It's time folks! For the 15th episode of Wheel on CBS, I decided to do a Celebrity special...since we haven't had one yet. With this special, one net game host can win over a quarter of a million dollars for their charities! Plus...we have an all-new hour-long tournament-style format that I'm adapting for this episode, along with a new set and wheel layout!
Now...I would need 3 players, but both Bill McDee and David Barkow have expressed interest, so if they still wanna play, that'll leave one more spot open. Of course, to play you must be either an active host on this forum, or have hosted a net game in times past on this forum. Standard rules apply: once I get my 3 players, they'll embark a number-drawing game, I'll finish setting up, and we'll launch the show as soon as possible!
Who wants to spin and win?

I know I played last episode, but since this is a celebrity game, I don't think the standard sit out rule would apply here. So I'm in
You are indeed right! Thanks Mark, the slots are filled; showtime starts as soon as setup's complete!

My charity is Samaritan's Purse which has several ministries such as Operation Christmas Child which sends shoeboxes of Christmas gifts to third world countries.
And also one I have heard of before. Good luck to you David as we try and raise money for them.
Second up is Mark Liotta. He's hosting Gold Rush in Syndication here. Mark, what can you tell us about the new Gold Rush?

Ooh mystery money! Sounds very exciting indeed! Best of luck to you with that show...care to talk about your charity you're playing for tonight?

I know a lot of people with autism, some of which I have in my family, and I'm really glad you're playing for something that'll support them in a big way. Best of luck, Mark.
Finally it's he...Mr. Bill McDee!
*cheers*
Always a pleasure to see you around, sir. You recently launched "Las Vegas Gambit". How different is it from the Gambit we all know from the 70's and 80's?

Well thank you Immanuel, it is a pleasure to be seen.
This new Las Vegas Gambit has eliminated the trivia questions aspect and replaced it with other casino elements.
In addition to the nucleus of the game, which is still Blackjack, we now also have incorporated Roulette and Craps into the mix, and players making predictions on the outcome of dice rolls is what is used now to determine the fate of the next card instead of ringing in with a correct answer to a trivia question.
Additionally, we also incorporated an element from the 1979 Gambit pilot in that play alternates between players until one player freezes.
Another change from the 70s show is the bonus game, the Gambit Board, is now played for cold hard cash.
It's been rather fun so far and we're still tweaking things here and there but it's a great experience as I do love going to the casino myself.
Help control the pet population, have your pet spayed or neutered.
Sounds very fun indeed! Best of luck on that project and here in our game tonight. Can't wait to see more of Las Vegas Gambit. What charity are you representing tonight?

Also I'd like to add that with Father's Day coming up, as well as the 45th anniversary of my Dad's passing next month, Bill McDee Productions raised $150,000 for charity, $50,000 of which is being sent to Deborah.
And before we begin to spin, I'd like at this time to present a check to my other two opponents in the sum of $50,000 each to go toward each of their respective charities as well.

Wow! Very kind indeed, Bill! We haven't even spun and already Mark and David's charities have won $50,000!
*more cheers*
Let's get down to business and see how much more these guys can win. The three of you have 3 chances to make as much money as possible. The player with the most money at the end of the third round will compete in the head to head match with the winner of game 2. The player who wins the entire match will play the bonus round for $500,000 for their charities!
*cheers*
The 2 losers of this first game will play in our first head to head match. Good luck fellas, and without further ado...here's our first puzzle:
*puzzle reveal chimes*
We're looking for a LANDMARK to start things off. As always, just before the show, we drew numbers to see who'll start us off...and David won the draw so he starts. Go ahead, David!

Forgot to mention; the dollar sign wedge is worth $2,500 this round, and doubles the next round. Anyway David, you spun $400
