That is CORRECT!!!!  KEVIN, you now have control of the board and since you are four away from the payoff point that means........  Only the first four categories are in play. What is your choice, KEVIN? |

That is RIGHT!!!! (DING DING DING) That sound means that the sprint round is over and as we look at the scores.  KEVIN and RAYMOND are going on to the FINAL SHOWDOWN. Congratulations. BRYAN, man I'm sorry you didn't go on but you do the best you could as well as not leaving us empty handed. You won $175 in our main game and plus you gained twelve points during the SPRINT ROUND and at $25 per point, that's another $300 for a total of $475 and some nice consolation prizes.  A nice round for applause for BRYAN everyone. |

Hello and welcome back to THE BIG SHOWDOWN. We are here with KEVIN and RAYMOND and the winner of this round will be our champion and go onto our GOLDEN DICE bonus round for $25,000 in cash. But before we do that, we must do some accounting. KEVIN, you gained six points during the SPRINT ROUND and, at $25 per point, that's $150 more for a total of $725. RAYMOND, you hit the payoff point once during the SPRINT ROUND so that $100; plus you gained 28 points during the SPRINT ROUND and, at $25 per point, that's $700 more for a total of $800. Here's how the FINAL SHOWDOWN works: The Payoff Point is 7 and we play it the way we have been playing it, but this time, every time a question is asked the categories will change and all twelve categories from all four rounds are to be played. The one who gets seven points wins the game, becomes the champ and will go on to the GOLDEN DICE bonus round for a chance at $25,000 in cash.  (OOHS AND AWWS) Our Final Showdown cash bonus can be anywhere from $500 to $1,000. First off, let's see what our payoff cash bonus will be:  $825....RAYMOND, since you had the highest score after the SPRINT ROUND was over, you get to pick the first category. We have....  WHAT'S MISSING??, THE OLYMPICS and TENNIS. What's your pick? |
