With such a tight squeeze you have Kourtney, I think I would have played it the very same. To try to go up 2 hands to 0, what is George's card?  OH MY! It's a 4 and a FIT!!!!! (applause) www.dougmorris.net/chain/sfxding.mp3 And just like that George you are on the board, tied at 1 hand each, and $200 for you, yours to keep no matter how you finish in the match! I know that one had to hurt some Kourtney as that 4 WOULD have won for you as well! But that's the fun and fickle nature of this game and the cards!  The 3 hand Blitz is now out of play, and starting with game 2 of this match and from now on, it will always be worth $500! No more progressive jackpot with that. It will be an additional $500 bonus on top of whatever a player wins in that game. Right now let me push my magic button to stop the randomizer to see what the value of the next toss up puzzle and hand will be...  $75 if the first person who rings in gives me the correct answer, and $150 to the winner of this next hand. This time players we are again looking for an 8 letter word. 8 letters remember... And I need the word that will connect the split...  TRICK with MARK tpirepguide.com/qwizx/gssfx/usa/be-buzzer.wav Kourtney, you rang in first this time and have until 6:55am EST on Saturday, July 1st to post your answer. |

Correct! $75 for you and let's see what the first card of this hand is...  A five. Do you wish to keep that card, give it to George, or place it in the center? |

Let’s go with the center and hope for a low card.

Post by billmcdee on Jun 30, 2023 17:26:59 GMT -5
Let us see... Did Kourtney keep a low card for himself?  The LOWEST in fact! 2 to a 10 split for you, not too bad, slightly more narrow split for you George from a 10 down to a 5. Back to a HIGH CARD TOSS UP to determine control of the deck.  Kourtney you get to select 2 more numbers in the order in which you'd like them revealed, in the event you refuse the first card we show. Remember also both Bonus Draw cards are still up for grabs! |

Let’s go with 5 and 10.

Post by billmcdee on Jun 30, 2023 17:52:06 GMT -5
The Woolworth numbers! Five is...  An 8. Kourtney you can see the split, 4 cards will beat that, 5 will lose to it. Do you wish to keep the 8 and have George select a card, or do you want to pass the 8 to George and hope that your other choice will be higher than the 8? |
|
|
|
Post by pathfinder20 on Jun 30, 2023 19:04:54 GMT -5
I will pass the 8.

Post by billmcdee on Jun 30, 2023 19:40:33 GMT -5
The 8 belongs to George. Did your second pick better that 8?  Oh no! Only a 5 there, so George now has control of the cards!  George, six cards will win for you, seven will lose. Only four cards will lose for Kourtney, plus he still has that insurance marker as well. Tough decision. Do you want to keep the next card for yourself or pass? If you elect to pass and the first card does not fit Kourtney's split, he will get a second chance because of his insurance marker. How do you play it George? |

I will interpret that as you wanting to keep the card. Let's see if that was the right decision George... It...  WAS! And it's good you did NOT pass it as that would have fit in Kourtney's hand too. Well played George! www.dougmorris.net/chain/sfxding.mp3 Another $150 goes to you and you now lead 2 hands to 1! One more hand and you'll win game one and play our special Half & Half mini bonus game. Let's establish the value of our next puzzle and the next hand...  $50 for the puzzle, top dollar value of $250 for the hand. George if you win this hand, we will pay double, so this hand will be worth $500 to you if you win it. Next puzzle coming up. I need a THREE letter word, 3 letters, starting with A that connects the split...  VOLCANIC with TRAY... tpirepguide.com/qwizx/gssfx/usa/be-buzzer.wav Kourtney has rung in first, and as this is a holiday weekend in the U S of A, with Independence Day coming up on Tuesday, July 4th, I'm going to relax deadlines until July 5th. Of course if you are able to provide your answers sooner, that would be totally okay too  |

Affirmative! $50 more for you and this first card for your consideration...  A ten. Where is that going Kourtney? |

Post by pathfinder20 on Jul 1, 2023 13:29:14 GMT -5
Give it to George again.

The 10 belongs to George, and next...  (Chuckling) a 2. Didn't we just play this hand? Where's the deuce going Kourtney? |
|

Post by pathfinder20 on Jul 1, 2023 18:24:59 GMT -5
I am going to take the itty bitty deuce for myself.

Very well, and the common card is...  An Insurance Marker! This is a first on our show. Because the common card cannot be an insurance marker, the winner of this hand will win the marker. Now for the common card...  A 6. So we have an even spread, 5 cards will win for Kourtney, 5 will win for George.  Playing for control of the cards again, with another High Card toss up. Both Bonus Picks are still in the mix. Kourtney if you draw a Queen or the 2 first, you'll retain control of the cards automatically. Please select two more numbers. |

Post by pathfinder20 on Jul 1, 2023 18:45:05 GMT -5
Let’s go with 1 and 9.

Post by billmcdee on Jul 1, 2023 18:47:49 GMT -5
Very well. Number 1 is...  A 2! That's an instant winner there...you keep control Kourtney. Are you keeping the next card or passing to try to bust George? |

Post by pathfinder20 on Jul 1, 2023 19:02:16 GMT -5
Let’s pass the card.

Or as viewers say in Texas, "El Paso"... If you bust George on this turn Kourtney, you'll tie up the game at 2 hands each PLUS pick up a SECOND insurance marker as well! The card you passed to George is...  A Jack! That's a bust! www.dougmorris.net/chain/sfxding.mp3 We have the makings of a really good match here today! I love it when a game goes the distance. Final hand, whoever takes this hand will take the game. This next toss up puzzle is worth:  Fifty bucks for a correct answer. The hand value is $225 but of course that's doubled now so $450 to the winner of this final hand. And the puzzle is forthcoming. I need a 4 letter word, four letters, starting with D that connects the split...  Trap with Bell tpirepguide.com/qwizx/gssfx/usa/be-buzzer.wav George is in first. As this is a holiday weekend I'll relax the 48 hour deadline, but if you can answer within that, that would be great also George! |

Post by billmcdee on Jul 2, 2023 7:28:31 GMT -5
That's the one! $50 more for you, up to $400 now and the first card for this all important hand is...  A 4. George do you want to keep that, give it to Kourtney, or place it in the center? |
|
|
|
Post by bighornbattle on Jul 2, 2023 7:39:03 GMT -5
I will keep it.
|
|

Post by billmcdee on Jul 2, 2023 8:14:54 GMT -5
I dare say that's a good move, but we'll soon see. Next card for your consideration...  A 9. Do you want to give that to Kourtney or place it in the center spot George? |
