Okay, all deadlines are 48 hours and away we go.
(cue intro)
Rich: And now, a game of high stakes! Where every decision is a gamble and every move could be your last. High Rollers! (1987 theme) And here's the man with all the action, Mark Liotta! (I enter the stage to a tremendous applause from the audience)
me: Thank you very much, Rich Fields! Welcome once again to High Rollers everyone. We've had a tough time giving away big numbers in the bonus game lately, but hopefully that will change today as we meet our two players.
Rich: Our returning champion is a supermarket clerk from Council Bluffs, Iowa. Please welcome back Matt Riggenberg. Matt's one day total is $12,000 and challenging him is John Bergman.
Me: It's a pleasure to have you with us, John. Please tell the home audience about yourself.

Thank you, Mark.....My name is John and I live in Madison, Indiana. I'm a retired cashier at a well-known department/grocery store. My hobbies are TV game shows, Bible reading, 60's and 70's rock music and swing music and dancing. I'm very happy to be here.

We're glad to have you with us, John. You guys know how we play the game, so we'll get right into our first round with the following prizes.
Rich: In column one, a Nintendo Switch. Nintendo's newest gaming console is a combination of both a home console and a handheld so you can take it with you on the go. Comes with two controllers as well as The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild, Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon 2. Retail value: $6,000. In column two, a trip to Japan. You and a guest will fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo, Japan for a seven night stay at the Millennium Mitsui Garden Hotel. You'll enjoy fine dining and you'll also learn about the exotic cultures and traditions Japan has to offer. Retail value: $13,570. And in column three, we've got $10,000 in cold hard cash!
Me: Total board value for the first round comes out to a total of $29,570 and here come the numbers.
