Let's do this thang...
Jim Thornton: In Hawaii, they dance the hula, You will, too, when you win the moolah on...
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Hiya! Welcome to Card Sharks! Another game where we put a cash and a car up for grabs is about to start. So glad you could join us. I know some of you out there are here for our models. Charlene and Terri, come on out and set up the cards. They'll be doing so for today's Card Sharks. Come on up!
*Immanuel and Mike run to their podiums*
Immanuel Tims, we welcome you back. You had the best bonus round one-two punch we've seen in a while. $20,000 in the Money Cards and a new car to boot: $48,985 cash and prizes!
*cheers and applause*
How does it all feel?

Ow! You might have a better chance of hitting that high note than me! Let's also say hello to Mike Foy. Mike, how've you been doing?

Okay, it must get busy for you. Keep your nose in those books. Hopefully we can alleviate some potential debt today. IMMANUEL

MIKE
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] Immanuel plays the red deck on top, Mike the blue on the bottom. Each of will try to get from one side of the board to the other by telling me whether you think the next card will be higher or lower than the one preceding it. We play three rounds, and the winner of the game plays the Money Cards at the end of the show. You get control of the cards by answering a high-low question. For this first one, we asked 100 people...
"If your job offered you a doubled salary at the expense of relocating, would you agree to it?"
How many people said yes, Immanuel?

It all depends: do they want them to move closer or farther?
I'd say at the rate the economy's going, more people would be willing to do it...so I'll say 72

72 people would accept a doubled salary if it meant relocating. [72][__][__] Mike, tell me whether you think the actual number is higher or lower. |

We'll lock that in for you. [72][__][LO] *ding* Actual number of people who would accept a doubled salary at the expense of relocating is... [72][34][LO]
*dingdingding* 34 of them! Mike was right, it was considerably lower. In this economy, some would accept the sacrifice. To others, there's no place like home. IMMANUEL

MIKE
[K ♣][___][C*S][C*S][C*S]At this point, I'm going to introduce today's special polling group. I'll call on ten people in the audience to stand up and make themselves known. Mike, all ten of these people are bartenders. Just before the show, we asked them this question: "Are you a teetotaler?" Mike, how many bartenders said that they are?

Post by thunderwheeler501 on Mar 1, 2023 15:21:08 GMT -5
There aren't many teetotalers that I can think of who are also bartenders.
I think the total's gonna be relatively low. I'll say....about 25.
