ME: The "Start of the Line" is light up for Anthony. Everybody has 3 squares left to win, except Kevin, who still has 4. Let's see if he can get on the board with the next question:

• Big Brother, Survivor, The Amazing Race. Which CBS Reality Show was hosted by Julie Chen since its inception?

Anthony: 53 (-01) Nels: 23 (+29) Kevin: 78 (-26) William: 20 (+32)

Magic #: 52

(Buzz-In!) (Audience groans)
ME: Aw. Someone missed out The Magic Number by one! Oh, no. It's Anthony. The bad news is that you've missed out another chance to win a $100 Bonus by one! But the good news is you can light up your number by answering correctly, since you've buzzed-in, I repeat the question: Big Brother, Survivor, The Amazing Race. Which CBS Reality Show was hosted by Julie Chen since its inception?

[Deleted]

Big Brother.

[romnserg]

ME: It's correct. Big Brother is absolutely right! (Ding) (Audience Applause) By the way, both CBS reality shows kept their original hosts since their premiere. Jeff Probst with "Survivor" and Phil Keoghan with "The Amazing Race". Anthony, it's such a shame of missing out another $100 Bonus, after winning one previously. However, you've got it right. So, betwen 05, 51 and 57, which number do you want to light up?

ME: Anthony lights up Number 57, "Heinz Doofenshmirtz's Variety-inator". You're two away from winning either the Elliptical Trainer, the Electric Fireplace or the Pool Table (The latter two from the previous episode, by the way). And this is looking good for you and also for Rarity. Let's keep moving with the next question:

• Yes or No. The Richter scale is used to measure the intensity of hurricanes.

Anthony: 36 (-01) Nels: 76 (-01) Kevin: 20 (+55) William: 98 (-23)

Magic #: 75

(Buzz-In!) (Audience groans again)
ME: Oh, no. Not again! That's the second time in a row today, that someone misses out The Magic Number by one! But someone buzzed-in, and that's Nels. I repeat the question: Yes or No. The Richter scale is used to measure the intensity of hurricanes.

[nelson17]

No

[romnserg]

ME: Well done! (Ding) (Audience Applause) Of course, the Richter scale measure the earthquakes, while the hurricanes are measured by the Saffir-Simpson scale. Nels, which number do you want to light up next? 06, 56 or 59?

ME: Number 59, "The Brighton Line". And that allows Nels to draw level with Anthony, but Kevin is still scoreless. Let's reveal the next question, but first of all, these are the answers:

• Hungary, Poland, Ukraine. Warsaw is the capital city of what European country?

Anthony: 49 (-42) Nels: 73 (-67) Kevin: 100 (-93) William: 90 (-83)

Magic #: 07

(Buzz-In!)
ME: Anthony?

[Deleted]

Poland

[romnserg]

ME: Correct! (Ding) (Audience Applause) The capital city of Hungary is Budapest, while the capital city of Ukraine is Kiev or Kyiv. Well, Anthony. One question stands between you and one of the three prizes, but first we need a corner. 05 or 51?

• Argentina, Chile, Mexico. In which Latin American country did the tango originate?

Anthony: 100 (-91) Nels: 48 (-39) Kevin: 15 (+06) William: 24 (-15)

Magic #: 09

(Buzz-In!)
ME: Kevin finally buzzes-in!

[koopakid17]

Argentina.

[romnserg]

ME: Bam Bam! (Ding) (Audience Applause) Yes, Kevin. It is indeed Argentina, thank goodness you're finally on the board. Choose a corner, you have 02, 08, 53 and 60.

(I walk through the doors as they open to reveal Victoria, Gage and Cymphonique with the three prizes located). We have Cymphonique with the Elliptical Trainer, Gage with the Electric Fireplace and Victoria with the Pool Table. Anthony, what's your prize choice?

[Deleted]

The Pool Table please.

[romnserg]

Feb 22, 2019 16:10:38 GMT -5 @geniusinmath said:

The Pool Table please.

ME: Before revealing the price of the Pool Table, the Elliptical Trainer and the Electric Fireplace are carried over the next show. And George Gray. Will you please tell us more about the Pool Table?

