Doug: The 9 of Hearts. Robert's two Jacks beat Eddie's two nines. Robert's still our champion.

Doug: Guys, that was one exciting and well-played round. Robert, we'll give you a chance to win CY$10,000 and the San Francisco trip in a moment. Eddie, we hope you had fun. You take CY$10 for every point you've scored this round. Grand total of CY$2350, an hors d'oeuvres and some nice gifts backstage. Eddie Timanus, everyone.

Doug: Robert, let's crunch the numbers for a moment. As you know, there's a CY$5000 prize behind one of the letters in the word "POKER", also there's a CY$2000 prize and the lowest is CY$500. For winning the game, you get to pick two letters.
If you can uncover CY$2000, we know you'll be playing for a berth in the Quarter Million Playoff. The worst that could happen is you'd end up winning CY$2500 this round, your total winnings would exceed CY$10,000 and if you hit the CY$90,000 jackpot, you'd crack the 100-grand barrier and be in the tourney. So, two important picks of the letters. Go ahead and make your selections, please.
Robert: P and the R for Public Relations.
(a few laughs from the crew)
Doug: Forgive my staff, Robert. They're not laughing at you. The explanation hits home for a variety of reasons -- of which we have no time to explain. Anyhoo, let's see what's behind the letters.
|
Doug: CY$5500! (audience cheers) Well, you'll play for a berth in the playoff in Deuces Wild. Before that, let's play for a trip.
|
Doug: All right, we have the Ace of Hearts as your base card. Four other cards are hidden behind the numbers. Prompt is "select same suit". So, if you can draw another Heart, you win this.
Rich: A trip to San Francisco. (audience cheers) You and a guest will fly round trip coach to San Francisco, California -- home base for the '80s game show "Starcade". See the Golden Gate Bridge, visit Fisherman's Wharf and ride the famous trolley cars. All in the city by the bay -- San Francisco. It's a six-night stay at a luxury hotel -- compliments of Club Universe.
And, Robert, game shows wouldn't be game shows without this prize associated with San Francisco. Win the trip and you'll receive as a bonus gift -- a year's supply of Rice-a-Roni. (more cheers) Cooks up so quick and so easy. The one you sautée and simmer for flavor perfection. Rice-a-Roni -- the San Francisco Treat.
(music fades)
Doug: All right, great prize package. Which is a magic number?
Robert: #1
Doug: Numero uno. Does he go to San Francisco?
|
Doug: Not on our dime. What was the magic number?
|
Doug: Oooh, we had two good ones; 2 and 3 would've sent you to San Francisco.

Doug: Robert got to see how the first Quarter Million Playoff played out. When we come back, he could land a spot in the second QMP -- that is if he wins the CY$90,000 Outlaw's Jackpot. We're back with more of Net Poker after this.
ADVANCE TO DEUCES WILD POKER
