OK then! During the commercial break, our lab rats from Tandem Technologies, a RANDOM.ORG company, have delivered to our card dealer Jennifer Love Hewitt a deck of 52 king sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut, and sealed. Jennifer will now break the seal and show one card face up and the other face down. Her face up card is a 6. We'll reveal the face down card later on. Right now, let's take a look at 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... and the SWAP card, where you get the chance to swap a prize by selecting a different number (after winning the game). 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 bucks board on my podium. [CASH REGISTER RINGS]If you get a 21 by using a combination of at least three cards (or have Jennifer get busted), you'll win the Any 21 Jackpot worth $25,000. [APPLAUSE]If you get either an Ace and a 10 or face card, or an Ace, 10, or face card and an instant win dollar sign, you'll win the Blackjack Bonus of $100,000! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]But if you select a dollar sign on your very first selection, we'll give you $1 million! [LOUD CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]For winning the match, we'll give you two Gambit Power Chips (one for each round that you've won) and an additional power chip for winning the Any 21 Jackpot... that's a total of 3 power chips. Use them wisely, Matt. Good luck to you, Matt. Whenever you're ready, please select a number. |

If there's a dollar sign inside 1, you'll win $100,000. Let's see what's inside box number 1... [DING, APPLAUSE]It's a Jukebox. James...? [CONTESTANTS' INTRO]Jim: It's a classic jukebox that commemorates the 60th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s first #1 hit, made by the company that gave Rock and Roll music its moniker. Updated for modern use, it has a 100-CD changer and a built-in 2,000-watt amplifier that delivers rich sound from the system’s five speakers. From Rock-Ola.[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Over $11,000 in the prize pot. All you need is an Ace to win the $100,000 Blackjack Bonus. Jennifer... please reveal Matt's next card. *Jennifer slowly reveals card* Jennifer: It's a King. [AUDIENCE GROANS]Tony: Do you want to keep the King or use your power chip? |

Matt is freezing on his 20. The only thing that Jenny could beat the champ is a 21. Let's see her face down card. It's a Jack... for a total of 16. Here comes the most critical part-- If Jennifer's next card is between an Ace and a 4 or at least a 6, Matt wins $25,000 including the two prizes. If Jennifer's next card is a 5, Matt loses and the game will be over. Jennifer, let's see your next card. *Jennifer reveals her next card* It's a 5 and you lose, Matt. [SYNTH HORNS, AUDIENCE GROANS]I'm afraid to tell you more bad news-- Since you had chosen 8 as your first selection... [MORE GROANING FROM AUDIENCE, BOOS]The instant win was inside number 7. You could have won a million dollars. I'm sorry, Matt... but look on the bright side. You still got some cash along the way. Since you haven't used the three power chips, we'll give you 200 bucks apiece-- a total of $600. Let's take a look at the rest of the board. The car was in number 4, the BUSTED! space was in number 20, Take 2 inside 6, Stop or Go inside 14, and the SWAP card was in number 11. And the money cards were in 2, 3, 10, and 17. With only $7,500 and 600 in consolation cash, Matt Ringgenberg will be back on Monday with an all cash total of-- [APPLAUSE]I'm sure that you'll win even more on Monday... right, Matt? |