George: Of course, Sergio. Anthony, you're lucky to pick that Pool Table, because this is ideal for entertaining friends, and what's a pool table without these accessories which includes: 15 Numbered Balls with Cue Ball, 15 Red Balls with Cue Ball, 6 Balls of different colours, 6 cues (4 Standard Cues and 2 Rest shafts with rest head), scoreboard, cover brush to clean the cloth, 2 chalks and 2 black triangles. Victoria, will you tell us how much is worth this Pool Table?
Victoria: George, that Pool Table for Anthony is worth: (She reveals the prize) $1,199! (Audience applause as I return to my lectern)
ME: Thank you, girls. The fun doesn't finish and of course, I have to congratulate you because no one's been "Wallied" in this Round! (Audience cheers and applause) And this is it, let's have a look at the state of each of our players and their respective Bingo Cards:

ANTHONY

[01][16][23][32][XX][51]
[XX][17][28][36][44][55]
[05][20][XX][39][49][57]
TOTAL: $1,299

Anthony is a very big candidate to play "Gambit" once more this morning as the "Ocean's Legs Eleven" equal to 11 sqaures left for a "Full House" and a grand total of $1,299 in cash and prizes prove it.

NELS

[06][11][25][33][XX][56]
[XX][12][29][34][41][58]
[07][15][XX][38][47][59]
TOTAL: $0

However Nels is behind him as he had the same result as yesterday, "Monkey's Dozen of Cousins" means 12 squares for a "Full House", but he has no money!

KEVIN

[02][XX][21][31][42][53]
[04][14][24][35][45][XX]
[08][19][26][XX][48][60]
TOTAL: $0

Kevin wasn't lucky in this Round. He only light up one corner, but as I normally say :"It's better than nothing". He needs "Valentine's Day" or 14 squares for a "Full House", but just like Nels, he has no money as well!

WILLIAM

[03][XX][22][37][43][52]
[09][13][27][40][46][XX]
[10][18][30][XX][50][54]
TOTAL: $0

ME: Despite of been the first one to open his the score, William was unlucky as Kevin as he ties in last place. He also needs "Valentine's Day", which is 14 squares for a "Full House", but he has no money as well! Here's how their players have done so far, but coming up our players have to fill their "Middle Line" by choosing any of the 6 out of 20 categories in "Sergio's Master Card". But that will be when "Full House-Gambit Hour" returns right after this! (Audience cheers and applause)

[romnserg]

(Audience cheers and applause)
ME: Well, Welcome back to "Full House-Gambit Hour". Before the break Anthony managed to light up his "Four Corners" as his reward was a Pool Table. The game continues, because it's time for Round 2: "The Middle Line"!
ROUND 2: MIDDLE LINE
In this Round, you pick the categories in turn. I will ask the questions¡, but before that you have to choose a number from your "Middle Line", and then you'll see what subject does that number represent. To choose a category, you have to pick it from The "Sergio's Master Card" Board. (Audience applause as I go to the big screen) Every time we play that Round, we play 6 of the possible 20 categories in every single turn, and they are: Architecture, Art & Stage, Business World, Communities, Design, Film, Food & Drink, Geography, History, Humans, Language, Literature, Music, Nature, Politics, Science, Sports & Games, Technology, Tradition & Beliefs and TV & Radio. We'll reveal the 6 categories for the first turn when I say: "In Bingo Lingo Clickety-Clicks, it's time to take your pick of the six". Shazam! (Category Reveal)

01-10 -> XXL
ARCHITECTURE (Buildings, Architects and Designers)


11-20 -> XXL
GEOGRAPHY (Countries, Cities, Oceans and Seas)


21-30 -> XXL
SPORTS & GAMES (Athletes, Sports, Games and Records)


31-40 -> XXL
HUMANS (Physiology, Anatomy, Psychology, Medicine and Lifestyles)


41-50 -> XXL
FILM (Titles, Actors, Directors and Roles)


51-60 -> XXL
HISTORY (Historical persons, Places and Events)


