Bill McDee's Three On A Match - Episode 4

[bighornbattle]

Alfred.

[billmcdee]

Right for $150!





So all three players have money and we have one last question worth $200.




Whoever gets this question right will go to the matching board.







Batman has had a plethora of arch enemies but one of his oldest and long-time foes was an umbrella toting, monocle wearing character who was portrayed by such notable actors as Burgess Meredith and Danny DeVito.


Name this villain.



(ding)







George you are in first again and have until 6:50am EST on Sunday, August 18th to post your answer.

[bighornbattle]

The Penguin.

[billmcdee]

That's the villain and with $350 George, you're going back to the matching board once again.






And if you should manage to achieve Three on a Match this time George, you'll win your second championship and move on to the Bonus Bucks end game for a chance at up to $25,000 more.

200 points to spend, try to avoid that NO MATCH card, and please select your first box.

[bighornbattle]

20 on the red.

[billmcdee]

Got yourself a bulldog there and 180 to spend.  Next box is?

[bighornbattle]

30 on the green.

[billmcdee]

30 on the Green...





























Well now, 150 to spend George and should your next pick be that third bulldog, not only will you win this game, but also the $950 Jackpot.

Where to?

[bighornbattle]

40 on the yellow.

[billmcdee]

For the win........































(groans)


No, 110 points to go George, where to now?

[bighornbattle]

40 red.

[billmcdee]

40 on the Red for the win...



































(Gasps)  Ut oh.  George you still have 70 points, you can take one more box in the 40 point column, there might be a bulldog up there yet, but maybe not by virtue of that No Match card.

How do you want to play it?

[bighornbattle]

40 on the blue

[billmcdee]

Swinging for the fences here.


















40 on the Blue for your second championship George...






















You got it!  (applause)


If the Jackpot card is attached to 40 on the Blue, you'll win $950 more, if not, you'll win the value attached to that box, but either way George, in a few moments you'll be playing the Bonus Bucks board for up to $25,000 in cash.



How much did George add to his winnings?






Another $300 for that, and with that, the Jackpot will grow to $1,000 and will keep growing by 50 bucks every time a player gets Three on a Match and doesn't win that jackpot.







George you were the first to three matches once again but as I mentioned at the beginning of the show Chris and Bryan, you'll be back to play a new game as we amended the rules a bit in the middle of this game, so in the interest of fairness, you'll be playing in the very next game.


But first, George will try to win the really big money, BONUS BUCKS when we return!

[EaglesWings1975a]

Good game all.. Good luck with the BONUS BUCKS George.

[bighornbattle]

Thanks Chris.

[billmcdee]

(Cheering & applause)


We have returned with our two time champion George Cluster who has won $16,125 in cash and now has a chance to add anywhere from $5,000 to as much as possibly $25,000 more to that growing total.

Up on the board this time in the 20 point column we have hidden a clover, a horseshoe and a lucky 7, and we have done likewise with the 30 and 40 point columns as well.

In order to win the big money George, all you must do is match three like lucky symbols within 7 total picks from the board.  If you do so, you will win the money card attached to your winning pick.

Should you achieve Three on a Match in just your first three selections however, we will double the dollar value attached to the winning pick.  One such card is $12,500 and of course double that is $25,000!

There is however also hidden in each column a STRIKE card.  Those are ones you want to try to avoid if at all possible because if you match three strikes first, you're out and the Bonus Bucks game is done and you'll win $0.

Also if you do select a strike, your next pick must come from another column where no strike card has yet been revealed.

And as always, you may reveal a maximum of three boxes per column.

George, if you have any questions please feel free to ask them now, if not, my question to you is which box do you want to reveal first?

[bighornbattle]

20 on the red.

[billmcdee]

Got yourself a lucky 7 there.  Where to next?

[bighornbattle]

30 green.

[billmcdee]

Got a 4 leaf clover there, 5 picks to go George, where to?

[bighornbattle]

30 yellow.

[billmcdee]

Uh oh, strike 1 there George.  Your next pick must be from the 20 or 40 point column, 4 picks left, where to?

[bighornbattle]

40 on the blue.

[billmcdee]

Horseshoe there, got one of each working for you now George, three picks left and you can go anywhere on the board you wish to.

[bighornbattle]

30 on the red.

[billmcdee]

Very smart play.







Two horse shoes working for you George, 2 picks remaining 30 point column is now closed, where to now?

[bighornbattle]

20 on the blue.

[billmcdee]

For a three horse shoe bonus win?







































No, got a second clover there George and one last pick.  You can try the 20 column for the horseshoe, a 50 50 chance, or try the 40 column for the third shamrock which is just a 1 in 3 chance.


Last pick, how do you play it champ?

[bighornbattle]

20 on the green.
