Matt...?

July 4, 1776

[tmann3x]

In the 19th century, when it became a symbol of the abolition of slavery.

(audience groans)



So that means Kourtney gets control of the dice.  Whenever you're ready, roll the dice.

(rolls dice)

It's an 8.  Which of the numbers do you want to remove?

[pathfinder20]

The 8 by itself please.

[tmann3x]

(applause)


Out goes the 8...

(ding)


And we have two open spots on the board--  a roll of a 6 would clear column 2 and a roll of a 9 would clear column 3 and a possible chance at winning an automobile valued at almost 80 grand.  Next question...



Flour, sugar, or salt--  What is another name for sodium chloride?

[tmann3x]

Buzz-code answer:  55


1st:  KOURTNEY (54)
2nd:  MATT (74)

Kourtney...?

[pathfinder20]

Salt.

[tmann3x]

Salt is correct.

(applause)


Here's your dice. Let 'em roll, Kourtney!


(Kourtney rolls dice)

It's an 11.  And you could possibly clear a column off the board.  Which numbers do you want to remove?

[pathfinder20]

1,2,3 and 5

[tmann3x]

(cheers and applause)


Out goes 1, 2, 3, and 5!

(ding-ding-ding-ding)

And you have cleared column 2!


(winning bell sounds, cheers and applause)

In order to claim the prize package, you must win this tie breaker.


Before I read the next question, we'll pause for a commercial.  We'll continue with the tie breaker on High Rollers after this.  Stick around.



(closing theme)

(cheers and applause)

(cheer and applause)

Welcome back to High Rollers.  We're in the midst of a tie breaker between our champion Matt and Kourtney.  So far, our challenger had cleared column 2.  If he wins this tie breaker, not only he'll become our new champion... but also win the ring, a ride on a Rolls Royce, $2,000 in cash, and a trip to Hawaii.


If the both of you are ready, here comes our next question.




Elliptical, Circumflex, or Spiral--  What type of galaxy is the Milky Way?

[tmann3x]

Buzz-code answer:  14


1st:  KOURTNEY (45)
2nd:  MATT (71)


(buzz-in)

Kourtney...?

[pathfinder20]

Elliptical

[tmann3x]

It was SPIRAL.  Matt gets control of the dice.


Mr. Ringgenberg... before you roll, please take a look at the board.

The good rolls are 4, 7, 9, and 11.  Do you want to roll or pass the dice to Kourtney?

[mringgenberg]

I'll pass them.

[tmann3x]

Kourtney, the dice roll is all yours.  You need to role the following numbers, 4, 7, 9, or 11, to stay in the game.  Roll an 11 and you'll clear the third column.  Roll the dice.


(Kourtney rolls dice)

It's an 11!

(wild cheers and applause)


We'll automatically remove the 4 and 7.

(ding, ding)

And you've cleared column 3!


(winning bell sounds, cheers and applause)

If Kourtney wins the match and become our new champion, he'll be playing Love Letters.

Here comes the final question...





Ralph Bunche, Thurgood Marshall, or Martin Luther King Jr.
--  What famous American was presented with the Medal of Freedom by President John F. Kennedy in 1963?

[tmann3x]

Buzz-code answer:  87


1st:  MATT (96)
2nd:  KOURTNEY (45)



(buzz-in)

Matt...?

[mringgenberg]

Martin Luther King Jr.

[tmann3x]

It was RALPH BUNCHE.

Kourtney, the dice roll is yours.


(applause)

The only good roll is a 9.  Do you want to roll or pass the dice to Matt?

[pathfinder20]

Here you go Matt!

[tmann3x]

Matt... that dice is now yours.  You have no insurance marker, but you must roll a 9 to clear column 1 and retain your championship title.  Anything but a 9... and Kourtney will become our new champion.  It's now all up to you, Matt... roll the dice.




(Matt rolls dice)

(buzzer)


The game is over.  Kourtney Wilson is our new champion!!!!


(win cue, cheers and applause)

Congrats on winning the tie breaker, Kourtney.  Before you play our side game, I must say farewell to our former champ.


Matt, you were a tremendously great player.  Care to say any final words before we ring up the total?

[mringgenberg]

It has been a great experience.

[tmann3x]

That's great to hear, Matt.  Along with the prizes, the $500 in the previous round and $100,000 for playing the Big Numbers... you'll be leaving us here with a grand total of--

...in cash and prizes.

(wild cheers and applause)



Give it up one more time for Matt Ringgenberg, everyone...


(contestant's exit cue)

(cheers and applause)





So Kourtney... it's just you and me right now.  Are you ready to try out to play our side game?

[pathfinder20]

Yes sir, I am ready to play!

[tmann3x]

OK then...

First, please hand me a single die.  The reason for this is that you're gonna play a side game called "LOVE LETTERS".  Please take a look at the HD screen...

The object of this side game is to roll the die six times.  For each roll, we'll reveal a letter that is in the puzzle.  Each of them is worth $250.  If you roll the same number that was revealed, it's out of play.  After your final roll, you have one chance to solve that word.  Solve it correctly, and you'll automatically win this 2019 Jaguar F-Pace SVR worth almost $80,000.

(audience gasps)

(cheers and applause)


Any further questions before you roll, Kourtney?

[pathfinder20]

No questions here, let’s roll!

[tmann3x]

Alrighty then... good luck to you.  Roll that die.


(Kourtney rolls die)

It's a 4.  Let's reveal a letter in 4.

(ding)


It's an X.  $250.  Roll again...


(rolls die)

It's a 5, this time.  Let's load in the next letter.

(ding)


It's an E and you have $500.

[tmann3x]

Roll again.


(rolls dice)

It's a 5.  (audience groans)  That roll is out of play so we can't give you another letter.  Roll again, if you please.


(rolls dice)

It's a 2!  (cheers, applause)  Let's reveal a letter in 2.

(ding)


It's an I.  $750 with two rolls to go.  Roll again...



(rolls dice)

(cheers and applause)


It's a 6!  Let's see that letter!

(ding)


We have an S.  $1,000 and one more roll to go.  Let's see you roll either a 1 or 3, Kourtney.  Let 'em roll!



(rolls die)

(audience groans)


Another 4... and we're done with the rolls.

So far, you've gained $1,000 and these four letters.  If you can solve this word, you'll win an automobile valued at $79,990 in price.  If not, you'll still get your $1,000.  For now, let's see you win that car.  Can you solve it?

[pathfinder20]

I am going to take a stab at it and say JINXES.

[tmann3x]

If it's JINXES, you'll win that car.  If not, you'll end up with just a grand.  For the car... is the Love Letters' word JINXES?

(winning bell sounds, cheers and applause)

(win cue, cheers and applause continue)

Congrats on winning that Jaguar, Kourtney.  How do you feel after winning that automobile?
