Bart is one of my favorite characters in the series. Anyways, good luck to you. Before we get to the game, we'll pause for a commercial. And after the break, we'll begin the first round and see if either Matt or Kevin win it with either a 21 or blackjack. We'll have that answer for you and the rest of the country when Gambit begins after this pause. Stick around, folks... [CLOSING THEME][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]*fade to commercial* ================================================================================== |

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. Now that both players are set, we're just about ready for round 1. Remember... the object is get closer to 21 than your opponent without going over. And whoever wins 2 out of 3 rounds wins the match and the right to play against Jennifer in Beat The Dealer for $1 million. Let's take a look about the big bucks board on my podium... [CASH REGISTER RINGS]The contestant who has a combination of at least three cards that add up to 21 wins the Any 21 Jackpot of $3,500. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And whoever gets an Ace and either a 10 or a face card wins the Blackjack Bonus of $20,000. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]During the commercial break, the lab rats at RANDOM.ORG (wholly owned as of today) had delivered to Jennifer a deck of 54 super sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut, and sealed. Jennifer will now break the seal and show our players the first card up for grabs. Jennifer...? Jennifer: First card in round 1 is a Jack. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: A great way to begin round 1. Each correct answer is $100. And whoever is in the lead... closer to 21 or have your opponent busted or miss the question... will earn an additional $500. Here comes the first question. Coltrane, Daisy, or Duke-- What was the name of Dagwood and Blondie's dog?*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. |

Daisy is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING]Your first hundred bucks in the first round... and a decision. Do you want to keep your Jack or pass it to Kevin? |

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]If Matt's next card is an Ace, he'll win the $20,000 Blackjack Bonus. Jennifer won't reveal the next card unless someone answers this next question correctly. Here it comes... This Old House, Home Improvement, or Screws & Nails-- What show features Tim Allen and explores the relationship between men and the power tools that they love?

If your next card is an Ace, you will win the $20,000 Blackjack Bonus. Jennifer, please reveal Matt's next card. *Jennifer reveals card* Jennifer: It's a King. Sorry, Matt... [AUDIENCE GROANS, APPLAUSE]Tony: You now have a total of 20. You still have a chance at winning the Any 21 Jackpot of $3,500. Before I read the next question, you have a decision. Do you want to continue the round or freeze? |
