Video Poker Kourtney: I am going to try number 1, 3, 19, 21 and 14.
Doug: And they're going to reveal what's behind those numbers -- whether they like it or not. :)

Doug: Just a pair of ladies for a nickel. You'll need a second turn.
Kourtney: Lets keep the ladies and exchange the rest for number 2, 12, 22.
Doug: OK. I might've gone for the straight. But if you make three of a kind, you'll still be in it mathematically. Let's see what's behind the numbers that are or end in 2.

Doug: Two pair does give you 10 more points -- but you'll finish out of the cyber-money. We know Kourtney and Jay go on to the next round and Andy will be waiting for one of them in Joker Poker. But, Andy...

Doug: ...we'll still let ya play Video Poker -- for a car and 100-grand. (audience cheers) If you can make a royal flush, you'll find yourself back at a familiar place -- The Prudential at the Half. Err... uh... (audience laughs) the Quarter Million Playoff. Anyway, go pick five.
Andy: 1, 5, 10, 16, 23
Doug: OK, let's see how close you've come.

Doug: Ouch! Well, it's a 20-point straight -- what Kourtney could've used earlier. But you also have the two lowest Spades on the board plus a face card of Hearts, Clubs and Diamonds. Make exchanges and hope for the best.
Andy: I'll keep the King and choose 7, 13, 21 and 24
Doug: OK, if 7, 13, 21 and 24 hide Hearts higher than a 9, he's back in the tournament. Let's see 'em.

Doug: Well, you went from a straight to two pair. But still you win the round.

Doug: CY$5000 hides behind one of the letters in "POKER". Which letter?
Andy: I guess I'll take a P.
Doug: Contestant coordinator will direct to the bathroom later. But before you go, enjoy...

But first, we're going to let three other players in on a special game. That's all ahead -- on Net Poker.
