Doug: At the midway point in the round, one of our champions, Michael, has the lead with 40 points. Robert with 30. Dustin, you're low man on the totem pole -- but you start first as we go to D.J.
D.J.: Thank you, Doug. Before we go on, I want to take a moment to congratulate you. This spring, Doug is marking his 10th year as host of Rock 104 RockTrax on WXRR-FM.
Doug: Thanks, Deej. It's a humbling milestone.
D.J.: Well, you make my Sunday and the Sundays of many others here in South Mississippi.
Doug: You're gonna make an old man cry if you keep this up! (audience laughs)
D.J.: OK, Doug. Again, congratulations.
Doug: Thanks.

D.J.: Players, you've each played before and have each won at least one game before. So I'll briefly refresh your memory by telling you pick five numbers off the board. If you like the hand you've made, take the points associated with the combination and pass control to another player. If not, make exchanges -- but know your possession ends after the second chance.
![]()
D.J.: And you'll remember these as the combinations. That ever elusive royal flush is still worth 1000 points.
Doug: Also, if you make a natural royal flush in this or any other round, you win CY$100,000 plus this rather spiffy prize.
Rich: For your driving enjoyment, IT'S A BRAND NEW CAR! (audience cheers) Go off-road in style in this Porsche Cayenne Turbo. It comes complete with six-speed manual transmission, a 500 horsepower engine, a huge 15 square-foot sectioned glass sunroof, a rearview camera and much more.
(music fades)
Doug: Great car indeed. Michael, all of that will be yours if you don't make a royal flush this round -- but do win Joker Poker later. Dustin, as promised, you take command of the screen. Pick five numbers please.
Dustin: Let's go for 4, 7, 19, 21, and 22.
![]()
Doug: Well, you've got a pair of 10s and a pair of Jacks. Worth a total of 10 additional points. That would secure 3rd place for this round -- and I don't think you'd want that. So one or more exchanges are in order. How do you play it?
Dustin: I'll keep the Hearts, and draw #16 and #21.
Doug: Um, you've already picked 21. I'll give you another shot.
Dustin: (bumps head against podium) Well, maybe not that one, then... 24.
(light laughter from the crowd)
Doug: Listen, whatever your drinking, I want a sip of it. (more chuckles) OK, ditch the Diamonds, fellers, and show us 16 and 21 -- er 24. (more chuckles)

Doug: Oooh! So close. If that King were of Hearts, you'd have 25 additional points...

Doug: ...instead, I gotta dock you five. We'll see you next round. Robert, you're about to play. We've gotta shuffle up first...
![]()
Doug: ...and now, you may pick five numbers.
Robert: 3, 4, 5, 8 and 9
![]()
Doug: Well. (smattering of applause) Three Aces. Great start, Robert. Now, three of a kind is worth 15 additional points and you'd take the lead with Michael still to take possession. So, you make take the 15 points and stop -- or make some exchanges.
Robert: Change the 10 with #10
Doug: OK, assuring yourself of three of a kind. If #10 hides a Queen, you've got a full boat. Another Ace and you'll win 125 *YOOGE* points. What's behind #10?
![]()
Doug: Neither a Queen nor an Ace.
