In our last episode, James Greek is our defending champion. And after winning two games, he has a grand total of $263,274 in cash and prizes. Right now, I'm looking for an opponent to play against Greek. If you want to participate, please let us know and be on standby.

First, you spelt my last name wrong is Sartori. Common mistake. Anyway, I am 23 years old from Holbrook Massachusetts. I am a full-time college student studying early childhood education. In my spare time, I enjoy shopping for retro video games and I am a big fan of Monopoly.

Sorry about that Frank. The nameplate is now fixed. Good luck to you, Mr. Sartori.
And James, please tell us to the world about you for a short while.

Good luck to you, James. Before we begin the game, we'll pause for a short break. When we resume, we'll begin round 1 and see if one of them will take home the big bucks by reaching 21 or blackjack. We'll have the answer in round 1 when Gambit begins in just a moment. Stick around, folks... [CLOSING THEME][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]*fade to commercial* ================================================================================== |

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Gambit. During the commercial break, I had given the instructions to both players. Now that our two duelin' dudes are ready, let's take a look at the payouts board on my podium. [CASH REGISTER BELL RINGS]The contestant with a combination of at least three cards that add a total of 21 will win the Any 21 jackpot of $4,000. But if you get an Ace and either a 10 or face card, you'll win the Blackjack Bonus worth $12,500. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Before the start of the show, our guys at RANDOM.ORG have given our card dealer Jennifer a deck of 54 super sized playing cards that were shuffled, cut, and sealed for her. Jenn will now break the seal as she reveals the first card up for grabs. Ms. Hewitt...? Jennifer: Our first card in round 1 is a 9. Tony: Each correct answer is $100... and whoever comes closer to 21 (without going over) while have your opponent bust or misses the Sudden Death question is worth $500. Good luck to both of you. Here comes the first question. Mallory, Tina, or Carol-- On the television show FAMILY TIES, what was Alex Keaton's older of his two sister's name?*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. |

Played by Justine Bateman... Mallory is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING]$100 for you and a decision to make, James. Do you want to keep the 9 or pass it to Frank? |

[AUDIENCE GROANS]The audience doesn't like your call, James. You have a 9 and your chance at the Blackjack Bonus is out of play. Jennifer won't reveal her next card unless someone answers this next question. Jeudi, Samedi, or Vendredi-- What is the French word for Thursday?

[AUDIENCE GROANING CONTINUES]Again, the audience doesn't like your call, James. The champ passing the card to the challenger. Jennifer, please reveal Frank's first card. Jennifer: Big mistake, James. Frank's first card is a Queen. Tony: If Frank's next card is an Ace, he'll win the $12,500 Blackjack Bonus. Next question... True or false-- If you cry in space the tears just stick to your face.

Guess what, James...? You're right! [APPLAUSE, DING]James... you have a 9 while Frank has a Queen. If you pass it to Frank and his next card is an Ace, he'll win the first game of the match and the $12,500 Blackjack Bonus. Think carefully... do you want to keep the card or pass it to Frank? |

This time, James is keeping the card. Jennifer, please reveal James's next card. Jennifer: James, your next card is a King. [APPLAUSE]Tony: James, you now have a total of 19. Before I read the next question, you have a decision to make. Do you want to continue this round or freeze? |

And Jennifer will now place the freeze marker on James's 19. Frank... there are two ways you can beat James's 19... either a 20 or 21. And if you get the answer right and your next card is an Ace, you'll win the $12,500 Blackjack Bonus. You must answer each and every question correctly in order to stay in the game. If at any time that your answer is incorrect, James will win the first game of the match and $500. Here is your question... Vin Diesel, Ralph Fiennes, or Giovanni Ribisi-- Which actor does not appear in the film "Saving Private Ryan"? |
