Doug: Welcome back to The Big Risk. Our players, especially Dean, could use some more cyber-money to play with. So, let's give each of them an additional CY$200.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$300	JOHN CY$600	JOSEPH CY$400

(ding)

Doug: That means John has CY$600, Joseph has CY$400 and Dean CY$300.

In this round, questions are now worth CY$200 each. Buzz in with a wrong answer and each of your opponents score 200. After the questions comes the Final Risk -- where we'll have to say goodbye to the low man on the totem pole.

All of the questions in this round are true/false statements. So good luck and here we go...

True or false: Oliver Stone directed "Goodfellas"

(Dean buzzes in)

Doug: Dean.

Dean: False.

Doug: It was directed by Martin Scorsese. You're right for 200.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$500	JOHN CY$600	JOSEPH CY$400

(audience applause)

Doug: You move into second place just like that. Next right answer will either give you the lead or a share thereof.

True or false: "Friendship circles" are a type of Girl Scout cookie.

(Joseph buzzes in)

Doug: Joseph

Joseph: False

Doug: At one point they were sold -- but our researchers note that cookie's been retired. So you're right.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$500	JOHN CY$600	JOSEPH CY$600

(audience applause)

Doug: OK, next right answer's worth the outright lead.

True or false: Muhammad Ali knocked out Sonny Liston to become boxing's heavyweight champion.

(John buzzes in)

Doug: John

John: True

Doug: That is true.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$500	JOHN CY$800	JOSEPH CY$600

(audience applause)

Doug: Next statement's about TV.

True or false: Pam Dawber was "Sam" on the short-lived sitcom "My Sister Sam".

(Dean buzzes in)

Doug: Dean

Dean: True.

Doug: That's right.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$700	JOHN CY$800	JOSEPH CY$600

(audience applause)

Doug: Next question on politics...

True or false: Arnold Schwarzennegger is a Democrat.

(John buzzes in)

Doug: John

John: False, he's a republican

Doug: Right on all counts.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$700	JOHN CY$1,000	JOSEPH CY$600

(audience applause) (bells ring)

Doug: And that sound starts the Final Risk. John leads with a grand, Dean with 700 and Joseph 600. D.J., looks like you'll roll the dice again.

 

D.J.: Yes, indeed. The Final Risk tonight is Over/Under. I'll roll two dice just one time. Before I roll, it's up to you to predict whether the roll will be valued over 7, under 7 or equal to 7.

If you pick Over and the roll is between 8 and 12 inclusive, the payoff is 1-to-1. If you choose Under and I roll any number between 2 and 6 inclusive, again, the payoff is 1-to-1. But you may bet on the number 7 itself -- and if I roll a 7, we'll pay you at 5-to-1 odds.

Doug: Now, not to imply the possibility of lightning striking twice in the same place. But Dice Risk started and finished with one roll of a 7.

With that said, the minimum bet in this round is CY$200. You may bet all in. Remember, you must bet in multiples of 50. The player with the lowest score will be eliminated. So good luck, decide carefully and place your bets.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$00	JOHN CY$800	JOSEPH CY$00
UNDER CY$700	OVER CY$200	OVER CY$600

Doug: And we're all set. John's betting minimum with 200. The others are going all in. Joseph betting 600 on Over and Dean 700 on Under.

Obviously, John's going to the playoff. All eyes are on the others. If the roll is Over 7, we'll look for a new champion. Under 7 -- and Dean defends his championship. If the roll is exactly 7, Dean and Joseph play a tie-breaker. D.J., do your stuff.

(D.J. rolls)

 

D.J.: Almost a 7. It's a 6.

Doug: So Dean and John go to the playoff.

 

 

 

DEAN CY$1,400	JOHN CY$800	JOSEPH CY$00

(winning bells; audience applause)

Doug: We'll get the cards ready for the Lucky 7 Playoff in a bit. Joesph, no one leaves The Big Risk empty-handed. Backstage, we have CY$250 and other consolation gifts waiting for you. Please take them with our great thanks for playing. Joseph Bohan, everyone.

(audience cheers) ("A Little Less Conversation" plays)

Doug: Dean versus John for the championship -- after this.

ADVANCE TO LUCKY 7 PLAYOFF
