Let's get started...
Jim: It all started with Goodson and Todman, It continues with our contestants who've won a lot, man! On..
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Howdy! Hello, gang! Welcome to Card Sharks! This is the show where a bunch of cash or a car can be yours on the turn of a single card. We've had a lot of luck with that over the past few shows. Maybe we can do it again today, who knows? Let's say hi to four people right now: our models Charlene and Terri, and our two contestants. Come on up!
*Bill and Chris run to their podiums*
Bill McDee is our returning champion. He's been here two games, he's won two cars, and he has total of $77,350!
*cheers and applause*
Any plans for the cars yet, Bill?

Oh yes, one for my Mrs. and one for me.
The 1 and 5 combination won for me yesterday on 5/11 as that was my Mrs. birthdate so that's why I went with the 1 and 5 for my choices, and I lucked out big time!

Hopefully, you'll continue that train of thought with those lucky numbers. Think of more people you can apply them to, and you'll be fine.
Chris Chambers is your opponent. Chris, what do you want America to know about you?

Thank you, it's a pleasure to have you here. You're up against a powerhouse. Maybe you can win a couples of cars like him. First, you must conquer these cards.

We play this game best two out of three. The object is to correctly predict whether the next card will be higher or lower than the one preceding it. To gain control of your cards, you need to win a high-low question. These questions are designed to judge your ability to analyze human nature. Bill, this first one is yours. We surveyed 100 people:
"Would you appreciate it if your next birthday party was a surprise party?"
How many people would like a surprise party on their next birthday, Bill?

A most appropriate question as my wife's birthday was only yesterday.
I know she would NOT want a surprise party, although I think she would appreciate the efforts for it.
I'm thinking 62 out of 100 would appreciate it.

Higher than 62. Actual number of people who would appreciate a surprise party on their next birthday is...
[62][59][HI] *dingdingding* 59, it was just a bit lower than Bill's guess. Age has to be a factor in that kind of enjoyment. BILL
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
CHRIS
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] That means Bill gets to start the calling. BILL
[5 ♦][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
CHRIS
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] You have a five. Play this or change?

Believe it or not, I'm going to change that 5, see if I can't do better.

Not much room for improvement, but you can do that. The five becomes... BILL

CHRIS
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] A three!

CHRIS
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] An Ace. *buzzer* Not lower, you lose two cards for that.
BILL
[3 ♣][___][___][C*S][C*S]
CHRIS
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] And you've given Chris a free shot. Chris, you must call off...

—————|CHRIS
[10♣][9 ♦][C*S][C*S][C*S] You'll have the opportunity to change that middle card down the road. For now, I'd like you and Bill to look at the audience area. We have a special polling group consisting of ten doctors. Please stand up, the ten of you. Chris, before we started taping, we asked these ten doctors a question:
"Does acupuncture work?"
Of the ten doctors, how many said acupuncture works, Chris?

Post by EaglesWings1975a on May 13, 2023 14:48:23 GMT -5
I will say 6 say that it does work

Post by billmcdee on May 13, 2023 16:48:02 GMT -5
Medical doctors are such as their primary source of healing is "medicine".
As acupuncture is not something you can purchase in your local pharmacy over the counter or by prescription, and considering M.D.s I think still are more of the tried and true traditional ways, I'll say lower.

Chris says six out of ten doctors believe that acupuncture works. *ding* Bill says that number is lower. *ding* We'll find out together. Actual number who said that acupuncture works is... *school bell* Six of them! Chris, you got that exactly right! Two good things coming with that. I have ten $100 bills for you, all fresh. Also, all ten people in our special polling group will receive $100 each. Now, the six of you who answered yes, raise your hands. *six doctors raise their hands*
I'll talk to the one who brought a stethoscope to the studio. You have acupuncture done on yourself.
Doctor: Yes, but I don't actually do it.
*laughter*
Me: That would have been my next question.
Doctor: I have it done by a friend. She knows what she's doing.
Me: Puts my mind at east a bit. Thank you, and the rest of your, for your participation. We may hear from you again in Round 2.
BILL
[3 ♣][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]

[10♣][9 ♦][C*S][C*S][C*S] Back to the game. Chris, you still have a nine.
