Super High Rollers - JC will be back in Episode 5! See ya!

[dad90]

Hello, Dayo here, aka dad90. I've managed to dodge a MAJOR bullet with Hurricane Dorian as Florida has gone through a LOT of powerful hurricanes, but never like Hurricane Dorian, which this storm has broken records, including that of Hurricane Andrew back in 1992. The Bahamas, however, is not so lucky. The Bahamas have never gone through such a powerful storm... until now.

With over 1,500 homes destroyed, more than 25 lives lost, and with such extreme shock, and even more than a dozen tornadoes within this storm, no question about it, this is now one of the Top 5 storms that shocked me to the core.

Tonight, we are going to help the people of the Bahamas out...





...with a special edition of Super High Rollers! We're going to have some special prizes, surprises and everything else in between, but more importantly, we're going to have lots of cash to give away to charities for helping out the victims of Hurricane Dorian.

Now, we some recaps to take care of...

1. James Greek is the current champion with $54,463.

2. This is the 4th Episode overall of the series.

3. To those who haven't seen the rulesheet: click here.

4. If you haven't seen the last episode, you should go check it out now.

5. The Jackpots are currently as follows:

SUPER JACKPOT - $1,000,000
HOT JACKPOT - $265,000 (+$5,000 each time it isn't won or +$10,000 if the champion is defeated in the Main Game)
ALL COLUMNS JACKPOT - $55,000 (+$5,000 each time it isn't won)
3 HOT COLUMNS JACKPOT - $25,000 (+$2,500 each time it isn't won)

With all that said, I need James to check in, along with 2 new challengers.

The two challengers are here, and now I need James, our champion, to check in.

[dad90]

And we got our players! We'll start Super High Rollers on the 10th!

Burton: And now, it's the return of the game of high stakes, where every decision is a gamble, and every move could be your last...

It's...

SUPER HIGH ROLLERS!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

And here's your host, the man who took 25 minutes in silence to honor the victims of Hurricane Dorian. The one with all of the action, Dayo Kayode!

(DK walks out the 3 dice)

DK: Thank you, Burton Richardson! And good morning, one and all, and welcome to Super High Rollers, where the game of skill, strategy, sabotage...



...and these 3 unpredictable dice have gone to a whole new level!

[dad90]

Hello, and welcome to a special Hurricane Relief Special Edition of Super High Rollers, where our players are not only going to be playing for themselves, but also for a special charity in honor of the victims in the Bahamas of Hurricane Dorian.

Let's meet our players. First we have JC Hines!

(Audience Cheers)

JC, tell the nice folks about yourself, where you're from, what you do, and what charity are you playing for...

[jch20088]

I am a freelance photographer from Branson, Missouri. And as much as I enjoy traveling all over the country with my job, my heart hurts for the people down in the Bahamas.

So tonight I am playing for the American Red Cross.

[dad90]

Well, I hope that you are taking pictures carefully should you be in the Bahamas, because remember, there are a lot of traumatized people and sadly, homeless people over there now. In any event, good luck to you and to the American Red Cross.

Next, we have Nels Snesrud!

(Audience Cheers)

Nels, tell the nice folks out there about yourself, where you're from, what you do, and what charity you are playing for.

[nelson17]

I’m a cashier at target who loves to bowl and I’m also playing for the Red Cross

[dad90]

Good luck to you and thanks for supporting the victims with the Red Cross.

Last, but not least, we have our champion who enjoys watching game shows and classic TV, listening to music and reading biographies. So far, he has won $54,463 in cash and prizes, James Greek!

(Audience Cheers)

James, you may have had some bad luck at the endgame last time, but you did really well from the last Main Game. First of all, do you have any strategy on how to beat the Super Numbers, let alone your opponents, and what charity are you playing for in this Hurricane Relief special?

[Deleted]

I do not know my charity, I will just give to those who support hurricane relief. But anyway I do not have a specific strategy. I just got back from Missouri and I could hsve very well saw JC. But I think ya charity is the Red Cross.

[dad90]

Going for the Red Cross as well! And since today is September 11, I'm going to throw 2 more special charities...

They are the New York City Police Foundation & FDNY Foundation in honor of the tens of thousands of first responders who bravely worked to rescue and treat 9/11 victims and the Salvation Army.

With all that said, let's hear it for our players today!



(Audience Cheers and Applause)

Now we got ourselves a game to play, but first, we have to go over the rules real quick.

We have 3 rounds of gameplay: Qualification, Elimination and Championship, and the object is try and eliminate as many of the 12 numbers as you can.

In the first round, the Qualification Round, we have the 12 numbers lined up like this...

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[9]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]

And underneath the 12 numbers hide prizes, but 2 of them hide 2 halves of a prize that is worth more than $5,000.

Now, to win any prizes at all, you have to win the round, and you can do that in 2 ways:

1. Clear the Last Number(s) off of the board.
2. Force your opponents into a Bad Roll.

If you can do either of that in this round, you'll be moving on to the Championship Round, while the other two will be moving on to the Elimination Round.

However, we're going to take a commercial break right now, and when we come back, we'll get the first round underway on Super High Rollers, so stay with us.

