Joker Poker Doug: And welcome back to Net Poker. Time for the Joker Poker round. Joe's going for the undefeated championship -- trying to add CY$100,000 and a new car in addition to CY$18,500 and the Jamaican holiday he won in the last round. John's going to try and thwart that -- as he wants to add to the CY$1000 he collected in the first round.
Before we start this important round, we have an announcement to make. We've changed the way how a player can win a vacation. We'll talk about that when a winner is declared. But, the least we can tell you is this -- tonight's champion could win this.
TGoJS: A trip to Walt Disney World. (audience cheers) It's a small world after all when you and a guest fly round trip coach to Orlando, Florida for a six-night stay at the Disney Caribbean Beach Resort. You'll also receive two 4-day hopper passes to the Magic Kingdom, EPCOT Center, the MGM Studios and the Animal Kingdom. Yes, if you're tonight's Net Poker champion, you could be saying, "I'm going to Disney World!" Compliments of Club Universe.
Doug: Disney World, eh? Hmmm... wonder who came up with *THAT* idea? (audience laughs) In any event, we'll play that new prize game later -- and then afterwards someone plays for CY$62,500 in Deuces Wild Poker.
John cut the cards during the break since he won the first round. Let's start this big round -- with what?
D.J.: The Queen of Spades and the 9 of Hearts.
Doug: Queen and a 9 and this 10-point question coming. Good luck, may the force be with you and away we go...
The musical group War...
\ had a hit with the song "Low Rider"
\ was first known as Night Shift
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: John.
John: all of the above
Doug: Not the right answer. Joe, chance to steal the points and control if you can tell me.
Joe: Had a hit with the song "Low Rider."
Doug: That's right.

Joe: (singing) All my friends/know the low rider/the low rider/rides a little higher :D
(Doug tries to whistle the chorus line) (audience laughs)
Doug: OK, enough Net Star Search. Back to Net Poker. Which card?
Joe: Take the Queen, please, Doug.
Doug: BTW, back to War, they were first known as Creator, then Night Shift, then War. With that said, the lady in black belongs to Joe...
JOHN
JOE
Doug: ...and John receives the 9 in the process. Let's look at the next cards from the top of the deck as they come on down.
D.J.: The 10 of Hearts and the Joker.
Doug: Well, a wild card at stake on this question. Next query...
In the year 1932, mobster Al Capone...
\ was convicted of income tax evasion
\ entered a federal penitentiary in Atlanta
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Joe.
Joe: entered a federal penitentiary in Atlanta
Doug: Not the right choice. John, chance to steal.
John: all of the above
Doug: Yup, tax evasion's why he ended up in Atlanta's crossbar hotel. We're tied. (audience applause) OK, John, tough choice that it is, which card?
John: I like to have the JOKER!
Doug: Thought you'd might.
JOHN
JOE
Doug: BTW, I've been in remiss in noting this. If a player makes five of a kind in this round, that's also worth CY$100,000 and a car. Next cards on the way.
D.J.: The 10 of Clubs and the Ace of Clubs.
Doug: Well, so much for a five of a kind. Oh well, back to the questions and this...
In Sweden, the "tomte" is a...
\ Christmas gnome
\ winter dessert
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: John.
John: none of the above
Doug: Not the right choice. Joe, chance to steal.
Joe: a Christmas gnome
Doug: That's right.
JOHN JOE ![]()

Doug: OK, Joe, you lead now, 20-to-10. And you control the cards. Which one would you like?
Joe: I just can't give him two Aces. I'll take the Ace.
Doug: Fair enough.
JOHN
JOE
Doug: With that said and done, Joe's 3/5 of the way toward a straight. John potentially has a pair of 10s. Next cards are coming down the chute.
D.J.: The Queen of Clubs and the King of Spades.
Doug: Two face cards up for grabs. Let's test your sports knowledge this time.
The original eight teams in the American Football League, when it was formed in 1959, included the...
\ Los Angeles Raiders
\ New York Jets
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: John.
John: none of the above
Doug: That's right! (audience applause) The Raiders were in Oakland at the time -- and the New York team was the Titans. The remaining six: Houston Oilers, Buffalo Bills, Boston Patriots, Los Angeles Chargers, Dallas Texans and Denver Broncos. OK, John, we're tied at 20. Which card?
John: GIVE ME THE KING OF SPADES!
Doug: Dude, no need to shout. I'm right here. (audience laughs)
JOHN
JOE
Doug: And with that, John has potentially a pair of Kings. Joe is building on a pair of Queens. And we've got the blind card question to come.
Doug: We're playing for 15 points this time around and the choice of the left or the right card. Control of the cards is what you're really after. Good luck, play carefully and here we go...
The TV series Baywatch debuted...
\ on CBS
\ in the year 1987
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Joe.
Joe: none of the above
Doug: Correct.
JOHN JOE ![]()

Doug: Baywatch started on NBC in 1989. Now, Joe, you control the cards. This choice could determine whether or not you clinch that fourth berth in the Quarter Million Playoff. Which card would you like?
Joe: Gimme the left card (and a Joker, I hope).
Doug: A Joker, you hope...
JOHN
JOE
Doug: ...will it be a Joker you get? We'll find out in just seconds. Joe, in order to have a chance to win this game, that fifth card must be a Queen or the other Joker. Anything else and you'll end up with just two Queens and considering John has at worst two Kings, he would become the new champion.
Is
Joe's
final
card
in
this
round
a
red
Queen
or
is
it
a
Joker?
JOHN
JOE
Doug: It's a Queen! (smattering of applause) Now, we turn to John's fifth card. A King or will give him a better three of a kind; a Jack, Queen or Joker will give him a straight. Anything other than a face card or Joker for John Montagnino -- and Joe Van Ginkel will win CY$100,000 and a new car plus play for CY$250,000 in the tournament.
D.
J.,
please
go

and

John's
