Three out of ten have according to Matt...

Clement, how about you?

I think Matt is spot on. Since I cannot call this, I'll go with the odds: higher.

Post by koopakid17 on Aug 17, 2014 18:44:42 GMT -5
Higher because of the odds...
[3][__][HI]
And the actual number of accountants who have had to represent a client in tax court is...
[3][5][HI]
Five of them! Clement, your instinct to follow the odds worked. Now, one of you who answered yes to this question, what kind of case was this?
Accountant: It's quite a few, actually. We have a couple who are fighting back taxes.
Me: And it's an ongoing process?
Accountant: It sure is.
Me: Thank you. Everybody, give it up for our accountants!
*cheers and applause as the accountants return to their seats*

He needs three more cards to call for his fifth consecutive victory. Clement, this next question's for you. It's an Educated Guess question...
"How many gold medals did Jesse Owens win in the 1936 Summer Olympics?"
Clement, your guess, please.

Post by CCSCO on Aug 19, 2014 4:26:06 GMT -5
He was involved in athletics, that's a sport in which you can win several medals, but not as much as in swimming. I'm going with 4.

Going to say Jesse Owens won four medals...

And I say the total number of gold medals won by Jesse Owens in the 1936 Olympics is...
[HI][4][4]
*school bell*
Four! Hey, Clement! You were right on the money with that. And that kind if money is $1,000 in cash. You keep that no matter what happens. Owens won gold medals in 100-meter dash, the 200-meter dash, the 4 x 100-meter relay and the long jump.

And once again, a game will be decided by sudden death. Fourth and final question of this round goes to Matt. We surveyed 100 used car salespeople...
"Have you ever been told you have a good smile?"
How many used car salespeople said yes they have?

Clement do you think it's higher or lower than that?

I don't think that's what customers look for. However, we all know that it's important.
I'd say a little higher.

56 of them! Clement's higher but he does bring up a valid point. It takes more than polished brights to sell a car.

Clement, you and your opponent are each staring down at an eight. However, you have one less card to call to win the game. You can play your hand where you have the option to change your eight before calling two cards. You can also force Matt to call three cards with his eight and if he goofs, you win. What do you want to do?

This is for survival, and normally I'd have to deal with things by myself. However, seeing my luck with the cards, and the configuration of the board, it's safer to let him play.
Matt, take your chance.
