Joker Poker

Doug: There they are. Now let's play a 15-point blind card question. This question also has a chance at CY$2500. The query first....

Budweiser beer is...
\ often marketed as "the king of beers"
\ named after a town in Czechoslovakia
\ all of the above
\ none of the above

(Will buzzes in)

Doug: Will.

Will: E. Really crappy tasting.

(audience laughs and applause; a few "woos" from the crowd)

Doug: I'm sure the sales manager here at the station will be calling for a meeting when this is over. (more laughs) Ummm... should we call him wrong and go to Andy? OK, Andy, chance to steal -- as if it matters.

Andy: often marketed as "the king of beers"

Doug: Naw, I have it as all the above. But I tell ya what -- forget the question. Andy, we know you're gonna win. Give him 25 points for what's going to be the high hand.

 

 

 

ANDY
WILL

(winning bells; audience applause)

Doug: Now Will, for such a hilarious answer, I'm giving you first shot at CY$2500. First, pick the left or right card.

Will: I'll take the card on the left.

Doug: OK, for CY$2500, predict its suit. Is it a Spade, Heart, Club or Diamond?

Will: I'll go with a Heart.

Doug: A Heart. BTW, if this card's a Joker, we automatically give you the 2500. So, for CY$2500, let's see a Heart.

D.J.: Sorry, Ace of Spades.

Doug: And if we played this all the way out, you would've had just a pair of 9s. I tell ya what, while we're making executive decisions, let's give Will 15 points for that hilarious answer. That way,...

 

 

 

ANDY
WILL

Doug: ...we send him home with a total of CY$1250. Will Schmarder, everyone. (audience cheers) Stick around, Will. Let's see Andy in action -- because it's Andy versus the house for the rest of the show. Andy, you're left with the right card. What suit is it?

Andy: I'll say Hearts (maybe The Queen of Hearts).

Doug: Well, let's see if you're playing with the Queen of Hearts -- or any Heart for that matter.

D.J.: No, 9 of Clubs.

Doug: Well, you were destined for a straight; Will would've ended up with either trip 9s or a pair of 9s. OK, Andy, let's play for CY$10,000.

 


Doug: Pick two letters in "POKER". If the hidden amounts total CY$7000, I'll add CY$3000 more.

Andy: P and R

Doug: All right, let's see the P first.

 


(rimshot; ca-ching)

Doug: CY$750. And the R?

 


(rimshot; ca-ching)

Doug: CY$500 more for 1250. Now, let's try to double that 1250.

 

SELECT SAME SUIT


 

(FF reveal sfx)

Doug: Base card is the Jack of Diamonds. Your task: select same suit. There's at least one other Diamond card hidden behind one of the four numbers. Find a Diamond and you win CY$1250 more.

Andy: #2

Doug: Number 2 it is. Let's see another Diamond.

 

SELECT SAME SUIT


 

(winning bells; audience applause)

Doug: Ten of Diamonds is a winner.

 

 

 

ANDY
WILL

(smooth jazz theme plays)

Doug: That gives you -- oh how cruel? The good news is if you win four Deuces in the bonus round, you'll rack up CY$72,500. Bad news: you'll be *just* short of the Quarter Million Playoff. But let's see if he can be at that doorstep. Deuces Wild's next on Net Poker.

(audience applause)
