And we're off...
Ace is high, deuce is low, If I see an eight, out the studio I'll go on...
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Hello, everybody! Welcome once again to Card Sharks! We've had a champ who's been on a great run. He won another car on our last show. Will he break $100,000 today? We'll find out together. While our models Charlene and Terri deal the cards, let's meet our sharks!
*Matt and Immanuel run to their podiums*
There's our Matt Ringgenberg playing in red. This is his sixth day here. He's won $93,675!
*cheers and applause*
How does it feel, Matt?

I'm sure it does. There's someone who wants a piece of that action, and his name is Immanuel Tims. Immanuel, tell us about yourself, please.

Very nice. I hope you'll make Card Sharks your favorite when this half hour is over. I'll show you how.
MATT [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
You and Matt are aiming to get across the board by calling cards, higher or lower than the one preceding it. It takes two rounds to go to the Money Cards where you could win tens of thousands of dollars. You earn the right to call cards by answering high-low questions. They are designed to judge your ability to analyze human nature. Matt, our champion, gets the first one. Matt, our man on the street went to New York City. He stood in front of a garbage can and asked 100 people passing by:
"If there was a $100 bill in this garbage can, would you dig for it?"
How many people would have dug for the $100 bill in the garbage, Matt?

26 passersby in New York City would dig in a garbage can for that $100 bill. Immanuel, do you think the actual number is higher or lower?

Higher says Immanuel. Not playing for money here just yet, but that may change if one of you gets on a good run. The actual number of people who would have dug for a $100 bill in the garbage is... 55! Immanuel had that one right. $100 is still a lot of money for some people, even if they are willing to get dirty. MATT [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Immanuel, your base card... MATT [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [2 ♣][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Is a deuce!

For Round 1 and $500, is this final card lower? MATT [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [2 ♣][3 ♥][5 ♥][Q ♥][Q ♣] It's not! *buzzer* I don't believe it. You had it all going for you, and then a double happens. You go all the way back to your base... MATT [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [2 ♣][___][___][___][___] Matt gets to see his base card. You must play off this: MATT [8 ♠][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [2 ♣][___][___][___][___] An eight.

If this is higher, you've pulled off a Round 1 sweep... MATT [8 ♠][6 ♣][Q ♦][2 ♥][9 ♠] IMMANUEL [2 ♣][___][___][___][___] You did it! *'86 CS Win Cue* Talk about snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, and this is just one round! Immanuel, you came within one card of the advantage, but now you need to win this round to stay alive. We'll deal brand new cards in every holder... MATT [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] IMMANUEL [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Round 2 begins with this high-low question. We divided 100 married couples, separating the wives from their husbands. We took the birthdays of the 100 wives, and then we asked the husbands when their wives' birthdays were.
Immanuel, how many married men know their wives' birthdays?

Well…I know for lots of men, remembering their own anniversary can be a pain! But I don’t know, I’ll say…75

Three quarters, or 75 out of 100.
Matt, higher or lower.
