Scarlett: The winner of tonight's game plays for the Outlaw's Jackpot currently worth CY$50,000.

Scarlett: And now, Robert and Ed try to stay in the game in 5-Card Poker. Back to Doug Morris and Net Poker.
Doug: I thank you, Scarlett. Robert, Ed, we've reset the scores to zero. The first player to reach 100 points goes to the championship round of Joker Poker.
On our way to 100, we play some song titles from the Parenthetical Jukebox.

|
Doug: Song titles throughout the years have included at least one word surrounded by parentheses -- such as this song by Beyonce...
Beyonce
"Single Ladies (???)"
Doug: ...what you have to do is correctly identify the word or words in parentheses in the song title. In this case, the correct answer is "Put A Ring On It".
Each time you chime in with the correct words in the title, you earn 10 points and a choice of one of two cards for your hand. Remember, since we're dealing with portions of titles, the exact word or words must be given -- or else the 10 points and control of the cards go to your opponent.
After you each have four cards, we then play a 15-point blind card title. High hand wins 25 points.
Robert placed second in the last Poker Run and cut the deck for this round. Let's see the first two cards from the top of that deck.

(a few groans from the crowd)
D.J.: The 10 of Diamonds and the King of Diamonds.
Doug: And already, no royal flush is possible. Players, your first title comes from a song by Aerosmith's lead singer who's also a judge on "Idol".
Steven Tyler
"(???) Feels So Good"
Doug: Robert.
Robert: "It".
Doug: "It" is correct.
Doug: First points of the round go to you, Robert -- as well as the choice of card.
Robert: King.
Doug: The cowboy for Robert and...
|
 ROBERT    ED  |
|
Doug: ...Ed receives the 10 as a result. We get two more cards.
  |
D.J.: The Queen of Clubs and the King of Spades.
Doug: All right, two face cards up for grabs -- with this next song title.
Henry Lee Summer
"I Wish I Had A Girl (???)"
Doug: Ed.
Ed: Who loves me like crazy.
Doug: As a bachelor for the better part of five years, I wish I could award style points for that. But no, the actual parenthetical part of the title is "(Who Walked Like That)"
"I Wish I Had A Girl (Who Walked Like That)" is the correct full title.

|
Doug: Robert, that means you're awarded 10 points and the right to pick a card.
Robert: Another King, please.
Doug: Another cowboy for the champ.
|
|
ROBERT ED |
|
Doug: ...Ed receives the 10 as a result. We get two more cards.
  |
D.J: The Ace of Spades and the Jack of Spades.
Doug: Well, Ed will be on a straight draw either way. He could use a few points. Let's play this next title.
Michael Jackson
"P.Y.T. (???)"
Doug: Robert.
Robert: "Pretty Young Thing"
Doug: Right on.
Doug: Up to 30 points, Robert. Which card?
Robert: Give me the Ace.
Doug: Ace for the champ...
|
|
ROBERT ED |
|
Doug: ... Ed gets the Jack. Two more cards, please.
  |
D.J.: The Ace of Hearts and the Jack of Diamonds.
Doug: OK. Someone's going to have at least one pair going into the blind card song title. Here's the last 10-pointer of the round.
Aretha Franklin
"(???) A Natural Woman"
Doug: Robert.
Robert: "You Make Me Feel Like"
Doug: Exactly.
Doug: Ed, I keep seeing you try to chime in there. Robert's just beating you to the punch. Robert, which card?
Robert: Another Ace, please.
Doug: And with that...
|
|
ROBERT ED |
|
Doug: ...Robert has two Aces and two Kings. Ed with two Jacks. Now we come to the blind cards.
 |
Doug: Next cards from the top of the deck are face down. This next title is worth 15 points. High hand is worth 25. Ed, you could tie the score -- with the help of this.
Before I reveal the title, I should note there's more than one correct parenthetical part of this title. But all you have to do is chime in and give me one correct answer to score the points.
Here it comes.
Shakira
"Waka Waka (???)"
Doug: Ed.
Ed: This time for Africa.
Doug: That's it.
|
|
|
|
 
|
Doug: There was a Spanish version titled "Waka Waka (Esto es África)" -- so we'd have to take that as an answer as well. Ed, you need a Jack to have a chance to tie the score. Which card would you like?
Ed: Left.
Doug: Left card for Ed.
|
|
ROBERT ED |
|
Doug: Robert gets the right and we're about to find out who collects 25 points. First, to Ed's last card. It needs to be a Jack or else Robert has a big lead. Deej, please show us Ed's last card.
