Doug: Dustin, stand by. You'll play for CY$10,000 and that San Antonio vacation in a moment. Jason, I hate to see someone be the victim of a bad beat -- and that's exactly what we have here.
Jason: Yikes, bad beat is right. Talk about defeat snatched from the jaws of victory.
Doug: Well, the good part is you're certainly not leaving here a loser. You won five-grand in the first round and CY$10 a point in this round -- for a grand total of CY$5200. You take that along with all this applause.

Doug: OK, Dustin. As the newly-crowned champ, you now get to choose *two* letters in the word "POKER". Uncover CY$5000 and CY$2000 and I'll kick in an extra three-grand for a total CY$10,000 payoff.
Dustin: Wow! OK, let's start with the "K."
Doug: The K. What's there?

Doug: Man alive! (audience cheers) You and Jason found the big ones today. Next letter.
Dustin: We'll go for the "R."
Doug: The R. If there's CY$2000 behind R, you'll have CY$15,000 in total winnings. Let's see it.

Doug: Thanks, Rich. Dustin, the video screen has just dealt you the King of Spades and four other cards hidden behind the numbers. Above those cards, there's a prompt that says "select higher card". Obviously, you want to draw an Ace. Draw an Ace and you're off to San Antonio.
Dustin: 1-in-4 shot. Hmm... I'll choose card number 2.
Doug: Well -- ya never know. There may be more than one Ace up there. At least the computer assures us this particular tasks is doable. Let's see if there's an Ace behind #2.

Doug: Who cares about the other numbers, Dustin. You found an Ace and are off to San Antonio. (smooth jazz theme plays) Question is -- are we sending him to Texas with an extra CY$75,000? Come back and find out.
