(fade into cheers & applause)  Hi there! We are still in the early stages of this game between returning champion George and his two challengers Chris and Bryan. Bryan's made one match at the matching board thus far, Chris almost got a match but not quite, so now that we have lathered and rinsed, we will repeat. Chris, you get to select which hidden category we will play this round by selecting 1, 2 or 3 please. |

 The category this time players is United States Landmarks. Did we find the ONE FREE BOX bonus this time?  Negative, but I assure you all it is ALWAYS up there somewhere. Players, I am going to name a famous landmark found right here in these United States, and I need for you to tell me which major U.S. city or which U.S. state in which each one is found, so listen carefully. For $50, our nation was founded by Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and John Hancock just to name a few at Independence Hall. In which U.S. CITY would you find Independence Hall? (ding)  Bryan you are in first this time and have until 4:20pm EST on Monday, August 5th to post your answer. |

O no (buzzer)... No, the Grand Canyon is a fair distance from North Dakota, that is found in Arizona. Bryan remains at $50, George and Chris with duck egg thus far during this question round. Let's try the $100 toss up in U.S. LANDMARKS. Players, in what U.S. CITY would you be if you were visiting the famous Gateway Arch? (ding)  Bryan you are in first once again and have until 8:20am EST on Tuesday, August 6th to post your answer please. |

Good for another $100, up to $150 now. If Bryan gets this next question, he will automatically go to the board as neither of our other two two players would be able to catch up. For $125, which U.S. city is home to the famous Space Needle? (ding)  Bryan you're in first once again and have until 8:50am EST on Tuesday, August 6th to post your answer. |

Well done sir! $275 you have and with the last toss up being only worth $150, neither George nor Chris can catch you so we will head to the big board.  200 points to start off with, and if Bryan should achieve Three on a Match this time, we will then play our BIG MATCH game where all three of our players will try for a $1,000 cash prize. Right now however, to the board we go and Bryan please select a box and good luck. |

30 on the Blue...  (groans) No Match card there. 30 points left and with 30 points, nothing you can do, so the monsters will reshuffle yet again, and this game draaaags on (chuckling)  Let's try this again shall we? Bryan, please select a number, see if you can't get that bonus card in play this time. |
