Jim: An ace or a deuce will make you shout! Those two cards will help you out on...  With your host, Kevin Kolsen! Hi and welcome once again to Card Sharks! This is the game where your fate is decided on the turn of a card. And indeed it has been fate that brought our returning champion back for a fourth day. We'll see if him or today's challenger will play the Money Cards today but first, let's meet our Card Sharks! *Matt and mjyr1 run to their podiums* Matt, you've already won three games and a grand total of $53,200. *cheers and applause* That was a tense game yesterday, describe how playing that tiebreaker felt. |

It brought you here today, that's what matters. Your opponent forced a tie but you pulled through. Now we're going to hear from mjyr1. Tell us about yourself, please.

Hey. My name is Matt also (Johnson is last name). I'm a student from New York who recently heard about the Net Game Central network. I enjoy bowling, video gaming, and, obviously, game shows.

Well, we hope you have fun, Matt. We're going to start by having the lovely Charlene and the lovely Jewel deal our lovely cards...
MATT R.
[CS][CS][CS][CS][CS]
MATT J.
[CS][CS][CS][CS][CS]
You're aiming to call our cards from one side of the board to the other. You gain control of said cards by answering high-low questions. Matt R., this first one's for you. We asked 100 people this question:
"Who was our third president?"
How many people correctly said it was Thomas Jefferson?

57 out of 100 knew Thomas Jefferson was our third president.
[57][__][__]
*ding*
Matt J., do you think the actual number of people who knew that is higher or lower than 57?

And we'll find out how many people know their history, the actual number who said Thomas Jefferson was our third president is...
[57][59][HI]
59! It was higher and barely!

You're going to lead Game 1, Matt J...

With an eight. You can play this card or change?

With that middle card looming, we're going to move the freeze bar over one spot...

You're three cards away from winning Game 1. Gentlemen, our next high-low question is going to involve ten members of our studio audience. Please come on up...
*cheers and applause as the audience members approach the stage*
Now, all ten of these audience members are lawyers. Before the show, we gave them a brief interview and posed this question:
"Did it take you more than once to pass your bar exam?"
Matt J., how many of these ten lawyers said yes it did?

Matt J. thinks it took three of our lawyers more than once to pass their bar exam.

Is that higher or lower, Matt R.?

[HI][__][3]

The actual number of lawyers who said it took them more than once to pass their bar exam is...
[HI][2][3]
Two of them! Not higher, it was just a little lower. Now, which two of you down there did not pass on the first try?
*two lawyers raise their hands*
How many times did it take you?
Lawyer #1: Two.
Lawyer #2: Four.
Me: Now, the one who said four, tell me, what's the most satisfying thing about passing?
Lawyer #2: It's finally over.
*laughter from audience*
Me: Well, I'm glad you got to experience that. Everyone give it up for our lawyers!
*cheers and applause as the lawyers return to their seats*
Matt J, you're back in control.
