Then let's play.
Jim Thornton: Hearts and diamonds are red, clubs and spades are black, Call 'em right and you could lots of money in your sack on...
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Thank you, Jim! Hello, everybody! We're ready to play some more Card Sharks! We had an exciting game on our last show. It went back and forth, and it ended with a new champion. We'll meet him and his newcomer right about now. Come on up!
*Raymond David to their podiums*
Raymond Weaver is back; his one-day cash total is $3,500.
*cheers and applause*
How'd it feel winning yesterday?

It felt awesome and I’m hoping to repeat.

You’re hoping to. I know you’d like to improve after what happened in the Money Cards. There is someone who doesn’t want to see it happen. That’s David Barkow. David, tell us about yourself, please.

Thank you for that. I bet you and Raymond are ready to play, so we'll get right to it.

DAVID
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Each of you will try to get across the board by predicting whether you think the next card is higher or lower than the one preceding it. We play best of three with the winner going to the Money Cards at the end of the show. You get control of the cards by answering high-low questions. First one, which we asked to 100 people, goes to Raymond: "Do you start listening to Christmas music before Thanksgiving?" How many people said yes to this, Raymond? |

I personally wait to listen to Christmas music until the weekend of thanksgiving, so I think that’s gonna be a low number and say 27.

What do you think, David? Higher or lower than 27?

Higher than 27. Actual number of people who listen to Christmas music before Thanksgiving is... *dingdingding* 38 of them. It was just a little bit higher. You have to wonder if they put their decorations up early, too. I've seen trees come up before Thanksgiving. RAYMOND

[4 ♥][Q ♦][A.♣][C*S][C*S] It's an Ace. *buzzer* Not lower, so we send you back to your four. RAYMOND

DAVID
[4 ♥][___][___][C*S][C*S] No one makes progress, so we'll go to our second high-low question. David, we asked 100 third graders:
"Where does SpongeBob SquarePants work?"
How many third graders correctly told us that SpongeBob works at the Krusty Krab?

75 third graders knew that the Krusty Krab is SpongeBob’s employer. *ding*
Higher or lower, Raymond?

Little lower... *ding* Actual number of third graders who knew that SpongeBob works at the Krusty Krab is...
*dingdingding* 69 of them! Raymond was right on the money. You knew those kids, and they knew their cartoons. RAYMOND
[9 ♥][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]

[4 ♥][C*S][C*S]][C*S][C*S] Raymond, you have nine which you could keep or perhaps change.

Just letting you know I posted the wrong card. You actually have a Queen. Did you still want to call lower? |

One step ahead of you.

[Q ♦][8 ♣][C*S][C*S][C*S]
DAVID
[4 ♥][C*S][C*S]][C*S][C*S] That eight forces Raymond to claim a one-card advantage. We have another high-low question, and it involves 100 widows. Here's what we asked them:
"Do you think you will ever remarry?"
How many widows said yes, Raymond?
