It's finally legal in my original home state of New Jersey! WEED is right! Now let's see how the strategy unfolds with this next set of cards. First card for your consideration this time Kevin will be...  A Queen. Kevin are you keeping it, placing her in the center of the board, or giving it to Immanuel? |

Put it in the middle.

Okay, changing up the strategy there a bit... Next card...  A King. Where is he going Kevin? |

To Immanuel.

I know I know...but the rules state I'm required to ask, even if the answer is obvious! And the card that you will get Kevin is...  On a three! Another nice wide split for you while Immanuel has barely any wiggle room whatsoever!  Back to another high card toss up. Kevin you get the choice and again the right of first refusal if the card we uncover is not to your liking. Select a box please. |

And that is a  Six. As you can see by the board, 7 cards will beat it, 3 will lose to it. Are you keeping the 6 or do you want to refuse it and give it to Immanuel? Kevin, if you pass the 6 to Immanuel, please also select another box. |

 The 6 is Immanuel's, and Kevin, which box is yours? |

And will that beat a 6?  Indeed it did! Kevin you managed to keep control of the cards here. If you keep the next card, an Ace, a deuce or a King would lose for you, anything from a Queen down to a 3 will win. Or you can give away the card to Immanuel, and it would have to be either another Queen or another King for him to win the hand. What's your decision Kevin, do you keep the next card or pass it? |

Trying to bust Immanuel here. If you do so, you'll be up 2 hands to 0, and still in the running for that $400 Blitz Jackpot. And the card that Immanuel is being forced to take is...  OH MY WORD! ANOTHER ACE?!?!? WOW! Kevin, good thing you passed, otherwise you would have busted yourself on that! $150 more to you sir!  Up 2 hands to none, but as we already know, no lead is safe in this game! Onto hand #3, a very pivotal one for both players...as are all of them of course! Next toss up puzzle please... Looking for a word starting with an S that will link up the split words...  CHURCH and MEDIA  Immanuel is finally back in first. Immanuel you have until 9:10pm EST on Monday, February 20th to post your answer. |

Well that's not what we were going for however, our lightning fast crack research staff just discovered that there IS such a thing called "Service Media" and certainly Church Service would qualify as well, so we'll accept that as correct! (applause) The answer I had on my card was SOCIAL, as in a Church Social where parishioners gather after a church service, and of course we all know about SOCIAL Media... We learn something new here once in a while! Immanuel here's the first card for this hand...  A three. Are you keeping it, passing it down to Kevin, or placing it in the center as the common card? |

You're a poet and now you know it. The three belongs to thee, and Witney, the next card please...  It's a King. Immanuel is he going in the center or are you going to give that card to Kevin? |

Post by babytims on Feb 19, 2023 10:51:30 GMT -5
I’ll put it in the center

You better believe it! And this means Kevin, this card is yours, Witney?  An 8, meaning six cards will fit Kevin's split while Immanuel has eleven cards that will fit his! Time for our next HIGH CARD Toss Up  Immanuel please select either top, middle or bottom, followed by a suit, or you can select the Joker of course. And if the card you draw now is either an Ace or a Deuce, you'll automatically retain control of the Split Decision deck. |

It is...  the 8. If you elect to keep it Immanuel, Kevin's odds of bettering that will be 5 to 3. Do you wish to keep it and hope he selects one of the 3 lower remaining cards, or do you wish to pass it to him with the hope that your next selection will top that 8? Also, if you do pass the 8 Immanuel, please tell me which of the remaining boxes you would like to keep for yourself. Lots of split decisions with our game as you can see! |

Top Heart, trying to top an 8...  OH NO!!!!!! Only a 3! And Kevin, you have taken over control of the deck!  Kevin, your split is from a King down to an 8, Immanuel's is wider, from a 3 up to a King. Important decision. Do you want to keep the next card for yourself and hope it fits your split, or do you pass it to Immanuel knowing that only an Ace or a Deuce would bust him? |
