Doug: BAM! (light laughter from the crowd) We've given each of you CY$100 more. Questions in this round are now worth CY$100 each. Remember, if you buzz in and answer incorrectly, each of your opponents receive CY$100. And away we go...
Name the capital city of Kentucky.
Doug: Robert.
Robert: Frankfurt
Doug: That's the city.
GUS

CY$300ROBERT
CY$300
[NOTE FROM DOUG: It's actually "Frankfort" -- but unless the question asks for a correct spelling, misspellings are OK so long as they're "close enough".]
Doug: Great trick to try at your next party -- ask that same question, hold a glass of water over his head and then ask, "Is it Loo-EE-ville or Loo-IS-ville?" And if he doesn't say Frankfort, douse away! :) Anyhoo, the next question.

Doug: And we're midway through this round. Robert has CY$600, Andy with 400 and Gus, our champion, with 250. But those scores could *really* increase. D.J.'s about to tell us what's up with tonight's Five-Card Risk.
D.J.: Thanks, Doug. I'm over here with the anti-mouseketeer, Dirty Harry. (light laughter) And we're going to play the Five-Card Risk. During the break, he shuffled a deck of 54 cards -- two Jokers included -- and placed the first five cards behind the numbered spaces. He also randomly selected the theme for this half of the round. And it is...
D.J.: ...Any Face Loses. In a moment, you'll place a wager -- not to exceed your current score -- on the first card. If it's not a Jack, Queen or King, the payoff is 1-to-1.
If that first card's a winner, you may freeze and protect your net gains for this round -- or risk and try to double what you just doubled.
Should we turn over a Joker, it also represents a face card. Any face or Joker results in a loss of all of your net gains plus your original wager.
Doug: Thanks, Deej. Minimum bet is CY$100 and you still have to wager in CY$50 increments. Good luck and place your bets.
