And slrcatchphrase says it's lower.
ding!
The actual number of people who agreed with the prediction that the Warriors will win the championship with Kevin Durant is...
ding-ding-ding!
...74, so it's not lower, and mringgenberg will start from the 7 he froze at earlier. Do you want to change the 7, or play it now?

Yes, it is a 5, and you're two cards away from a win. Are you going to continue or freeze?

Higher than a 5?
(4 ♣)
buzz!
No, and you're denied once again. slrcatchphrase will take over with a new base card that he must play right away. What is it, Amber?
(7 ♠)
Oh, a 7. Is the next card higher or lower?

Here's hoping that it's lower than a 7. If not, we play a new question. Is it lower, Amber?
(9 ♣)
buzz!
Oh, wrong again! As our dealers reload the cards, we will go to the next question, and slrcatchphrase will answer this one. We asked 100 television fans:
"If you had a choice between Power and Empire, which one would you watch?"
How many of those people picked Empire?

The actual number of people who said that they'd watch Empire is...
ding-ding-ding!
...83, so it is lower, and mringgenberg gets a second crack at a comeback win. First off, what's the new base card, Tiffany?
(3 ♥)
A 3! Would you like to change it, or play it right now?

As long as it's not a 2 or another 3, you'll keep playing. Show us that next card, Tiffany!

Yes, it's a 7, and once again you're two cards away from a comeback win. Are you going to continue or freeze?

Good call this time. Now we move on to another question for the round, and mringgenberg will answer it. We asked 100 baseball fans:
"Is the current method of deciding home-field advantage for the World Series through the All-Star Game a good thing, or would you prefer that the team with the best overall record get it?"
How many of those people said they'd rather have the best team awarded home field advantage in the World Series?

ding-ding-ding!
...63, so it is higher, and slrcatchphrase gets another chance to win. You are two cards away from that, and you get another base card as well. What is it, Amber?
(K ♠)
A King! Now you can play it right now or change it. What's your decision?

As long as we don't see an Ace or another King, you win. How about it, Amber?
(5 ♣)
ding-ding-ding!
(1978 CS Theme)
As they say, the third time's a charm, and it certainly was for slrcatchphrase. After two failed attempts, slrcatchphrase takes the first round, and gets $1,000 for the win. (1978 CS Theme) But this is far from over, as mringgenberg will have a chance to catch up with a new round, which begins right after these messages.

Welcome back to Card Sharks, where we're about to begin a new round, and slrcatchphrase leads our defending champion 1-0. But mringgenberg will get a chance to tie this up in Round 2, as we have a new set of questions ready to go. The first question will go to you, slrcatchphrase. We asked 100 people:
"The upcoming Summer Olympic Games will be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Compared to other Games, do you think it will be successful or a failure?"
How many of those people said that the Games would be a failure?

I think only 55 people said Failure.

So it's 55 for slrcatchphrase...
ding!
...and lower for mringgenberg.
ding!
And the actual number of people who said that the Summer Olympics is going to be a failure is...
ding-ding-ding!
...41, so it is lower, and mringgenberg will play his cards first. What's the base card, Tiffany?
(2 ♣)
What do you know, it's a 2! Now would you like to play it right away, or change it?
