Doug: Robert leads as... (bells ring) ...oh, we go on to the second half of the round and our first game of chance -- Dice Risk. D.J.'s over at The Big Risk board with the 411.
D.J.: Thanks, Doug. Behind the numbers 1 through 6, we have cards from a special deck -- worth between 4 and 10 but there are no duplicates and there's no 7. Gus, as the champion, you get to pick a number that determines our dealer's point. Pick a number between 1 and 6.
Gus: Pi. (audience laughs) Oh, you mean an integer? Okay. 3
D.J.: The New Big Risk -- easy as pi! (more laughs) Behind the integer closest to pi is...
D.J.: ...5. So, the dealer's point is 5. And now, ladies and gentlemen, he's rested, he's tanned and he's ready to get back to work. Fresh from his visit to Disneyland in California, here's Dirty Harry!
D.J.: While Doug and Cindy were having fun at Walt Disney *World*, we were in Disneyland. I bet you enjoyed it.
(DH takes off his ears hat ... and throws it at the cue card boy) (audience laughs)
D.J.: Then again, he's still got issues. Well, anyway, Dirty Harry will roll a pair of regulation dice cubes until he makes his point of 5, fails to make his point by rolling a 7 or after he's rolled seven times -- whichever comes first. Players, your job is to place a wager not exceeding your current score on either "PASS" or "DON'T PASS".
If you bet on "PASS", you're saying Harry will achieve his point of 5. If you bet on "DON'T PASS", you'll predict the dirty one will fail by rolling a 7.
Correct wagers pay off at 1-to-1 -- and all bets result in a push if he doesn't roll a 5 or 7 after seven rolls.
Doug: Word of advice to anyone -- don't sing "It's A Small World" around him. (audience laughs) Gentlemen, you must wager in increments of CY$50 -- and you have to bet at least CY$50. Good luck and place your bets.