(All Star Blitz Prize Cue Plays; Audience Applause)

DK: Welcome back, everybody! I'm not going to even tell you about Friday the 13th like today, but what I can tell you is that this round is going to be dedicated to...



The Brady Bunch as they are celebrating their 50th anniversary! Therefore, all questions in this round will be about the Brady Bunch, and on top of that, in this first round, we have loaded up the board with more than $25,000 in cash and prizes!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

Now players, in order to get control of the dice, you must answer a Toss-Up question, in which in this round, they are all Multiple-Choice.

So without further ado, here's the first question of the day, and it goes a little something like this...

Who was the first choice to play Mike Brady?

A. Danny Thomas
B. Robert Reed
C. Gene Hackman
D. Robert Redford

JC: 16
Nels: 36
James: 3

Magic #: 48

(Buzz-In!)

And Nels buzzes in! What's your answer?

[nelson17]

Gene Hackman

[dad90]

Gene Hackman is the right answer!

(Audience Applause)

Sherwood Schwartz, the producer of the "Brady Bunch", actually wanted Gene Hackman to portray Mike Brady. Gene Hackman was not considered well-known enough for the part and it was later given to Robert Reed.

Nels, you get control of the dice.

(Nels picks up the dice)

Now, the 3 dice will total anywhere between 3 to 18.

GOOD ROLLS: 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

You will use the value of the roll to eliminate as many of the 12 numbers on the board as you can in any form of combination. In the event you roll a number that has no moves at all, you're out of the round. With that said, all 12 numbers are up there, and all rolls are good, so go ahead and roll the dice!

(Nels rolls the dice)



And the first roll is a 9. How are you going to play this out, Nels?

[nelson17]

The 9

[dad90]

Only the 9, huh? Well, let's see what's behind #9...

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[9]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[1/2 Denmark]--[?]--[?]--[?]

Oh! It's 1/2 of a Trip to Denmark!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

You find the other half and win the round and you're on your way to Denmark!

Insurance Markers/Prizes:

JC: 0/None
Nels: 0/1/2 Denmark
James: 0/None

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]

[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[XX]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[XX]--[?]--[?]--[?]

Of course, for other future prizes, if you want to get any hands on those, you have to win the round. With that said, let's proceed to the next question.

What actress was originally considered for the part of Carol Brady?

A. Joyce Bulifant
B. Ruth Buzzi
C. Goldie Hawn
D. Betty White

JC: 82
Nels: 55
James: 5

Magic #: 51

(Buzz-In!)

And Nels buzzes in! What's your answer?

[nelson17]

Joyce Bulifant

[dad90]

Joyce Bulifant is the correct answer!

(Audience Applause)

No one can hardly imagine the role of Mrs. Brady without Florence Henderson today. Do you actually think Ruth Buzzi could have carried off that classic seventies hair style? Florence Henderson's hairsytle created a fad for women in the seventies.

(Nels picks up the dice)

Everything's good here, so give it a roll!

(Nels rolls the dice)



And it's a Double!

(Doubles!)

(Audience Applause)

So that means that you've earned an Insurance Marker to protect you from 1 Bad Roll, Nels. The dice here totals 6, so how are you going to play this one?

[nelson17]

1 2 3

[dad90]

Going for the 1-2-3 punch. Here's what we got...

[1]--[2]--[3]--[4]
[Television]--[Camera]--[1/2 Denmark]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[XX]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[XX]--[?]--[?]--[?]

It's a Television, a Camera, and the other half of the Denmark Trip!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

Well, you now need to win the round in order for you win those prizes.

Insurance Markers/Prizes:

JC: 0/None
Nels: 1/Denmark, Television, Camera
James: 0/None

[XX]--[XX]--[XX]--[4]
[XX]--[XX]--[XX]--[?]
[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[XX]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[XX]--[?]--[?]--[?]

However, we now got a problem. We now got some Bad Rolls on the board, which means the control of the dice is now beginning to become more important. With that said, here's the next question.

What was the name of the family dog?

A. Fluffy
B. Tiger
C. Tigger
D. Charlie

JC: 51
Nels: 30
James: 7

Magic #: 63

(Buzz-In!)

And JC buzzes in! What's your answer?

[jch20088]

Tiger?

[dad90]

Tiger is correct!

(Audience Applause)

The reason the dog house remained on the set, even though he did not appear after season one, was because one of the studio lights fell and burned a hole in their beloved Astro-turf, so they moved the dog house to cover the burn hole.

JC, pick up the dice.

(JC does so)

[5]--[6]--[7]--[8]
[?]--[?]--[?]--[?]
[XX]--[10]--[11]--[12]
[XX]--[?]--[?]--[?]

Insurance Markers/Prizes:

JC: 0/None
Nels: 1/Denmark, Television, Camera
James: 0/None

BAD ROLLS: 3

There is only 1 Bad Roll, which is a 3. That means that rolling three 1's would be a Triple, and that would result in getting a Super Insurance Marker, which will allow to trade it for 3 regular Insurance Markers, but only if you win the round. Having a Super Insurance Marker WILL NOT save you from a Bad Roll. Only regular Insurance Markers.

That being said, are you going to roll the dice or pass them over to one of your opponents?

[jch20088]

I’m gonna roll!
