MIDNIGHT BLUE HARVEST ![]()
Doug: ...Blue. Midnight blue is a really dark shade of blue -- and "Blue Harvest" was a code name for "Star Wars'" Episode VI -- a.k.a. "Return of the Jedi" -- when it was in production. "Family Guy" fans also know "Blue Harvest" was the title of their "Star Wars" parody.

Doug: Matthias will get the left. Tell ya what, let's check Dean's card first. He has, at best, two Queens right now and is on a straight draw. Let's see his last card.

Doug: Ten of Spades. We'll make that Joker a 10 for trips. Now to Matthias. Only card that will work for you is a Queen or Joker to complete at least a straight. D.J., please turn that last card over for Matthias.

Doug: Our race to 100 points. Fifteen points a question unless one of the next two cards is a face card -- then we up the value to 20. We'll up the value to 25 if both are face cards. Jokers will count as face cards. Let's see our cards for the Poker Run, please.
D.J.: The Ace of Clubs and the other Joker.
Doug: Oh, if only it came up for Matthias in the blind card pair. OK, that Joker is treated like a face card. Questions will be worth 20 points each. Dean only needs two right answers to become our new champion. Matthias needs four.
It's not over until someone reaches that 100 mark. So let's find our champion and start the Poker Run -- NOW!

Matthias, sorry to see you go -- but we hope you had fun playing. We give you CY$10 for each point in this round -- that's another CY$400 for a grand total of CY$2400. A nice hand for Matthias Lamers. (audience cheers)
