We have a game in progress in our third episode of High Rollers. Matt Ringgenberg is our defending champion. And after winning 2 matches, he has a total of $189,258 in cash and prizes. And his challenger for today is Kourtney Wilson.
We'll resume the game momentarily... but first, I'm looking for one or two stand-by contestants to play against the winner. If any of you want to join in on the action, please let me know and we'll get this show started.

OK, then... Before we went off the air, our champion Matt has won the first round of the match including the $500 house minimum. All of the prizes remain untouched after the end of the first round. So far, we have movie tickets for a year, a thousand gallons of gas, a fitness membership including a hot tub, and $2,000 in column 3. A total of $19,160. In column 1, we have a gas grill, a dining room set, a bunk bed or a membership to Sky Zone... and we'll another prize. William...? (contestants' intro)Bill: Black Hills Gold applies a rich, final touch to this ladies' watch sure to be admired and treasured for years to come. The classic design perfectly pairs a square goldtone case with a diamond accented champagne dial, gold tone 3-hand movement and markers. Finished with a 12k tri-color gold leaf and vine expansion band. A luxurious prize worth $1,299. That brings the total in column 1 to $10,145.(cheers and applause)Tony: And we're gonna add one more prize in column 2... Bill: It's Tony's Cashbox! Every round that this prize isn't won, we are adding $2,000 to the pot. And right now we are seeding the pot, with $2000 in cash! That brings the total in column 2, in cash and prizes, to $6,099.(cheers and applause)That brings the total value of the board to $35,404!(cheers and applause)Tony: Let's load in the numbers right now. (drum solo)
Hot Column for today's second round is column 3. A roll of 12 will get the 4 packaged prizes and cash worth $19,160. Before I read the first question, we'll pause for a couple of minutes... and then we'll start the game and see if one of you will take home the entire lot. We'll begin round 2 of High Rollers on USA... right after this. Stick around... (closing theme)(cheers and applause)*fade to commercial* =============================================================================

*back to studio* Welcome back to High Rollers.Before we begin the second round, I want to share some news with you. Back in 1974, Alex Trebek was the original man with all the action when High Rollers was aired on NBC. This may comes as an extreme shock to fans all over the world... so please... watch this video. (long applause, standing ovation)Let's all wish the legendary host Alex the very best of luck in beating cancer once and for all. Now that Matt & Kourtney are ready, let's begin round 1 with our first question... 32, 40, or 48-- How many black squares are there on a chess board?*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. You cannot repeat the buzz-code during this round.

(applause)Out goes the 2 and 8... (ding-ding)...leaving out the 4 in column 1. The Hot Column in column 3 is still in play. Next question... True or false-- Humans can distinguish between over a trillion different smells.

24 HOUR WARNING!
If Kourtney does not PM his buzz-code in less than 5 hours, it's strike one.

Post by tmann3x on Mar 9, 2019 14:29:48 GMT -5
(time up buzzer)Time's up... and Kourtney has missed the 24 hour deadline... strike 1. Matt, do you have an answer?
|
|
|
Post by mringgenberg on Mar 9, 2019 16:21:31 GMT -5
False
|
|
|
Post by tmann3x on Mar 9, 2019 17:20:50 GMT -5
The correct answer is TRUE.
Since Kourtney ends up with his first strike, we'll go to a brand new question.
Very loud, very quiet, or repeat-- What does pp on a music score mean?

Buzz-code answer: 19 1st: MATT (30) 2nd: KOURTNEY (49) (buzz-in)Matt...?

Post by mringgenberg on Mar 10, 2019 15:30:04 GMT -5
Repeat

Post by tmann3x on Mar 10, 2019 15:38:12 GMT -5
The correct answer is very quiet.
Kourtney, you now have control of the dice. The only bad roll is a 2. Do you want to roll or pass the dice to Matt?
