Ball 6 is green! Another $100 for you...
[CLEMENT][$1,100]
[_10_]|[10♠]
More importantly, it gives you control of this card. Charlene?
[K♥]
Charlene: It's a King.
Me: Hmm, interesting scenario. You can keep that King and freeze on 20 or you can take a risk by giving it to Doug and he can't freeze at 19 unless he wins control of a question. What do you want to do?

You got it. Here's your card...
[CLEMENT][$1,100]
[_20_]|[10♠][K♥]
And you're opting to freeze at 20.
[CLEMENT][$1,100]
[_20_]|[10♠][K♥]
Now, Doug. To play the bonus round, you must get 21 exactly. For that to happen, you need any combination that adds up to twelve. Charlene, deal Doug's next card.
[2♠]
Charlene: It's a two!
Me: Ooh, this game just got very interesting...
[DOUG][$900]
[_11_][9♣][2♠]
Doug, you're now a ten or a face card away from playing for $25,000. Charlene, may we see Doug's next card, please?
[K♣]
Charlene: IT'S A KING!!!
Me: Wow!
[DOUG][$1,400]
[_21_][9♣][2♠][K♣]
Talk about snatching victory from the jaws of defeat! Doug, for that 21, you're off to the Bonus Round! First, though, let's hear about a prize he just won. Charlene?
Charlene: Doug, you've just won $2,500 in free gas, courtesy of the ExxonMobil company! ExxonMobil is the world's largest publicly traded international oil and gas company and committed to energy conservation. See how you can make a difference by taking our energy quiz online. ExxonMobil: Energy lives here.
Me: Congratulations again, Doug! Clement, I don't blame you one bit for freezing on 20. The luck of the cards just swayed out of your favor with that. But hey, you've still won $1,100 and that big screen TV so that's nothing to sneeze at.
Doug, you'll play for $25,000 when we come back! Don't go away!

It's been a good night so far for you, Doug. You have $1,400 in cash and the ExxonMobil gift card. Are you ready to play for $25,000?

Okay, here's how it works. The $1,400 cash and the gas card are yours to keep no matter what happens. We're going to deal you three hands, starting with a base card on each. After that, you control where the next card will go. You're aiming to get as many 21's on the hands as you can. Get one 21 and you win $1,000. Get two and we increase it to $5,000. Get 21's on all three of those hands and you win $25,000!
*cheers and applause*
Of course, if Charlene deals a card you're not particularly fond of, you can use one of your power chips. You have four power chips, one for each round you won, another for winning the game and another for the 21 you scored to win one of those rounds. However, if you use a power chip, you must see the card after that. Without further ado, Charlene is going to deal the three base cards...
[4♣]
Charlene: We're going to start with a 4.
Me: Okay, now deal the next card if you please.
[K♠]
Charlene: It's a King.
Me: And rounding out, we have...
[A♠]
Charlene: An Ace!
Me: So, here's what your hands look like...
[_4__]|[4♣]
[_10_]|[K♠]
[1/11]|[A♠]
(PC)(PC)(PC)(PC)
Now we're going to start building on. Charlene, what is Doug's next card?
[8♥]
Charlene: It's an eight.
Me: Now, Doug, you can build that eight onto any of the three hands or you can use a power chip. What do you want to do?

[1/11]|[A♠]
(PC)(PC)(PC)
Let's all hope he'll be back when you have 13 on one of your hands. Charlene, deal the next card...
[K♥]
Charlene: It's a King!
Me: Yes! That's an instant 21 on the bottom hand!
[_4__]|[4♣]
[_10_]|[K♠]
[_21_]|[A♠][K♥]
(PC)(PC)(PC)
That's also worth $1,000. Doug, it's a little early but do you want to quit with $1,000 right now?

All right. You're still in pretty good shape as Charlene deals the next card...
[6♥]
Charlene: It's a six.
Me: What do you want to do with the six, Doug?

If the next card is an Ace, you'll go up to $5,000. What do you have for us, Charlene?
[Q♠]
Charlene: It's a Queen.
Me: All right, Doug, it's decision time. Play that Queen or use a power chip?

Uhhh -- sure I can't put that with the Ace of Spades and King of Diamonds for a hard 21?  |

Post by koopakid17 on Jan 14, 2015 21:38:07 GMT -5
Sorry, Doug. You can't do that. The Ace in that hand had to be called 11 to get that 21.

You have one Power Chip left. Let's see your next card.

All right, then. Here's hoping for an eight or an Ace for $5,000. Charlene, deal the card...
[Q♥]
Charlene: It's a Queen.
Me: Tough spot for that. You can play that Queen or use your final power chip. What do you want to do?

Geez, Louise! I'll play my last power chip.

A five or an Ace gets you 21. Charlene, what is Doug's next card?
[4♠]
Charlene: It's a four.
Me: Ooh, so close. You must play that card, Doug. Where do you want to put it?
