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.

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.
![]()
Doug: Just need one more Ace, Deej.

(a few groans from the crowd)
Doug: Jack of Hearts. Great it's not a King.
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.
![]()
Doug: Ace of Diamonds or Queen of Diamonds wins CY$3000. Let's make this one a good one.
