All right, Matt. Get ready, now... --------------------------- Aces, deuces, you know you want 'em, but turn an eight and you've got a problem on...  And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen! Me: Hello, everyone! Thank you once again for tuning into Card Sharks! Now, I just want to say one quick thing before we get to our game. Jim, can you read that poem one more time? Jim: Why do you ask? Me: Well, I was waiting backstage and couldn't believe my ears when I heard it. Jim: Aces, deuces, you know you want 'em, but turn an eight and you've got a problem. *laughter* Me: Now, you may not know this but our daily poems are pulled from viewers who's seen our show. Where did this one come from? Jim: From Brooklyn, by a nine-year old girl by the name of Maddie. Me: It shows you how dedicated our fans are. Maddie from Brooklyn, we salute you. *applause* Let's not waste any more time. Why don't we bring in our Card Sharks? *Michael and Matt run to their podiums* Michael Koontz is our returning champion. He won a car yesterday so he's on our fourth show with $66,795 in winnings. *cheers and applause* Ready to do it yet again, Michael? |

That's the spirit. You're about to defend your title a third time. Let's say hi to Matt. What can you tell us about yourself?

And we want to welcome you to our show. Gentlemen, our models, Charlene and Jewel and loading up your boards right now...

To win rounds, you have to call cards from one side of the board to the other. To gain control of the cards, you must win these high-low questions that I have on my lectern in front of me. Michael, as returning champ, you have the right to answer this first high-low question. We surveyed 100 people:
"Do you know the Pledge of Allegiance?"
How many people said yes they do, Michael?

Post by larsonfan1 on Oct 22, 2014 10:21:22 GMT -5
I'll say thats a high number around 75.

75 out of 100 say they know the Pledge of Allegiance...

What about you, Matt? Higher or lower?

Post by mringgenberg on Oct 22, 2014 17:12:34 GMT -5
It's probably a little lower.

Going a little lower.
[75][__][LO]
*ding*
You know, there have been times where I've said either the one from KaBlam! or Histeria! by accident.
*laughter*
The actual number of people who know the Pledge of Allegiance is...
[75][71][LO]
*dingdingding*
71! Matt, you were right, it was just a bit lower. Still a good number, though.

Our challenger has the first show of the cards with...

A three!

[3♠️]|[9♦][CS][CS][CS]
You'll deal with that middle card later on. And now we'll deal with the ten of our audience members we approached before the show. Come on up, please...
*cheers and applause as the audience members approach the stage*
Thank you. Contestants, these ten audience members are sports bar owners. Before the show, we took them into the green room and we asked them this question:
"Have you refused to put on a game simply because whoever requested it was a rival's fan?"
Matt, how many sports bar owners said yes?

How about you, Michael?

Little higher...
[HI][__][2]
*ding*
The actual number of bar owners who refused to put on a sports game for a rival is...
[HI][5][2]
*dingdingding*
Five of them! You were right to go higher, Michael. Now, I'm curious, which of you five answered yes to this question?
*five bar owners raise their hands*
Now, you there in the front, tell me what happened.
Bar Owner: I own a bar on Long Island and a lot of us are Jets fans. Someone came in and said he wanted to watch the Patriots game.
*oohs from audience*
Me: So, what happened?
Owner: He was actually pretty understanding. He just went somewhere else.
*laughter*
Me: Thank you. Everyone, please give our bar owners a hand.
*cheers and applause as the bar owners return to their seats*
MICHAEL
[CS][CS][CS][CS][CS]
Our champ will make his calling debut with...

[9♦][CS][CS][CS][CS]
A nine. Play or change?

A Jack!

Lower than the Jack...
MICHAEL
[J♥][JK][CS][CS][CS]
Hey, look! It's a Joker! You've already won one car here, Michael, so this may help you win a second if you get to play the Money Cards. For now, though, we have to give you a brand new card.
MICHAEL
[J♥][CS][CS][CS][CS]
Same call on the Jack, Michael?

Post by larsonfan1 on Oct 27, 2014 14:14:01 GMT -5
Yes same call.

Post by koopakid17 on Oct 27, 2014 16:08:59 GMT -5
All right, then. Lower than the Jack?
MICHAEL
[J♥][A♣][CS][CS][CS]
Nope.
*buzzer*
You only lose one card for that. However, that also means Matt gets a free call on his nine.

Moving the freeze bar another card for our champ. You're two away from winning Game 1. Michael, this next high-low question is for you. We surveyed 100 married men:
"Did you meet your spouse online?"
How many married men said yes they did, Michael?

|

Post by larsonfan1 on Oct 29, 2014 14:01:20 GMT -5
I'll say thats going to be a low number, around 26.
