Correct. [APPLAUSE, DING] You now have $1,300 and an Ace. If you get either a 10 or face card, you'll become our new champion and win the Blackjack Bonus of $37,500. Do you want to keep the card or pass it to Matt? |

OK, then. During the commercial break, the lab rats at Tandem Technologies, a RANDOM.ORG company, had delivered Jennifer a deck of 52 super-sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut, and sealed. Right now, she's gonna break the seal and show one card face up and the other face down.  Uh-oh... Jennifer has a 10. We'll show the face down card later on. But first, take a closer look at the prize board. Inside each of the 21 boxes are prizes, cash and new surprises. One of them has the Take 2 card where you select one prize and an extra selection for one deal of the card.... the Stop or Go where you either keep the cash or double the amount by matching two exact suits... and finally, we have two SWAP cards, where you get the chance to swap a prize by selecting a different number (after winning the game). You may freeze at any time if you feel like you're getting closer of going over 21. Jenn must hit on anything under 17 and stand on at least 17.  [CLANG]If you get a combination of at least three cards that add up to 21, you'll win $25,000. If you get a blackjack... either an Ace and a 10 or face card or an Ace, 10, or face card and an instant win, you'll win the Blackjack Bonus now worth $200,000! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]But if you get the instant win dollar sign on your very first selection, we'll give you the top cash prize--  --one million dollars! [MORE CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And for winning the game, we're gonna give you two Gambit Power Chips... and a bonus chip for getting a blackjack. A total of 3 chips. Use them wisely...  Whenever you're ready, please select a number. |

Dead center at #11. If there's a dollar sign, you win the million. Let's see what's inside number 11...  [DING, APPLAUSE]It's a watch. For more details on that watch, please listen to Jim. [CONTESTANTS' INTRO] Jim Thornton: From Rolex, this stainless steel and gold watch has a yellow gold fluted bezel and a blue stick dial, along with a jubilee style band.
     [APPLAUSE]Tony: No chance at a million, but you still have a chance to win $200,000. BTW, that prize goes into the prize bank. If you win this game, you'll be taking that watch including the cash. Jennifer, please reveal Kevin's first card.  Jennifer: It's a 2. Tony: Not a very good card. Do you want to keep the 2 or use your power chip? |

 Down to 2 power chips and that deuce is gone. Still looking for an Ace, 10, or face card. Jennifer... please reveal Kevin's other first card.  Jennifer: It's a 4. [AUDIENCE GROANS]Tony: Same case scenario, Kevin. Keep the 4 or use your power chip? |

I'm sure that Jennifer would love a rematch against you hopefully tomorrow. Let's see her face down card.  It was a 3... giving her a total of 13. On tomorrow's episode, the Blackjack Bonus goes back down to $100,000. Let's take a look at the big board and reveal several of the surprises...  The Busted! space was in number 5, the Car was in number 4, Take 2 was in 1, Green SWAP at number 6 and the Red SWAP at 9, and Stop or Go was at 13. The $1,000 money cards were in numbers 3, 7, 17, and 21. So... $200,000 for winning the Blackjack Bonus, a watch worth almost 3 grand, and a cash total of $38,600. In just one day, Kevin... you have a grand total of--  $241,595 in cash and prizes! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Be sure to join us tomorrow when Kevin plays against a new challenger and see if he'll go all the way and win the million.
