At long last, it's time to begin the premiere of Solitaire: The Game Show. If you have not checked out how this game works, please refer to this thread.
I will need three players. Justin Rhea has been guaranteed a spot, so I'll need him to check in and I'll need two other players. Who'd like to play?

I understand, what you say, Frank. However, I can't play your game because I find Solitaire as a difficult game for me. My apologies.

Yes Caesar's Palace is fantastic. Maybe you'll get to attend a taping of Caesar's Challenge, which airs on NBC DayTime, but I digress. Best of luck to you. Finally, let's hear more about Justin Rhea. What should the folks in TV Land know about you?

Well I can imagine how good it feels. Best of luck to you Justin and good luck to all players. Here's how we play our game. This works just like the classic card game. Your goal is to place all of your cards on the ace foundation in sequence. If you can move all of your cards to the ace foundation, you'll win the round and a bonus $1,000. However, if no more moves can be made from either the card piles or your remaining deck, you are eliminated from the round. A player can also win a round by being the last one standing. You get to place your cards if you answer a question correct. Every correct answer pays out $500. Whoever has the most money at the end of three rounds goes to our bonus round which I will explain in a while. First, let's get to the cards. Our good friends at Random.org have randomized and shuffled three standard 52-card decks. Here are the starting cards for Bryan.
Now let's see Matt's cards.
And finally, Justin's starting cards.
Alright players. You have your starting cards and you each have 24 cards remaining in the draw pile. When it's your turn and you can't make any moves with the cards you have in front of you, just ask for a card from your deck and we'll see if it can be played. With all of that out of the way, it's time for the first question.
What type of pastry is French for “crescent” and is known for their buttery flavor and light texture?
(Players, you have 24 hours to PM me your buzzcode from 1-100 and an answer.)

Results:
Justin: 47 Bryan: 55 Matt: 66
Actual: 84
(Matt buzzes in)
Matt?
Matt: Crossiant
Me: That's it!
Alright Matt. That's an easy $500 for you. Now take a look at your cards and decide what card you would like to move, if any. Or you can take from the remaining 24 cards you have in your deck.

The Jack of Clubs to the Queen of Hearts

Post by grapebuy789 on Aug 17, 2018 9:56:47 GMT -5
Let's move that jack to the queen.
The next card in that pile is a 10 of clubs. Before I read the next question, here's a tip for the players. When placing your cards onto another one, make sure it is a different color and one number lower than the card you are placing it on. A little food for thought. Here's the next question:
What country singer sang a duet with his son in 1988 via electronic trickery with the song “There’s A Tear In My Beer”?
(Buzzcodes and answers, please.)

Justin?
Justin: Hank Williams sr and jr
Me: We just needed Hank Williams, but we'll give it to you.
You're in the chips now Justin. What move do you want to make?
