On today's episode, Kevin Kolsen is back. After his very first win, including both Blackjack Bonus in a tie breaker and Beat The Dealer, he has a grand total of $241,595 in cash and prizes. Right now, we're looking for an opponent to play against him. If you want to participate, please let me know and be on standby.

On-- A game of skill, fate, and fortune. And now, from Television City in Hollywood, here's your host... Tony Lane![CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Thank you, Frank! Good morning, folks... and welcome to Gambit. TV's only show where a 21 or a blackjack could lead to a dazzling array of cash and prizes... including the top cash prize... $1 million. While our original Jim Thornton is busy announcing "Wheel of Fortune" at the Sony Studios, we have a guest announcer for this episode. Please welcome him to the show playing the role as the late Rod Roddy... give it up for Frank Caliendo! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] On yesterday's broadcast, we have a champion who have won not only one... but two Blackjack Bonus wins. And he's back trying to win the million. We'll meet him later. But first, let's meet our lovely card dealer. Give it up for our very own... Jennifer Love Hewitt. [WILD CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] Jennifer: Thanks, Tony. Super Bowl weekend is just around the corner and we'll find out who's gonna play against me in Beat The Dealer. Right now, let's meet our two players. [CONTESTANTS' INTRO] Our challenger is from Marlton, New Jersey. Please welcome MICHAEL CLIFFORD. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And playing against him is our returning champion. Making his second appearance with a total of $241,595 in cash and prizes, he's an accountant from Long Island, New York. Please welcome KEVIN KOLSEN. [MORE CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Thanks, Jenn. We'll see you after the break. First, let's meet Michael to our show. Please tell us about yourself. |

Sure thing. I'm Kevin, born and raised on Long Island, New York where I work as an accountant. We're coming to the time of the year where we prepare for the upcoming tax season so things are starting to get hectic. I also want to give a shout-out to everybody watching on my affiliate, WCBS Channel 2! *waves* Hi!

Good luck to you, Kevin. Before we get to the game, we'll pause shortly for a commercial. After the break, we'll be playing the first round and see who's gonna reach either a 21 or blackjack. We'll have that answer when Gambit begins right after this commercial time out. Stick around. [CLOSING THEME][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]*fade to commercial* |

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] Welcome back to Gambit. Now that Kevin and Michael are ready, let's begin our first round. And remember... whoever wins the best 2 out of 3 rounds will be playing Beat The Dealer for a chance to win up to $1 million. Let's take a look at the big money board.  [CLANG]Whoever gets a combination of at least three cards that add up to 21 wins the pot bonus of $3,500. But if you get a blackjack... an Ace and either a 10 or face card, wins the Blackjack Bonus of $10,000. Let's turn our attention to card dealer Jennifer Love Hewitt as she reveals the first card in round 1. Jenn...?  Jennifer: Our first card in round 1 is a 3.  Tony: Each correct answer is $100... and the player who's closer to 21 than the opponent (without going over) scores an additional $500. Here's this question. Drinking, smoking, or sniffing glue-- When Lloyd Bridges comes out from under the table with spiked hair in Airplane!, what does he say he picked the wrong time to quit doing?*You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. |

Sniffing glue?

Sniffing glue is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING] $100 for you, Kevin. Do you want to keep the 3 or pass it to Michael? |

Post by koopakid17 on Jan 20, 2015 7:33:39 GMT -5
I'm passing it!

 So means Michael gets a 3. Jennifer won't reveal the next card unless someone answers this next question. Jimmy Swaggart, Jim Bakker, or Oral Roberts-- In front of a congregation of millions, who said, "I have sinned..."? |

Jimmy Swaggart is right! [APPLAUSE, DING] $200 for you, Kevin. Do you want to keep the card or pass it to Michael? |

I'll take this card.

Jennifer, please reveal Kevin's first card.  Jennifer: Kevin's first card is an Ace! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] Tony: Kevin... if your next card is either a 10 or face card, you'll win the $10,000 Blackjack Bonus. Next question... Cy Young, David Wells, or Sandy Koufax-- On September 9, 1965, who threw a 1-0 perfect game for Los Angeles? |

Sandy Koufax.

Post by tmann3x on Jan 24, 2015 1:12:22 GMT -5
Sandy Koufax is correct. [APPLAUSE, DING] A 10 or face card is what you need to win the $10,000 Blackjack Bonus. Do you want to keep the card or pass it to Michael? |

I'll keep it and hope for the best!

Good luck to you, Kevin. If your next card is either a 10 or face card, you'll win the $10,000 Blackjack Bonus. Jennifer... please reveal Kevin's next card. Jennifer: Kevin, your next card is-- *reveals card*  --an 8. [AUDIENCE GROANS][APPLAUSE] Tony: The bad news is that you have a total of 9 or a possible 19. The Blackjack Bonus is out of play, but the 21 Bonus pot of $3,500 is still on the line. Before I read the next question, you have a decision to choose. Do you want to continue this round or freeze? |

Post by koopakid17 on Jan 24, 2015 22:07:55 GMT -5
I'll freeze at 19!

Post by tmann3x on Jan 24, 2015 23:29:16 GMT -5
 Jennifer will now place the FREEZE marker on Kevin's 19. Michael... no have no cash on the board except the 3. You need at least a 20 for the first game of the match... but not over 21. You must answer each and every question right in order to stay in the game. If at any event that your answer is wrong. Kevin wins the round and an additional $500. Here comes your question. A Perfect World, JFK, or The Postman-- Kevin Costner Plays Jim Garrison in which of the following films? |

(Tony didn't mention how if Kevin would've passed the 8, I would've had 11. All righty then!)
JFK |

Thanks for that correction, Michael. However... JFK is the correct answer. [APPLAUSE, DING] $100 for you and your next card is coming right up. Jennifer... please reveal Michael's next card.  Jennifer: It's an Ace.  Tony: You now have a 4 or a possible 14. You need a 6 to win... a 7 could lead to the $3,500 21 bonus and a win. Next question... Venus, Jupiter, or Mars-- Which is the only planet that rotates clockwise? |

Venus is correct. [DING, APPLAUSE] You need a 6 or 7 to win the first round of the match... especially a 7 for the 21 Bonus pot of $3,500. Jennifer... please reveal Michael's next card. *Jennifer reveals card*  Jennifer: It's a 6! Tony: Michael wins the round and an additional $500! [WINNING BELL SOUNDS, WIN CUE, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] At the end of round 1, our challenger Michael have won the round and a cash total of $700 while our champ ends up with only $300. Coming up after the break, we'll be playing the second round and see if the champ could make a comeback. We'll return with more of Gambit right after this. Stick around, folks...
