The 60-minute Press Your Luck - Pilot #1

[Deleted]

I'll take the $7,000.

[CCSCO]

(mixed reactions)



We don't know if that motorcycle is more or less than $7,000. Two spins to go, last place still, I'm sure you want to press, but you have to make it official.

[Deleted]

You ain't playing this game, audience!  Shaddup!!!

(audience laughter)

Anyway, I'll press on.  I need to get $5,000 or more so I can be in 2nd place!  STOP!!!  (8)

You asked for 5 grand, here they are, accompanied with another spin. Second place, you trail Matt by $11,507, and still two spins left. Press or pass?

[Deleted]

Clement, I said before that I am a big fan of revenge, so I would like to pass those 2 spins to my good buddy Matt "Don't call me Riggenberg" Ringgenberg. 

[CCSCO]

(laughter, applause)



Matt, you know the drill. Two mandatory spins to take, protect your winnings. Good luck. (board starts spinning)

[mringgenberg]

Here we go! More cash or a trip would be nice and STOP! (9)

Now that's the end of your mandatory spins. You've earned one spin in the process. You're in first place, you lead Michael by over $32,000. What do you want to do?

[mringgenberg]

Pass It.

[CCSCO]

(applause) I'd have done the same.



Michael, it seems that you need something with another spin if you want first place. Good luck. (board starts spinning)

[Deleted]

I need something with a spin just to stay alive in this game!  STOP!!!  (13)

I'm sorry, Michael. Seems it just wasn't your day.

Kevin, you're last to play in this final round. You're in second place and you have 8 mandatory spins given by Michael C. Here's the first one. (board starts spinning)

[koopakid17]

If I survive, drinks on the house for everyone in the studio.

Let's do this now, STOP! (2)

Whammy: Ladies and Gentlemen, Tammy Whammette!!



There's a good point about this, because you don't have to pay a drink to our studio audience. (laughter, groans) Second good point, and that's more interesting, your six passed spins go to the earned column, so you have now 10 spins at your full disposal. What next?

[koopakid17]

Had to happen sometime.

I'll start by getting some of it back and STOP! (1)

[CCSCO]

(gasps)



Here you go, Matt. Nine mandatory spins to retain your lead and, why not, hit twice the third-million square. Good luck. (board starts spinning)

(a whammy appears in a business card with the word "WHAMMY" written on it) Hey! Do you know me?



Everyone got whammied today. Your six passed spins left all move to the earned column, so you have 7 spins you can use as you wish. No dollars, I assume you're going to press your luck, but I'm required to ask. Press or pass?
