And the champ passes the 6 to Matt and his chance to win the Blackjack Bonus is out of play. Here comes the next question... Stark Raving Mad, Third Rock from the Sun, or The Pretender-- What NBC show features Dick Solomon who is actually the high commander of an alien expedition?

Third Rock is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING]Do you want to keep the card or pass it to Matt?

Let's hope that your card is either an Ace, 10, or face card, Michael. Jennifer... please reveal Michael's first card. Jennifer: Good news, Michael... your first card is an Ace! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]The champ now has a possible 11. If he gets the next question right and his next card is either a 10 or face card, he will win the match including the $15,000 Blackjack Bonus. Next question... Galmite, Pumice, or Slate-- Which is the only rock that floats in water?

This could be the moment of truth for our champion Michael Koontz. If his next card is either a 10 or face card, he'll win the $15,000 Blackjack Bonus and the match. Jennifer, please reveal Michael's next card. Jennifer: Good luck, Michael. Your next card is-- *reveals card* --a Jack! Tony: Blackjack! Michael is still our champion and have won $15,000! [BELL CLANGING, SIREN WAILS, 21 WIN CUE, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Congratulations on winning the Blackjack Bonus, Michael. How do you feel after getting the Blackjack Bonus win?

It's in the cards that really matter... and you'll be playing against Jennifer in Beat The Dealer in just a few minutes. Matt... you were a great player. Sorry that you've just ended up with 300. However, I have some good news to tell you. We'll just give you a house minimum of $1,000. What do you think... not bad eh?

Thank you for participating on our show with us and Happy Holidays to you. Give it up for Matt Ringgenberg, ladies and gents... [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Time for us to take a short break. Still to come, we'll invite a very special celebrity guest to play the Gambit Galaxy for their favorite charity. But coming up next, our champion Michael will try to add more to his winnings of $340,562 in cash and prizes as he'll play against J.Love for $1 million in Beat The Dealer. We'll return with more of Gambit right after a sponsorship and these words of wisdom. Stick around, folks...

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. I'm here with our defending champion Michael Koontz. After winning his third game, he has a total of almost $350,000 in cash and prizes. And in just a few minutes, he'll once again play against our card dealer Jennifer Love Hewitt in Beat The Dealer for $1 million. Are you ready to win it all, Mr. Koontz?

OK then... During the commercial break, the lab rats at Tandem Tech, a RANDOM.ORG company, have sent Jennifer a deck of 52 gigantic sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut, and sealed before the start of the show. Jennifer will now break the seal and reveal one card face up and the other face down. Jennifer's face up card is a 9. She'll reveal her face down card later on in this game. Right now, let's open up the Gambit Board.
Inside each of the 21 doors have cash, prizes, and surprises. Inside one of them is the instant win card... and other is that dreaded BUSTED space. And in addition to these spaces, we also have 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... a SWAP card, where you get the chance to swap a prize by selecting a different number (after winning the game)... and finally, we have the GAMBIT GALAXY where you roll the dice for your chance to win an additional $50,000. You may freeze at any time if you feel like you're getting closer of going over 21. Jennifer must hit on anything under 17 and stand on at least 17. Let's take a look at the big money board on my podium. [CASH REGISTER RINGS...]If you get a combination of at least three cards that add 21, you'll win the Any 21 Jackpot worth $25,000. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]If you get either an Ace and 10 or face card or an Ace, 10, or face card and the instant win dollar sign, you'll win the Blackjack Bonus worth $100,000. [MORE CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]But... if you select a door that has the hidden dollar sign on your very first selection, you will win $1 million! [LOUDER CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And for winning the match, we'll give you two Gambit Power Chips-- one for each round that you've won. But that's not all... Not only we'll give you an extra power chip for your reign as champion, but you've also won a bonus power chip for winning the Blackjack Bonus in round 2. A total of 4 Gambit Power Chips! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Use them wisely. Whenever you're ready, please select a number.

If there's a dollar sign inside number 17, you'll win $1 million! Let's see what is inside number 17... [DING, APPLAUSE]It's a motorcycle. Here's our announcer Jim Thronton to tell us more about this prize. James...? [PRIZE CUE]Jim Thornton: This fun-to-ride Honda motorcycle comes with a liquid-cooled 900 CC engine and smooth-shifting five-speed transmission, plus leather seating, chrome dual exhaust tips and rear storage area.[APPLAUSE]Tony: We'll add the $9,258 automobile onto the pot. Jennifer, please reveal Michael's first card. Jennifer: It's a King. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Do you want to keep the King or use your power chip, Michael?

If the dollar sign is behind number 5, you'll win the Blackjack Bonus of $100,000. Right now, let's see what is inside number 5... [DING][WILD CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]It's a brand new car! Here's Jim as he reveals the name of this automobile. [LAS VEGAS GAMBIT THEME PLAYS...]

You're now down to 3 power chips as the search for the Ace continues. Jennifer, please reveal the next card. *Jennifer reveals card* Jennifer: It's a Queen. [AUDIENCE REACTS]Tony: If you keep the Queen, you'll have a total of 20. But you still need an Ace for the $100,000 Blackjack Bonus win. Do you want to keep the Queen or use your power chip?

Bold decision by the champ as he's now down to two power chips. Still looking for that Ace for $100,000. Jennifer, please reveal Michael's next card. *Jennifer reveals card* Jennifer: It's a 9. Tony: Michael... do you want to keep the 9 or use your power chip?
