Before we get into the piece of the action, we'll have to pause for just two minutes. And after the break, we'll begin the first round of our 45th anniversary. We'll find out who will score first with a 21 or blackjack when Gambit begins right after this. Stick around, folks...

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. Now that Matt and Steven are ready, I'll explain the rules for a moment. The object of the game is to get closer to 21 than your opponent without going over. Each correct multiple choice question is $100 and a decision. Be careful... because you give me an incorrect response, you opponent scores 100 by default and a decision. Whoever comes closer to 21 while your opposing player get busted or a wrong answer on a freeze situation, earns an additional $500. Let's take a look at the big money board. [CASH REGISTER RINGS]The person who gets a combination of at least three cards will win the Any 21 Jackpot of $4,500. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Whoever gets an Ace and either a 10 or face card, will win the Blackjack Bonus of $25,000! [LOUDER CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Before the start of the show, our lab rats at RANDOM.ORG have sent our card dealer Jennifer a deck of 54 giant sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut, and sealed. Jennifer will now break the seal as we're all ready and set for round 1. Jennifer...? Jennifer: Our first card in round 1 is a 7. Tony: Good luck to both of you... here's the first question. Joan Jett, Stevie Nicks, or Tracy Chapman-- What rock ‘n roll star was smokin’ with her 1989 hit, “Rooms on Fire?”*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100.

Fleetwood Mac alumni Stevie Nicks is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING]You have scored your first 100 bucks. Do you want to keep the 7 or pass it to Matt?

Post by st1200 on Sept 26, 2017 11:46:33 GMT -5
i'm going to pass it to Matt and hope i can get a better card than 7

Post by tmann3x on Sept 26, 2017 12:11:03 GMT -5
The challenger is passing the 7 to the champ. Jennifer won't be revealing the next card unless someone answers the next question and here comes the next one. Charles II, Charles V, or Charles III-- Who will the Prince of Wales be called when crowned King of England?

It was Charles III. Just missed it by one. 100 bucks goes to the challenger. [DING]Steven... since you've won the $100 question by default, do you want to keep the card or pass it to Matt?

Let's hope that you get either a 10, face card, or an Ace. Jennifer, please reveal Steven's first card. Jennifer: Good news, Steven... your first card is a Jack! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Steven... if you get this next question right and your next card is an Ace, you'll win the $25,000 Blackjack Bonus. Next question... Calgary, Lake Placid, or Nagano-- What city hosted the 1980 Winter Olympics?
