And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!

We have two contestants ready to play with their decks. Really, their models will do that. Charlene and Terri, come on up so you can deal the cards for today's Card Sharks. I'll tell them to come on up as well!
*Nels and David run to their podiums*

Your odds increase with each win. Maybe you'll get back this time. You'll have to do it against David Barkow. David, could you use a new car?

I had a feeling that both of you could. Let's get one of you there first. Here's how.
NELS [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] DAVID [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
Nels, you control the red cards on top. David, you get the blue cards beneath. Each of you will try to get from one side of your board to the other. You win $500 if you win your first round, $1,000 and a trip to the Money Cards for your second. You win control of the cards through high-low questions. Nels this first one is yours. We surveyed 100 people:
"Do you agree with the rebranding of Twitter to X?"
How many people said yes, Nels?

63 people are fine with X as opposed to Twitter.

David, higher or lower?

Lower says David. *ding* Actual number of people who like the rebranding of Twitter to X is...
[63][28][LO]
*dingdingding* 28 of them, it was lower like David said. Change isn't always necessarily a good thing, even less so with those websites ending in X as well.
NELS [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] DAVID [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] David, you get the calling started. Here's your card:
NELS [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] DAVID [2 ♣][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] A two!

Wish fulfilled.
NELS [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] ——————————|DAVID [2 ♣][5 ♦][10♣][C*S][C*S] Your freeze bar is now two calls away from $500. We'll play another question, one that involves our special polling group. I will ask ten of our audience members to stand up. All ten of these audience members are Girl Scouts. They range in age from 11 to 17 years old. We asked these ten girls this question:
"In 2025, the Boy Scouts of America will change its name to Scouting America. Given the option, would you rather remain in the Girl Scouts or join Scouting America?"
David, how many of the girls would rather remain a Girl Scout?

|
|
Post by gameboy2000 on May 16, 2024 6:05:30 GMT -5
I will say 8.

Lower says Nels. [LO][__][ 8]
*ding* Out of these ten girls, the actual number who would continue their allegiance with the Girl Scouts as opposed to joining Scouting America is... [LO][ 8][ 8]
*school bell* Eight of them! Wow! David, you got that right on the nose. A couple of good things coming with this. David, you win $1,000 for getting that right. Plus, our special polling group will divide $1,000 in cash! *cheers and applause* Show of hands, who were the two that answered no to this question? *two girls raise their hands* I'll talk to the girl in the lower right. What's compelling you to join the former Boy Scouts?
Girl: I want to be an Eagle Scout. I can't do that in the Girl Scouts! *laughter* And girls couldn't do that for the past 100 years. Now they can, and maybe you can as well. Best of luck to you. Girls, please take your seats. We may hear from you again in Round 2. NELS [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] ——————————|DAVID [2 ♣][5 ♦][10♣][C*S][C*S] We go back to the game where David froze on a ten.

NELS [C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S] ——————————|DAVID [2 ♣][5 ♦][A.♦][C*S][C*S] You're gonna still want to call lower, right?
