 A sound strategy I dare say. Not wanting to risk going over, as there are many more cards in the deck now that would harm you rather than help. And also now putting the pressure squarely upon Nels to not only have to earn cards, but earn enough to reach 18 or better.  Nels, the roulette wheel now stays with you. Select any remaining number. Keep in mind that 4 of them will instantly lose for you. Those four are the "CRAPS" come out rolls. What number do you choose Nels? |

16 Red...  2 Black. No money for that spin but the more important thing now is to avoid the come out roll of 2, 3 or 12. Those are Craps and Bryan would win the game instantly. Let's see what the come out roll is behind 16 please...  A six! You are still in the game Nels.  Five different ways out of 36 to roll a six. Six out of 36 ways to roll a 7. Do you predict Alexis will roll a 6 first? If so that's a PASS bet. If you believe she will roll a 7 first, then you'll go with NO PASS. A correct prediction will earn you a card Nels. An incorrect decision, and Bryan takes game #1 and $250. Do you predict PASS or DON'T PASS, Nels? |

Nels is betting a 6 will be rolled before a 7. Alexis, Roll 'em!  Oh no! (buzzer). Nels I'm sorry that stops you right in your tracks. Bryan takes the first game! (win cue)  $250 for you Bryan and the lead in the match. We'll take a quick time out, reset the board, and begin game #2 right after these words! |

(fade into applause)  We are back at last! Bryan's won $350 and one game. Nels has $200 but is trailing in this match. Bryan, this time you will get to spin the slot machine to establish the least amount of money this next game will be worth.  To simulate a spin, please select a number higher than 0 but lower than 7. Please do so three times, once for each reel. You may use the same number twice or all 3 times even if you wish to. |

$75... $100 and...  $150! So to the winner of this game will go $325 UNLESS either of you scores 21 exactly. Then you will instead win... (CLANG) $800. Let's reveal the first card for game 2.  A 7 of Diamonds. And the player who lost game 1 gets to play first here in game 2, that would be you Nels.  All 36 numbers back in play, all 36 possible come out rolls reshuffled and hidden up there. Please select a number Nels. |

9 Red for Nels...  23 Red, so $100 for predicting the correct color! Now let us see what the come out roll is behind #9  A seven! That's an instant winner!  Nels, you now control the fate of that 7. Do you wish to keep it for your own hand, or give it away to Bryan? |

4 Black...  No, 18 red that time, so no money from the wheel. Let's see what the come out roll is behind #4  Oh no! 3 craps! Sorry about that Bryan.  Nels, this means YOU control the fate of the next card. Do you want to keep it or give it away? |

 Nels protecting his position, not wanting to risk going over. Bryan, the onus is on you now. You'll have to score 18 to 21 to win the game and the match. You must earn those cards though same as before.  Bryan, please select another number and you want to avoid another CRAPS come out roll. If you hit one of them, Nels will automatically take the game and tie up this match. |

16 Red...  Sorry, it came up 22 Black that time. No money from the wheel. Now if 16 is hiding a come out roll of 7 or 11, you'll get the next card automatically Bryan. If it says CRAPS, the game will end. Any other roll and you'll have a decision to make. The come out roll is...  A five! You're still alive!  In order to REMAIN alive in this game Bryan, you must correctly predict whether Alexis will roll a 5 first (PASS) or a 7 first (DON'T PASS). There are 4 ways out of 36 to roll a five, 6 ways out of 36 to roll a seven. What do you think Bryan, pass or don't pass? |

 Alexis, Bryan's hoping you'll roll a 7 first, Nels is hoping you'll roll a 5 first. Roll 'em!  Seven! Winner on the Don't Pass! Bryan, you've just earned your first card sir...  It's a Jack, worth ten.  If you win the next card and it is an 8 or better, you'll be heading to the Gambit Board!  Right now however, it's back to the wheel and another number selection please Bryan. |

24 Black...  It came up 26 black! So $100 more for you Bryan. Now the all important pivotal question, what is behind 24?  A 7! A winning come out roll!  You control the next card automatically as a result of that 7 on the come out roll Bryan. If this next card is an 8 or better, you'll take the match. Alexis?  And that's a winner! (win cue & applause)  And another $325 for winning that game Bryan, you have won $775 today thus far and in a few moments, you'll be taking your first trip to the Gambit Board for a chance at thousands, maybe even TENS of thousands more! Nels, your reign as champion was short lived. You did win $300 here today, when added to your previous earnings, you're heading back to Minnesota $12,150 richer! A nice round of applause for our outgoing champion, Nels Snesrud! We'll take a time out here, clear the boards and wheel out the Gambit Board where Bryan will attempt to add big to his $775 in cash. All of that and maybe more, after this time out! |

 We are all set for our Gambit Board bonus game with new champion Bryan Law. Bryan the $775 you won is safely tucked away. Now let's get to the Gambit Board!  You will notice that if you score 21 in any combination during this round, we'll pay you an additional $5,000, and if you get a 2 card 21, also known as a "Blackjack", an additional $10,000 will be your reward. There are other cash awards up on the board. There are also six numbers hiding cards that will be a multiplier, and I will explain those when we get to them. One card is a RANDOM CASH square and that can add anywhere from $1,250 all the way up to $5,000 into your betting bank. There is one Power Chip on the board, and that can be used in one of two different ways, and finally a HALF & HALF card. If you beat the house here at the Gambit board while having the HALF & HALF card in your possession, you will then get to play for a possible $25,000 cash bonus or for a new luxury automobile! However to play this added Half & Half bonus, your hand MUST, I repeat MUST BEAT the house. If the 2 hands are tie at the end of the game, you won't get to play Half & Half. Alexis is now breaking the seal on a brand new deck of 52 cards for you Bryan. I'll ask you to select a number higher than 0 but lower than 52 at this time to cut them. Remember if you score 21 exactly, you will automatically win either $5,000 or $10,000 depending on how fast, plus any money in your betting bank will also be doubled immediately. If you get any score between 12 and 20, you'll have the option to freeze at that point and then you'll have to wager at least half of your betting bank on whether you believe your hand will beat the house's hand. If you go over 21, you will lose EVERYTHING in your betting bank, and the game will be over. If your hands beats the house, or if the house goes over 21, you'll have your wager added, if the house beats your hand, the wager is subtracted. If it's a tie, it will simply be a push. The house will always hit on 16 and below and must stop once it gets to 17 in ANY combination, that includes a "soft" 17 which would be an Ace and a 6 for example. Please cut the cards Bryan. |
