Doug: BTW, we mentioned this to the player before we started this sneak preview. Player positioning was determined by adding the cyber-money won in the Mega Playoff with the tournament score that got the player in the tourney. That's why Josh is at the podium where the champ would normally be.
With that said, next question.
Super Bowl XXXII (32) was...
\ won by the Green Bay Packers
\ the most recent Super Bowl to be televised by NBC

Doug: Super Bowl XXXII was won by the Broncos 31-24 in 1998. NBC covered the 2009 Super Bowl -- the first since regaining NFL coverage rights. Josh, let's see if you can make this a three-way tie.
In Super Bowl XXIII (23), San Francisco wide receiver Jerry Rice...
\ gained 215 yards
\ recorded 11 catches
\ all of the above

Doug: I say "unfortunately" because that happened as the Niners beat my Bengals 20-to-16!!!
D.J.: Be glad the Bengals got that far. My Saints haven't been as fortunate.
Doug: In any event, next query.
The NFL's Buffalo Bills have...

Doug: All right, one more question in Super Bowl Trivia.
The NFL's Minnesota Vikings have...

Doug: Well, after this part of the game, Josh and Todd are our co-leaders. Andy's not far behind with 20 and now to the second part of the round. Deej, remind our big winners how this goes.
|
D.J.: All right, players. You'll each take up to two consecutive turns at the video screen. On the first turn, pick any five numbers you like -- and we'll reveal the cards behind the numbers. If you like that combination, take the points associated with the hand and pass control to another player. If you want that second turn, discard any or all cards you like and draw new ones.
|
D.J.: This table hasn't changed. Still need a pair of Queens or better to win any points at all.
Doug: Now there's a new and exciting change with the natural royal flush bonus. It has increased dramatically -- to CY$1,000,000.
Doug: That's right. One million cyber-bucks says you can't make a royal flush naturally in this or any other round of Net Poker. Josh, you're the low man on the totem pole. We'll start with you. Five numbers, please.
Josh: Ok, I'll take 7, 15, 18, 22, and 24
Doug: All right, let's have a look.
|
Doug: Two Kings and two Queens. Two pair equal 10 points to your score. Stop here and you'd be tied with Andy and Todd -- but of course they're waiting their turns. What do you do?
Josh: I'll toss 22, the Jack of Hearts, and take 3. C'mon full house!
Doug: Way to play it all right. Does 3 hide another King or Queen?