Each category corresponds to a range of 10 consecutive numbers (01-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60). Architecture from 01 to 10, Geography from 11 to 20; Sports & Games from 21 to 30; Humans from 31 to 40; Film from 41 to 50 and History from 51 to 60. These are the the categories, look at the numbers on your "Middle Line", see which numbers correspond with the subjects you like. Well, the challengers don't know it, but everybody has their own "Lucky Number"! If you pick it, you've got a chance to answer the question to light up that number and win a $200 Bonus plus a "Gift Card"! (Audience oohs) Each player calls a number off your own middle row and I'm asking a question from that category. A correct answer lights up the number, but a wrong answer will freeze the player out and it's "Open to the Others". A correct buzz-in allows you to light any number on your own middle row, while an incorrect answer or missing the deadline will freeze you out as well! If the player who's been frozen out was next in the line to choose a number, that player loses their turn. Otherwise, that player can't buzz-in on the next question in case of a miss. In the event of "Buzz-in", the other three players have to PM their buzzcodes from 1 to 100. Anyone who gets closer to the Magic Number will get to answer, but no bonus will be given if any of the three gets "The Magic Number" right off the bat. If someone misses the deadline, that player is frozen out as well. And the first player to light up the "Middle Line" wins the round, and gets the choice of these three prizes. George, will you tell us what are they?
George: Sergio, for the "Middle Line" the winner will have the choice of either: An Antique Rug, An La-Z-Boy Sofa or A Curio Cabinet.
(Audience cheers and applause)
To avoid unfairness, we start with the player with the fewest squares light up, but it seems that's both Kevin and William. So we start with the player who was the slowest. And it has to be you, Kevin. Let's see your Bingo Card.

KEVIN

[02][XX][21][31][42][53]
[04][14][24][35][45][XX]
[08][19][26][XX][48][60]

The numbers you have in your "Middle Line" are represented in italics. They are 04, 14, 24, 35 and 45. Look at them and pick the category you like by telling me the number (Respond HERE, not through PM!).

[koopakid17]

Sports & Games.

[romnserg]

01-10 -> XXL
ARCHITECTURE (Buildings, Architects and Designers)


11-20 -> XXL
GEOGRAPHY (Countries, Cities, Oceans and Seas)


21-30 -> 24
SPORTS & GAMES (Athletes, Sports, Games and Records)

HISTORY (Historical persons, Places and Events)

ME: Excuse me, Kevin. But you need to say a number, not the category. Anyway, Number 24. "Score some more two dozen". The category is "Sports and Games". Here's the first question:

• Which of these countries doesn't compete in the "Six Nations Championship"?
• France
• Italy
• Spain

[/ol][/ul](Anthony, Nels, William. Please PM me your buzzcode and answer, alongside your middle line number, in case Kevin answers incorrectly)

[koopakid17]

I'll say Italy.

[romnserg]

(Buzz) (Audience groans)
ME: Oh, no, it isn't Italy. Bad luck, Kev. You've froze yourself out. Anthony, Nels and William. You know what to do, but before that. I repeat the question:

• Which of these countries doesn't compete in the "Six Nations Championship"?
• France
• Italy
• Spain

[/ol][/ul]

Anthony: 33 (+50) Nels: 22 (+61) Kevin: KO (XX) William: 56 (+27)

Magic #: 83

(Buzz-In!)
ME: William?
William: France.
(Buzz) (Audience groans)
ME: It's also wrong. France joined the tournament in 1910, and after been expelled in 1932 due to professionalism rumors they've returned in 1947, when they've competed every single year since then. And Italy joned the tournament in 2000. This means, the answer I've been looking for is Spain. William, you were supposed to choose a category by calling a number from your own "Middle Line", but that wrong answer froze yourself out as well! However, not everything is bad news, because I will ask a "Penalty Open To All" Question at the end of Turn 1, that will be explained a little bit more when we come to that point. Nels, we come to you. Let's take a look at your "Middle Line". You have 12, 29, 34, 41 and 58. Look at them and pick the category you like by telling me the number (Respond HERE, not through PM!).
