Joker Poker

(smooth jazz theme plays)

Rich: The championship's on the line. Marc and Michael play Joker Poker where one of them could instantly win CY$10,000 and a trip to San Francisco. Back to Doug Morris and Net Poker.

(audience applause)

Doug: Thanks, Rich. By the way, there's an additional prize that goes with that San Francisco trip. We'll talk more about that later.

 

 

 

MARC
MICHAEL

Doug: Marc won the first round collecting the lowest payoff on the board. Michael won the second racking up the biggest value. Now, let's see how much our winner will win in...

 
 



GENERAL KNOWLEDGE
MULTIPLE CHOICE

Doug: ...Joker Poker. As always, the theme for this round is General Knowledge Multiple Choice. I'll give you a question and four possible answers -- the last two of which are always "all of the above" and "none of the above". Buzz in, choose the right answer and you earn 10 points and control of the cards.

Remember in this round, there are two Jokers in the deck. So if you end up with a Joker, you may use it for anything when your hand is complete. Also, keep in mind five of a kind is possible. Five of a kind or a natural royal flush wins CY$100,000 and the new car we showed you earlier.

Marc cut the cards for this round. D.J., who managed to punch out a Klingon who made a pass at her during the break, (light laughter from the crowd) will show us the first two cards for the round.

D.J.: I gotta keep this dress for next Halloween.

D.J.: Hey! (smattering of cheers and applause) Good cut, Marc. The Ace of Spades and a Joker.

Doug: OK, two good cards and a 10-point question...

"A Tale Of Two Cities" is a tale of the...
\ city of London, England
\ city of Paris, France
\ all of the above
\ none of the above

(Marc buzzes in)

Doug: Marc.

Marc: All of the above

Doug: That's right.

 

 

 

MARC
MICHAEL

(audience applause)

Doug: To those of you who've never read it, trust me. It's a Dickens of a book. (audience groans) Marc, would you like the Spade Ace or the Joker?

Marc: Give me the joker, please.

Doug: Wild card it is...

 


MARC


MICHAEL



Doug: ...Michael, you get an Ace out of that deal. Next two cards.

D.J.: The 10 of Hearts and the Jack of Hearts.

Doug: Let's test your TV trivia...

Julia Louis-Dreyfus was a cast member of...
\ "Seinfeld"
\ "Saturday Night Live"
\ all of the above
\ none of the above

(Marc buzzes in)

Doug: Marc.

Marc: All of the above

Doug: She was in the cast of both. That's it. (audience applause) Score's 20-0. Which card, Marc?

Marc: The Jack please.

Doug: Knave for you...

 


MARC


MICHAEL



Doug: ...a 10 for Michael. Two more cards.

D.J.: And they are the 10 of Clubs and the Jack of Spades.

Doug: I see Michael chomping at the bit to score on this question coming up. Here we go...

The city of Atlanta was where...
\ Justin Timberlake was born
\ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., died
\ all of the above
\ none of the above

(Marc buzzes in)

Doug: Marc.

Marc: None of the above

Doug: The birth and death happened in Memphis. You're right.

 

 

 

MARC
MICHAEL

(audience applause)

Doug: Michael, I see ya try to buzz in. He's just beating you to the punch. Which card, Marc?

Marc: Give me the jack.

 


MARC


MICHAEL



Doug: OK. Marc with at least three Jacks. Michael, just keep the faith. There's another Joker in the deck somewhere. Next two cards, please.

D.J.: Here it is! The other Joker and the Ace of Clubs.

Doug: Oh, boy. Michael, there's still hope. But you've got to score on this question.

In the video game Paperboy, the paperboy can deliver newspapers to...
\ Easy St. (Easy Street)
\ Tough Rd. (Tough Road)
\ all of the above
\ none of the above

(Marc buzzes in)

Doug: Marc again.

Marc: Easy Street.

Doug: Mercy, he's right. (audience applause) Other streets are Middle Road and Hard Way. Well, as if I didn't know -- which card?

Marc: Give me the joker.

Doug: And with that...

 


MARC


MICHAEL



Doug: ...the handwriting's on the wall. Marc's won with 40 points and at least four Jacks. Best Michael can do is a full boat. Let's go ahead and play this out.

Doug: And I tell ya what. Last season, in this situation, we'd play for just CY$250. All things considered -- let's attach a chance at CY$2500 with this next question.

Hamburger U is...
\ associated with McDonald's
\ based in Rosemont, Illinois
\ all of the above
\ none of the above

(Michael buzzes in)

Doug: Michael.

Michael: associated with McDonald's

Doug: He got one!

 

 

 

MARC
MICHAEL

(audience cheers)

Doug: I was beginning to think Marc pulled a dirty Jason Bateman trick and cut off the wires on your buzzer. (audience laughs) OK, we know which way the 25 points are going to go for high hand -- but as promised, a CY$2500 payoff is at stake. Michael, please go ahead and choose the left or the right card.

Michael: The left card is the right card & the right card is the wrong card. (audience laughs) I will go with the left card.

Doug: OK, D.J., go ahead and position the cards, please.

 


MARC


MICHAEL



Doug: Now, Michael, for CY$2500, predict the suit of your last card. Is it a Spade, Heart, Club or Diamond?

Michael: I will go with the Club, as in "I'm going to club Marc in the parking lot at the end of the show." (audience laughs and applause) I'm kidding! He's a great player & he deserves the win.

Doug: Well you're a great player and a great sport, Michael. OK, you say it's Club. D.J., please flip over Michael's last card.

 


MARC


MICHAEL



(lost of gasps from the crowd)

Doug: Woah boy! No Club. But collecting that Jack of Diamonds may have spoiled Marc's chance at CY$100,000 and a new car. As I alluded to earlier, five of a kind does beat a natural royal flush. So that's why we allow for five of a kind to be worth automatic entry into the Quarter Million Playoff.
