ERIN: And you will get 3, 8 and 9. We'll start with James, who started the game by picking 2. Let's see what you're going to start out with.
It's going to be $90.ding! That is the largest amount you can get in this round. Now with 7, your next selection, you are about to add...
…$40 to the $90 you have, making it $130.ding! And what will you get from your final selection, 1?
$70, so you have an even $200.ding! Well Matt, James came charging out of the gate, and so you'll need some great picks to keep up with him. Your first selection was 3, and you are going to get...
…$30 to start out with.ding! Next up is 8; how much more is that worth?
It's worth $50, so now you have $80.ding! And finally, let's see what you will get from 9.
It will be $80, so you double your cash to $160.ding! So at the end of Round 1, James lead Matt, $200 to $160. But let's start a new round, with a 16-hole punch card and amounts ranging from $25 to $400.(round intro cue) Each of you will have four selections, and this time, it's Matt who will pick first.(Please select four numbers from 1 to 16.)

ERIN: So your numbers are 2, 4, 8 and 11. First up is Matt, who started the round by picking 1. How much is that worth?
It's $300, so now you have $460.ding! Then you picked 16, and you will add to your total...
...another $150, making your total $610.ding! Then you picked 12 as your third number; let's see how much more you'll get.
It's going to be just $25, but you go up to $635.ding! And finally, how much more will you get with 6?
$75 more, so you now have $710.ding! Let's go over to James, with $200 to build on. First selection is 2, and with that, you will add...
…$350 to the pile, giving you $550.ding! Second, you picked 4; how much more will you add?
You will add $100, for a total of $650.ding! Your third pick was 8; let's see how much more you get.
It's $375, so you now have $1,025.ding! And last but not least, you picked 11, and you will end up with...
...another $50, giving you a grand total of $1,075 at the moment.ding! (Punch Card Theme) So at this point in the game, James leads Matt, $1,075 to $710. We'll have our third round ready to go after a word from our sponsors.

ERIN: And Matt gets 22, 5, 24, 10 and 17. Let's start with you, James. Your first selection was 8, and how much is that worth?
It's $800, so you go up to $1,875.ding! Next, you selected 9, and to that, you will add...
…$750, making it $2,625.ding! Your third selection was 15; let's see how much is there.
It's $700, so you have $3,325.ding! Fourth, you picked 21, and how much more will you get?
You will get $200 more, taking you up to $3,525.ding! And your last selection, 4, is going to be worth...
...another $850, for a total of $4,375.ding! Now over we go to Matt, with his $710 coming into the round. First up is 22; let's see how much you're going to get from that.
It'll be $900, and that takes you up to $1,610.ding! Your second selection was 5, and how much is it worth?
Another $150, making it $1,760.ding! Then you made 24 your third selection, which is going to be worth...
…$1,000 more, so you go up to $2,760.ding! Fourth, you picked 10, which is worth how much?
$650, so you now have $3,410.ding! Now let's see what you will get with your final selection, 17.
You'll get $450 more, giving you a total of $3,860.ding! (Punch Card Theme) So now it's James at $4,375, and Matt at $3,860. When we return, we will have our final round to determine our winner, so stay right there!

(There you go.) ERIN: So Matt's picks are 23, 26, 5, 27, 18 and 10, and James' picks are 8, 9, 32, 33, 13 and 21. First off, let's start with Matt, whose current total is $3,860. Your first pick was 23, and that gives you...
…$1,100, so you now have $4,960.ding! Next, you selected 26, and how much more will you get?
$900, and that takes you up to $5,860.ding! Your third selection was 5; let's see how much that's worth.
It's worth $3,000, so your total is $8,860.ding! Fourth up is 27, which is worth...
...another $3,400, making it $12,260.ding! The fifth pick is 18, and what will you add to your pile?
It'll be $1,900, so you have $14,160.ding! And now, let's see what you will get with your final pick of the game, 10.
It's $1,500, so you have a grand total of $15,660.ding! And so, at $4,375, James must get at least $11,285 to move on to the Bonus Round. Your first pick was 8, and how much will you add?
$2,000, making it $6,375.ding! Next, you selected 9; let's see what you'll get from that.
It's $1,000, so you have $7,375.ding! Then you picked 32, and that one is worth...
…$1,600 more, for $8,975.ding! I think this is going to be a close one, with three more picks to go. How much will you get from your fourth selection, 33?
You'll get $1,200, taking it up to $10,175.ding! Your fifth pick was 13; time to find out how much it's worth.
$2,700, so you have $12,875.ding! Now this last pick is going to determine which one of you advances to the Bonus Round. And when we look at 21, we will discover that James will add...
...another $3,100 to the pile, giving him a grand total of $15,975. So by a margin of $315, James is the winner!(multiple dings and win cue) Matt, I thought you were going to come from behind, and you did make some strong picks, but James held on in the end, but you have your $15,660, and we thank you for taking the time to play our fun, exciting game.(Punch Card Theme) In a moment, James is going to face the Bonus Round, with a shot at $100,000, plus a car, a trip and some other great prizes! We'll be back after this.

ERIN: We're back with James, who won by one of the smallest margins ever in the history of Punch Card, and is now taking on the Bonus Round, so let's get to it right now!(Bonus Round intro cue) We have a 49-hole punch card, and you will select seven numbers. In addition to cash amounts ranging from $500 to $100,000, there are also a few great prizes that you can win, like a trip and a car. But there are also two dangers hidden among the holes: 1/2 Cash, in which you lose half of your cash amount, and Lose it All, which is pretty much self-explanatory. And because of this, you will have the option to quit after each pick. So now that you're ready, let's play the Bonus Round! Which seven holes are you going to choose?(Please select seven numbers from 1 to 49.)

ERIN: All of your selections have been made, so here we go with your first pick, 4. Remember, you can stop at anytime and take what you have up to that point. Let's see what you're going to start off with.
It's $500.ding! That's the second-lowest amount on the board, so I assume you'd like to continue.
