Doug: You're still in business with 30 points. Now before Josh had control, Andy and Todd were tied for the lead. Rules say the player to the left goes next. Andy, that's you -- after we shuffle.
|
Doug: All right, the shuffle stops -- and we await five numbers from you, Andy.
Andy: Lucky 7, unlucky 13, sweet 16, 18 -- life in Hebrew -- and 21 for blackjack.
Doug: Interesting assortment. Let's see what that gives us.
|
Doug: Well, the 7 and 16 are the best parts of the hand -- two Kings. Queen, 10 and 9 elsewhere. Five points if you stop here -- or you may exchanges.
Andy: Keep the Kings and I'll pick 1, 12 and 24.
Doug: OK, he's assured of gaining at least five points -- will he gain more with the help of 1, 12 and 24?
|
Doug: 'Fraid not.

Doug: You have the lead for now at 35, Andy -- and now it's time for Todd to take command. Let's shuffle first.
|
Doug: OK, Todd. You'll need a pair of Queens, Kings or Aces to share the lead -- anything better than a pair gives you the lead outright. Five numbers, please.
Todd: 2 11 17 19 20
Doug: OK, let's have a look.
|
Doug: Well, a pair of Jacks in the corner -- but that's the only good news. You'd go backwards by five if you stopped here. So, might as well go ahead and take that second turn.
Todd: Keep the jacks and take 8 9 10
Doug: Hanging on to the Jacks. If he finds a third Jack or finds another pair, he takes the lead. Show us 8, 9 and 10, please.

(FF reveal sfx) (audience cheers)
Doug: WOAH! Todd, you found a third Jack *and* another pair for a full boat. Give that man 40 points.
