Doug: Deo, Melanie, in this Poker Run, you build on your current point totals. Each question is worth 15 points -- unless one of the next two cards from the top of the deck is a face card; then we play for 20 points a question. If both are royalty, 25 a question. Let's see our cards for the Poker Run, please.
D.J.: The Jack of Clubs and the Queen of Spades.
Doug: All right -- full points thanks to the luck of the draw. Deo, that means you only need two right answers. Melanie, you'll need four. I have a lot of questions as we start a new Poker Run -- NOW!
February 2nd is to Groundhog's Day as February 14th is to...
Doug: Deo.
Deo: Valentine's day.
Doug: Or for some of us, "singles awareness day". There, I said it! (a few laughs from the crowd) Deo, one away from the win. Melanie, you need four in a row.
On the original "Star Trek" TV series, William Shatner is to Captain Kirk as Leonard Nimoy is to...
Doug: Deo for the round.
Deo: Extreme wild guess. Spock?
Doug: Good guess. That's the round and that's the Poker Run.

Doug: "Spock" or "Mr. Spock", either one acceptable. Spock does have a first name -- but he has admitted Earthlings cannot pronounce it.
Deo, stand by for a chance to win CY$7500. Melanie, I think the risk you took was worth it. Unfortunately, the risk didn't pay off. I hope you had fun. We've got great parting gifts backstage plus CY$10 per point or CY$200. A nice hand for Melanie Ball.

Doug: Deo, you look eager to pick a letter. So, I'll just ask where's the 7500?
Deo: K.
Doug: Does K hide the 7500?

Doug: When we come back, Kevin rejoins us for our high stakes Joker Poker round. The championship's on the line and our new champ could win up to CY$35,000 before he even plays Deuces Wild for as much as CY$75,000.
