[OPENING THEME, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Jim Thornton: Today on Gambit... find a dollar sign inside one of the 21 hidden doors and win...And now, from Television City in Hollywood, here is the host of Gambit... Tony Lane![CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Thank you, Jim Thornton. Good morning, folks... and welcome to our season premiere of Gambit. TV's game of skill, fate, and fortune. It's the game where a 21 or blackjack could lead to an assortment of fantastic prizes including the top cash prize-- $1 million. I would like to take an opportunity to say a very special thanks to Bill McDee for substituting me for our season finale. Now that we're in season 3, I'm sure you'll be spend each day with us as we see these two players compete for cash, prizes, and a chance to beat the dealer. Jennifer Love Hewitt is finishing her maternity leave so she'll return on tomorrow's broadcast. Right now, we have a very special guest card dealer. She was a contestant on the Australian version of "Big Brother" and was the guest co-host of the American version of "$ale of the Century" hosted by Greg Palmer. Right now, she's with us and will be revealing each card for today's players. Please give it up for STACEY WREN! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Stacey: G'day, America! It's a great privilege and honor for me as your guest card dealer. I'm a bit nervous, but will get the hang of it after the break. Right now, let's meet our two players. [CONTESTANTS' INTRO PLAYS...]Our challenger today is a supermarket clerk from Council Bluffs, Iowa... meet MATT RINGGENBERG. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And playing against Matt is our returning champion. In just one day, he has a total of $33,500 in cash and merchandise. He's an avid bowler and also does youth volunteer work. Please welcome him back to the show... RAYMOND WEAVER. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Thank you, Stacey. We'll see you after the break. Matt... welcome back to the show. Please tell everyone in TV land about yourself.

Mmm... yummy. Personally, I like the Boston Creme doughnut. Good luck to you, Raymond. Coming up after the break, we'll be playing the first round. We'll find out if either Raymond or Matt reach all the way to 21... or a blackjack. We'll begin round 1 when Gambit begins right after this commercial time out. Stick around, folks...

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. Now that Raymond & Matt are all set for a rematch, please allow me to explain the rules for those who are watching it for the first time ever. Object for our players is the first to reach 21, or get as close to 21 without going over in order to win the game. To earn cards, players will have to come up with correct answers to multiple choice questions. Each of them are worth $100. The winner of each game will receive $500. Now... let's reveal the payout board on my podium. [CLANG]The first person who has a combination of at least three cards that add up to 21 will be collecting the Any 21 Jackpot worth $4,000. [APPLAUSE]But whoever gets an Ace and either a 10 or face card will be collecting the Blackjack Bonus worth in cash $20,000. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And during the commercial break, the lab rats at Tandem Technologies, a RANDOM.ORG company, have delivered our guest dealer Stacey a set of 54 super sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut and sealed. Stacey will now break the seal. Whenever she's ready, here comes the first card to begin round 1. Stacey: Our first card in our first round is a 10. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Whoever answers this question not only gets 100 bucks... but also that 10. Good luck to both of you. Here comes the first question... CB4, Hollywood Shuffle, or I'm Gonna Git You Sucka-- What was the title of the 1988 Keenan Ivory Wayans parody of blaxsploitation films?*You have 24 hours to PM your buzzcode between 1 and 100.

"I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING]The hundred bucks are yours, Matt. Do you want to keep the 10 or pass it to Raymond?

If your next card is an Ace, you'll win the $20,000 Blackjack Bonus. Stacey won't be revealing the next card unless someone answers this next question. England, France, or Mexico-- Which country did tourists from the United States in 1999 visit the most?

Stacey... please reveal Raymond's first card. Stacey: It's a 5. Sorry, mate... [AUDIENCE GROANS...]Tony: Too bad, Raymond. At least, you still have a chance to go for the $4,000 21 Jackpot. Next question... Bobby Cox, Ted Turner, or George Steinbrenner-- Who owns the Atlanta Braves?
