Joker Poker




Doug: ...Keno. Now, we're bringing out a 16-card deck -- only Aces and face cards. In a moment, D.J.'s going to draw cards from the top of the deck one at a time. Each time she draws a card, we mark the corresponding space on the board.

We'll keep going until four spaces are marked straight across, up and down -- or diagonally. But before we draw cards, you have to wager on the result -- straight across, up and down or diagonally.

A correct prediction pays at even odds. But a correct diagonal prediction pays at three-to-win.

Now, because this is Grand Gamble, you have to wager at least CY$1000 of your winnings. The maximum bet is CY$6000 -- the amount you just won from the letters P and K.

How much will you gamble -- and what do you think will be the end result?

Matt: I'll go 3000 up and down.

Doug: Three grand vertically -- is locked in.

VERTICALLY

(ding)

Doug: D.J., let's see some cards, please.

Doug: Lady in black starts us off.

(ding)

Doug: And the next card.

Doug: Would've been better if it were the *Queen* of Spades. But we'll mark the Ace.




(ding)

Doug: On to the next one.

Doug: Cowboy in black.

(ding)

Doug: We'll, we've got one of the top three ranks. Next card.

(smattering of cheers)

Doug: There ya go, another Queen. Mark that.

(ding)

Doug: Two more Queens and you're CY$3000 richer. Next card.

(smattering of cheers)

Doug: King of Clubs now.

(ding)

Doug: Two more Kings and you're CY$3000 richer. The next card, please, Deej.

Doug: Now two Aces are marked.




(ding)

Doug: Pair of something higher than a Jack for the win. Next one, please, Deej.

Doug: Well, the first Jack of the game.




(ding)

Doug: Now, what we don't want ultra-soon is the King of Hearts -- because that would be a diagonal and you'd lose CY$3000. Next card, please.

(scattered cheers)

Doug: We're safe and it's the Ace of Clubs.




(ding)

Doug: Just need one more Ace, Deej.

(a few groans from the crowd)

Doug: Jack of Hearts. Great it's not a King.

(ding)

Doug: King of Hearts still brings bad news on this next draw. Let's hope it's the Ace of Diamonds.

(smattering of cheers)

Doug: Queens are now in the discussion.




(ding)

Doug: Ace of Diamonds or Queen of Diamonds wins CY$3000. Let's make this one a good one.

(strike buzzer; audience groans; BB87 loss cue)

Doug: We didn't want that one.




Doug: Game ends on four spaces straight across. Well, you lost CY$3000 -- but you're left with...

 

 

 

BRIAN
MATT

Doug: ...CY$5000. (smooth jazz theme plays) And when we come back, Matt goes for CY$80,000 in Deuces Wild Poker -- here on The New Net Poker.
