Number one...  Another $250 for you, Jon, as you cross the $4,000-mark.  Back to you, Clement. |

Nine gets you...  Double your win value if you win the round.  Jon, have at it. |

Behind number four is...  *awws from audience* Sorry, Jon, but your race ends here for now. Clement, you have won Round 14! *applause* Jon, after we take $50 from your score, you leave us with $4,175. Better luck next time.  Clement, on the other hand, you get $200 for winning the round thanks to finding the 2X Win Value square. Add that to the $150 for the six squares left in play and you're closing in on second place with $11,775.  Why don't we see where everything was on the board?  Just a few more dollar amounts other than Jon's Bomb. Clement, in just a moment, you're going to play the Red and Black mini-game. I'll explain how it works...  Behind the twelve numbers on the board are six black amounts and six red amounts. You must find the black amounts that add to your score but picking the red amounts deduct from your score. You keep picking until you have found all six of the black amounts or all six of the red amounts. At any time, though, you can stop and take whatever gain or loss you have. You win a $1,000-bonus if you can find all of the black amounts. If you do so without picking any red amounts, then you win an extra $10,000. Without further ado, pick a number, Clement. |

#12 first...  *oohs from audience* Oh boy, you're going to start this game in the red with -$75. What will you do now? |

Great! 11 next.

Post by koopakid17 on Dec 21, 2014 18:50:59 GMT -5
Going right next door. #11 hides...  *applause* A black $100! That will take you into the black by $25. If you want, you can quit with the gain or you can keep going. |

Not going to stop with a lousy $25. 6 then.

You got it. Behind #6 is...  *audience groans* An off-setting red $100. You're back down to -$75. |

Meh. 5 next.

Number five...  *groaning continues* You lose another $50 for that. Gotta be careful now. You don't want to pick the last three red amounts or it's game over. |

*applause*  A much better pick, Clement. Though you are still down $75. |

I asked for 8 and you revealed #9.
Anyhow, 3 is next.

I asked for 8 and you revealed #9. Anyhow, 3 is next. Oops, fixed. #3...  *cheers and applause* There you go! You've found three of the black amounts and you're now up $75. What do you want to do? |

Going on. 10.

Ten next...  *oohs from audience* Well, it's another red amount but you're still in the black by $50. The thing is, the last two red amounts are the largest. You can keep going in search of the other three black amounts and that $1,000-bonus or take the $50 and quit. |

Okay, then. Here's what's behind number nine...  *cheers and applause* Well done! Another $200 for you. Two blacks amounts left on the board and two reds. You are in the black by $250. What do you want to do? |

Let's try to go all the way. 4.

Let's hope we can do that. #4 now...  *applause* Another $25 for you and you've got $275 in your bank. Find the last amount and you leave this mini-game $1,350 richer. You're also guaranteed no worse than a $75-deficit by picking the last two red amounts. What will it be? |

Okay, if the black $75 is behind #7, you earn that $1,000-bonus. Show us...  *oohs from audience* Won't do it with that pick. You're down to $125 and you're down to one red and one black left on the board. Your last choice will determine whether you take an additional $1,200 or we take back $75. If you're feeling unsure, you can quit with $125. How about it? |

Let's pick #2.

Here we go, we hope that last black amount is behind number two...is it?  *awws from audience* I'm sorry, Clement, it came down to one or the other and it didn't work out for you. We take the $75 away from your score but you're still in third place with $11,700. *applause* And for proof of that last black amount being behind number one, here it is...  Round 15 coming up after this! |

Our board is locked and reloaded so let's continue our Race to a Million!  This is Round 15 and we have a match between our top two players...   Michael, you're coming off an exceptional round with that multiplier of yours. Everything you pick will be multiplied by twelve before it's added to your score. Matt, you're aiming to stop him in his tracks and perhaps try to get a little closer if need be. Let's have the two of you lock in your Bombs on our board right now if you please... *think music* Okay, we're ready to go. Matt, you trail by more than $10,000 so you get to pick first. |
