Giving Shederick a 4 to an 8 split. And Kourtney this means your split will be a 4 to a...what?  Oh boy! Not only are the dice being difficult today, so too are the cards! Nary any wiggle room whatsoever for you Kourtney. Making this Hi Lo Toss-Up to control the deciding card of this hand most important.  And Kourtney you get to do the honors this time around. Please select a pair of the remaining boxes and in the order in which you'd like them to be revealed. |

Let’s go with 5 and 10.

 No Joker on that draw, but got yourself a King. You can predict if card 10 is higher or lower, or you could pass and have Shederick try to predict. How do you wish to play it Kourtney? |

I am going to keep and say lower.

 If anything other than that Ace turns up, you'll keep control of the hand Kourtney. And it is a...  Winner! Back now to the cards. Kourtney, are you keeping the next card or passing it down to Shederick? |

Passing please.

Shederick, if this next card is a 4 through an 8, you'll tie up the game at one hand apiece. If not, Kourtney will go up 2 to love and will be one step closer to winning game one and one step closer to a $500 clean sweep bonus. The card Kourtney passed to you is a...  bust! And Kourtney wins his second hand.  Time now for another 7 Split game.  And we always alternate turns with this so since Kourtney played the first one and Shederick played the second one, it's back to Kourtney again. Remember if your first 2 dice selections total 7, it's $50 for you, if you need a third pick to total 7, $25 for you, if your first 2 picks are the 1 and the 6, it will be worth $75 and most importantly, control over the cards. If you fail to come up with a total of 7 after three picks, your opponent wins control over the cards automatically. Kourtney, please select one die from the top row and one from the bottom row. |

 3 and 6, total of 9. Trying for $25 with this next selection. Which letter Kourtney? |

Let’s try C.

And that gets you...  A 1! That totals 7 and you have $25 and control of the hand Kourtney. First card for this hand is...  A King. So this hand will be worth $225, or $450 to you if you win it Kourtney. Where would you like to place that King? |

|
|
Post by pathfinder20 on Nov 5, 2023 14:42:49 GMT -5
I will take the King.

The King is yours. Next card:  A nine. Where would you like that to go Kourtney? |

Post by pathfinder20 on Nov 5, 2023 20:43:57 GMT -5
I am passing it.

And that leaves for both of you as the common card...  A 7. A 7 card split for you Kourtney, leaving just a 3 card split for your opponent. Back to another Hi Lo tossup Kourtney.  Pick a pair of boxes please Kourtney, in the order in which you wold like them to be revealed. If your first pick is the Ace or the 3, you'll keep control of the hand. If either pick is the Joker, it and only it will be revealed and you also will retain control. |

Let’s go with 12 and 4.

Post by billmcdee on Nov 7, 2023 6:09:12 GMT -5
Under 12 we have...  The Ace! You automatically retain control Kourtney!  Important decision here because if you win this hand, not only will you win this first game, but a $500 clean sweep bonus as well. Kourtney, do you wish to keep the next card hoping it will fit your split, or pass it down to Shederick to try to bust his hand again? |

Pass.  |

Channeling the late, great Bob Barker, we have another historic first here on Split Decision. Our first shout out to a higher diety. The card you have been passed Shederick is a...  bust! And Kourtney wins game #1 and a $500 Clean Sweep Jackpot! (win cue)  Shederick, two notes of consolation if I may. First, it's often been said that the Lord answers all prayers, it's just sometimes the answer is "no" or "not yet", and that proved to be the case here. Second, that's only the first game of this match, and as you know, it takes two games to get to the Pot Limit round so you could very well do to Kourtney what he just did to you. And we'll find out if that will indeed be the case, right after these words of interest! |

(fade in to applause)  And we are back at it with game 2 of this match. It was all Kourtney in game 1 but we'll see what transpires here now in game 2. Shederick, we have a new deck of 52 cards that Witney is now breaking the seal on, please select a number higher than 0 but lower than 52 to cut this deck. |

Thank you Shederick.  Now it is your proper turn to try to get a total of 7 and get control over those cards. Shederick, please select one green die and one gold die. |

 Got a 1 and a 4 with those selections Shederick. Please select one more. As Shederick has posted in the vacation thread, and as this is not a "timed" game anymore, we'll resume once he makes his next dice selection. |

And...  No again. Ugh...this experiment is going the way of the last 2 Major League Baseball post-season changes. Kourtney, as such, you are in control of this first hand, and the first card out of the chute this time is...  A Jack, so this first hand will be worth $175. Where would you like to place that card Kourtney? |
|

Post by pathfinder20 on Nov 11, 2023 8:12:50 GMT -5
I will pass the Jack.

A few audience members sound a tad surprised at that move. Let's see the next card though...  A Queen. Where is she going Kourtney? |
