All righty everyone. This *really* will be the last game of Net Poker before my wedding.
Joe Van Ginkel's the champ -- having won CY$10,000 with five of a kind in the last endgame. Want to get in his way of winning the bonus jackpot and possibly win it yourself? You first step is to come close enough to this query's answer...
In a recent survey, men were asked to name their biggest career regret. What percentage of the men surveyed say they regretted an office affair -- which could have held them back or ended up getting them fired?
(time passes)
Sheesh, have we learned anything from the first Apprentice series? Nick and Amy's showmance certainly didn't get either one of them the gig with The Donald. With that said, the right percentage is...
QUALIFYING ANSWER |
...23%. Let's see who's the closest...
Tom Sabbatelli 22%
...hey there! Sharp shootin', Tex! First time Tom plays a qualifier and he makes it on to the big stage. Also challenging Joe is...
John Montagnino 25% Stephen Pallo 25%
...one of these folks. We break this tie by determining who locked in 25 sooner and it is...
Stephen Pallo 25%
...Stephen. John, next time we play Net Poker is in the summertime. Meantime, Joe takes on Tom and Stephen after this.
====================================================================== Voice guy: "The Undersea World of Spongebob Squarepants" (audience laughs) will not be seen tonight -- so that we may bring you the following. Speaking of "Undersea", where's that D.J. Hamilton swimsuit calendar? ======================================================================
The ghost of Jay Stewart: 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: Thanks, Ghost of Jay Stewart. Helloooooooooo, everybody. And welcome to Net Poker. We crowned a new champion on the last program, he won a lot of cyber-money and wants to win much more. Two challengers have an eye on stealing his crown. Here to introduce all the players is the lovely, the talented, D.J. Hamilton.
(D.J. walks out wearing a black shirt and black slacks)
D.J.: Hi, everyone. Well, Doug, this is it. The last Net Poker before wedding bells ring for you and Cindy.
Doug: Well, thanks Deej.
D.J.: There's a little something more to that in a moment. First, our players tonight are Stephen Pallo, Tom Sabbatelli and our champion with CY$13,750, Joe Van Ginkel.

D.J.: Before we start Video Poker, as many of you know, Joe and I now make up the cast of Net ShowDown. Before the show, we had Joe swear on a boxing glove that he has no advanced knowledge of any of the questions to be asked. And Doug, the questions in this first round of play involve one of your fiancée's TV shows.
Doug: Survivor?
D.J.: No.
Doug: Ohio State's football coach's show?
D.J.: Not quite. Think the women of Wisteria Lane. (Desperate Housewives theme plays in the background) That's right, it's Video Poker's salute to Desperate Housewives.
Doug: (laughs) Oh, man, was this your idea?
D.J.: Of course! I'm just a big a fan. Doug will name an actress from the show and then show you two facts. You'll have to identify whether one, both or neither of the facts apply to the actress. And, each time you buzz in with the right answer, you get 10 points. After five questions, we'll go to the video screen for more points.
(DH theme fades)
Doug: And of course, we'll start each of you off with 10 points.
ADVANCE TO VIDEO POKER
