Rich: The championship's on the line. Dustin and Jason will play Joker Poker where one of them could instantly win CY$10,000 and a trip to San Antonio, Texas. Back to Doug Morris and Net Poker.
Doug: Thank you, Rich. Oh, San Anton. I used to live there and miss it dearly.

Doug: Dustin, Jason, you've each won a round and CY$5000. But now the winner of this round will go on to play Deuces Wild Poker for our CY$75,000 jackpot.
Doug: Dustin cut the cards for this final round. This plays just like 5-Card Poker -- except that there are now two Jokers in the deck. If you get a Joker, you may use it for anything when your hand's complete.
And since five of a kind is possible, five of a kind will also pay off CY$100,000 and the car. So, good luck and let's play our final round with the first two cards for this round. Deej?
D.J.: The Ace of Hearts and the King of Diamonds.
Doug: And here's the first question of the final round. Good luck, gentlemen and here we go...

Doug: Nice how the writers are working my wife into this material. (light laughter from the crew) If you're not aware, I recently married a wonderful woman named Cindy -- who seems to think Jillian, who's the show's other trainer, looks constantly constipated.
Doug: And I tend to agree. Who wrote this question, anyway?
(D.J. whistles and looks at the ceiling) (more laughs)
Doug: Shoulda known! Which card, Dustin?
Dustin: I like the look of that king, and so far my instinct has paid off pretty well.
(a few groans from the crowd)
Doug: Well, perhaps he's got a feeling...
DUSTIN
JASON
Doug: ...after all, he cut the cards for this round. So time will tell if he made the right move. Jason looks happy he got an Ace out of this transaction. Let's see two more cards.
D.J.: The 10 of Clubs and the 10 of Spades.
Doug: Two black 10s. But also 10 important points at stake with this...
Teresa Heinz Kerry, the wife of the junior U.S. senator from Massachusetts,...
\ is currently married to a Democrat
\ was previously married to a Republican
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Jason.
Jason: All of the above.
Doug: That's the right choice.

Doug: She's currently married to John Kerry -- and was previously married to H. John Heinz III. That previous marriage ended under the terms of "'til death do us part". Which card, Jason?
Jason: Hmm, does it really matter?
Doug: Not really. But it's in my contract to ask.
Jason: There's just something about spades, so I'll take the spade.
Doug: Spades you want, Spades you get.
DUSTIN
JASON
Doug: And we get two more cards.
D.J.: The 9 of Spades and the Joker.
(a few hoots and hollers from the crowd)
Doug: So, this 10-pointer's *really* important...
Blues legend B.B. King has performed at least one song with...
\ Eric Clapton
\ U2
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Jason.
Jason: All of the above.
Doug: Yes, indeed. (audience applause)The blues legend performed "Riding With The King" with Eric Clapton and "When Love Comes To Town" with U2. OK, Jason, which card?
Jason: Should I be a sportsman? Nah, not with a chance at CY$75K on the line. :-) I'll take the joker.
Doug: Seizing the moment...
DUSTIN
JASON
Doug: ...Jason with potentially two Aces. Dustin with the makings of a straight. Four pair of cards coming.
D.J.: The Joker and the King of Clubs.
(a few groans from the crowd)
Doug: Oh, and let me explain why they're groaning. The Joker from the previous pair of up cards was the sixth card from the top of the deck. This Joker is the seventh card. So a different cut of the cards could've yielded a chance at CY$5000 with double Joker. But, anyway, let's get back to the game with this...
A Bloody Mary is...
\ a drink made with tomato juice
\ named after Queen Mary II
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Dustin.
Dustin: A drink made with tomato juice.
Doug: Right.

Doug: Drink's named after Queen Mary I. Dustin, you needed those points. Which card?
Dustin: Hopefully I'll be drinking one in celebration of either winning, or my birthday, after choosing the Joker.
Doug: Well, that could be arranged...
DUSTIN
JASON
Doug: ...our director, Nelson, is a certified mixologist. In any event, it's blind card time...
Doug: There are the last two cards for this round. Chime in with the right answer and you'll win 15 points plus choose a card. Here we go...

\ Jerry Springer
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Dustin.

Doug: That's right.

Doug: Greg was the original host. Jerry hosted a Talk Soup special with clips from Jerry Springer. Naturally. OK, Dustin, you've got the important control. Which card do you think will win you the round?
Dustin: I'm a lefty, and there's a saying about lefties being in their right minds, so I'll take the left card.
DUSTIN
JASON
Doug: OK, we have the cards in place. We're about to crown our new champion. Dustin, we'll start with you. Deej, flip his last card over please.
DUSTIN
JASON
Doug: Another 9. With the Joker, you have three 9s. Jason, in order to become our new champion, your last card must be an Ace, King or 10 for a better three of a kind or a Queen or Jack for a straight.
You
