*back to stage* [MAIN THEME PROLOGUE, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Celebrity Gambit live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. We are now less than 5 minutes from closing the calls and text messages. If you want to participate and play for $1 million, this is your last chance to make it happen. Go to CBS.com/gambit or on the CBS App immediately. At the end of round 2, we have a tie game. Doug Morris, from "On A Roll" here on CBS, has won the Blackjack Bonus before the break. He has $30,600 for The Children's Miracle Network. And Greg Palmer, from "$ale of the Century", has only $900 for The Boy Scouts of America. We'll begin our third round shortly... but first, let's take a look at the big payout board on my podium. [DING]The Blackjack Bonus is now back to its regular place at $25,000. However, the Any 21 Jackpot is now up to $7,000. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Jennifer will now reveal the first card up for grabs in round 3. Jenny...? Jennifer: Our first card in round 3 is a Queen. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And we have another excellent start of the round. This time, the dollar amounts have been multiplied by two... meaning each correct answer is $200 and whoever comes closer to 21 (or have your opponent get a bust) will earn an additional $1,000. Here comes the first question.
Gerald Ford, John F. Kennedy, or Lyndon Johnson-- Which U.S. president lettered in college football and played on undefeated teams in 1932 and 1933?*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100 and your answer. |

And Doug decides to freeze on his 20. Greg... you know they're no ties in Gambit. The only way to beat Doug's 20 is a 21. A blackjack will give The Boy Scouts of America $25,000. You must answer each and every question right in order to stay in the game. If at any time that your answer is incorrect Doug will have the 2-1 advantage. Your next question... Gaby Hoffman, Kirsten Dunst, or Thora Birch-- Who was the prodigious child star in "Interview with A Vampire"? |
