take 5 points away.
Doug: In addition, if you make a natural royal flush at any time in this game, you'll probably win a round and definitely win this.
TGoJS: For your driving enjoyment, IT'S A BRAND NEW CAR! (audience cheers) The Jaguar XK8 Convertible. It comes with every factory option available plus this extra bonus -- CY$100,000 in the trunk!
Doug: Andy, should you not make a royal flush naturally but still win the game outright, you get that car and the cyber-cash. Since you're low man on the totem pole, you'll take control of the screen first. And then we'll just go on down the line with Chris and finally Barry. Champ, you're up first.
Andy: I will take 2, 5, 10, 15, 18
Doug: Okie doke. Let's see what that makes ya...
|
Doug: ...hmmm... pair of Jacks. You'd probably break even with that hand at the casinos -- but you'd lose 5 here. So, ya might want to take that second turn.
Andy: I will keep the Pair Of Jacks, get rid of the 3 others....
Doug: That's basic strategy. Which new three numbers would you like?
Andy: I will take 8, 16 & 22
Doug: OK. At least one Jack will give you the lead. What's there?

Doug: Oh, pretty much same song, different verse.

Doug: Gotta take 5 points away. We'll see you in 5-Card Poker later. Chris, we're going to shuffle the cards on the screen...
|
Doug: ...and now you get to make your selections.
Chris: 1, 3, 7, 13 and 17
Doug: OK. Lots of 1s, 3s and 7s in your selections. Let's see if that brings anything good.
|
Doug: Mercy, we're still on this "pair of Jacks only" theme. Chris, if you stopped here, 5 points will be deducted from your score. So, might as well make exchanges while you have possession.
Chris: Keep the Jacks and replace them with...15,...20 and...23. (crosses fingers)
Doug: Again, basic strategy keeping the fishhooks. Did Chris draw something good among 15, 20 and 23?
|
Doug: Got another Jack, Chris.

Doug: Three of a kind is worth 15 points. Barry, as we shuffle the cards...
|
Doug: ...you need three of a kind for a tie, a straight or better to win the round. It's now your turn to pick five numbers.
Barry: 5,6,15,16,23,24
Doug: Ummm... that's six numbers. Judge, need an assist here.
Judge Von Erik: (over loud speaker) Doug, we'll have to accept his first five numbers and not reveal 24.
Doug: Very well. You heard the man.
Judge Von Erik: Also, Doug, we're detecting a clerical error with one of the questions from this round. We'll have to invite the players eliminated from this game back into the next.
Doug: Oh, OK. Well, that means ya'll can breathe a little easy with hundreds of thousands at stake.
Judge Von Erik: Oh, and guess who did the typing and marking of the questions?
Doug: Oh no.
Judge Von Erik: Yes. Blinky. That's the last time we use the temp agency he works at.
Doug: No kidding. Anyway, back to the game. Let's reveal 5, 6, 15, 16 and 23.
|
Doug: Got just a pair of tens. You'll need to make exchanges.
Barry: I will keep all of the spades....I will take numbers 24 and 10 (sorry about the mistake)
Doug: No problem. Now, you're either going for a straight, a flush or both. If you succeed, you'll win the round. Otherwise it's Chris. Let's see 24 and 10.
|
Doug: 9-10-Jack-Queen-King. That's a straight and a win.
