Doug: OK, gents, the risks get bigger the longer Five-Card Risk goes. If you all risk and the risks pay off, you'll each be in the five figures -- *and* you'll be at the midway point of blitzing the board and possibly going for a million later in Go For The Gold.

Before we turn over the third card -- decision time. Freeze or risk.
