Stacey... please reveal Matt's next card. Stacey: Matt, your next card is... *slowly reveals card* ...a 10. [AUDIENCE GROANS]Tony: The Blackjack Bonus is now out of play. However, that bonus will return in our next round. Matt... you now have a total of 20. Do you want to continue this round or freeze? |

Stacey will now place the FREEZE marker on Matt's 20. Raymond... there are no ties in Gambit. The only way for you to win the first game of the match is a 21. You must answer each and every question correctly in order to stay in the game. If your answer is incorrect, Matt wins the first round and an extra $500. Here comes your next question. Barbara Walters, Katie Couric, or Oprah Winfrey-- What talk show host was named the richest woman on television by TV Guide in 1989? |

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. At the end of the first round, our challenger Matt has won the round including the cash total of $700. Our champion Raymond, meanwhile, has only $100. There's still time for the champ to tie up the match as we go now to round 2. [CLANG]The Any 21 Jackpot is now at $4,500 while the Blackjack Bonus is now at $22,500. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Our guest dealer Stacey, filling in for J.Love will now reveal the first card in our second round. Stace...? Stacey: Our first card in round 1 is a King. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Another great card... and only one of them will get that possession. Hands on to your signal device. Here comes the first question. Art Linkletter, Rudyard Kipling, or James Thurber-- "How the Elephant Got Its Trunk" is one of what author's "Just So Stories?"*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. |

If your next card is an Ace you'll win the $22,500 Blackjack Bonus and become our new champion. Next question... Godzilla, Grape Ape, or Magilla Gorilla-- What was the name of the large gorilla often seen during the same half hour as cartoon characters Tom and Jerry? |

A quote from Matt on the vacation thread says:
I will be unavailable from mid Saturday to sometime on Sunday as I will be at the Coco Keys water resort in Omaha which I will be staying overnight.

Matt... if your next card is an Ace, not only you'll become our new champion, but also win the $22,500 Blackjack Bonus. Stacey... please reveal Matt's next card. Stacey: Good luck to you, mate. Your next card is-- *slowly reveals card* --an Ace! Tony: Blackjack! Matt is our new champion! [BELL CLANGING, SIREN WAILS, 21 WIN CUE, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Congratulations on winning the $22,500 Blackjack Bonus, Matt. How do you feel after becoming a new champion? |

That's great to hear. In just a few, you'll be playing against Stacey for the big dough.
Raymond... I hope you had a good time playing the game with us. Do you have any last words before revealing your final total?

Sorry to see you go, but you won't be leaving with just 100 bucks. Along with the previous winnings of $33,500... you'll be leaving us here with a grand total of-- $33,600 in cash and prizes. Give it up for Raymond Weaver, everyone... [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Time for us to take a break. Still to come, one lucky audience member will be playing the Gambit Galaxy for $25,000. But after the break, our new champ Matt will go one on one against our guest dealer Stacey for $1 million. We'll be right back with more of Gambit after we do a little business for America. Stick around... we'll see you in a moment. [CLOSING THEME][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Stacey: Closed Captioning sponsored by-- |

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. We're here with our new champion Matt Ringgenberg. So far, he has an all cash total of $23,400. And in a few minutes, he'll be playing against our guest card dealer Stacey Wren for $1 million. Are you ready to win it all, Matt? |

OK... let's get into business. During the commercial break, our lab guys at Tandem Tech, a RANDOM.ORG company, have sent Stacey a deck of 52 ultra sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut and sealed. Right now, Stacey is gonna break the seal as she deals one card face up and the other face down. She has a 5. We'll reveal the face down card later on. Right now, let's take a look at the Gambit Board. 21 hidden doors... over millions of dollars in cash and prizes. One of them has the Take 2 card where you select one prize and an extra selection for one deal of the card.... the Stop or Go where you either keep the cash or double the amount by matching two exact suits... and finally, we have two SWAP cards, where you get the chance to swap a prize by selecting a different number (after winning the game). And we've also added the Gambit Galaxy card. If you select that card, you'll be rolling the golden dice for an additional $50,000. You may freeze at any time if you feel like you're getting closer of going over 21. Stacey must hit on anything under 17 and stand on at least 17. [CLANG]If you get a combination of at least three cards that add up to 21 (or beat the dealer or bust her), you'll win $25,000. [APPLAUSE]But if you get either an Ace and a 10 or face card, or the Ace, 10, or face card and the instant win, you'll win the Blackjack Bonus... $150,000. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]But... if you select the instant win dollar sign on your very first selection, you will take home the top cash prize... $1 million! [LOUDER CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And for winning the match, we'll give you two Gambit Power Chips-- one for each match that you've won. But that's not all. Since you've gotten the Blackjack Bonus, we're giving you a bonus power chip! A total of 3 power chips. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Good luck to you, Matt. Whenever you're ready, please select a number. |

If there's a dollar sign inside 13, you'll win $1 million. Let's see what's inside door number 13. [DING, APPLAUSE]It's a $1,000 money card. That money may go into the prize bank... but there's an added twist. When Stacey reveals the first, and only, card and it matches the same suit... which is a spade... we'll multiply the thousand by 2. That means it could be $2,000 in cold hard cash. Ms. Wren... please reveal Matt's first card. Stacey: It's a 6 of hearts. Tony: So that means we'll just put $1,000 into your prize bank. Right now, you have a decision to make... Do you want to keep the 6 or use your power chip? |
