Well, you can't win 'em all. Hot Column is Column 1, a roll of an 11 will get you the BBQ island and the steaks worth over $12,000. But, of course, you can't roll until you answer a Toss-Up question. Hands on buzzers, good luck to everyone, here we go. A sphere, a cube, or a pyramid. -- The Luxor Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas was built in what unusual shape?(buzzcode from 1-100 and answer via PM, please; you have 24 hours) |

(Board is updated)On the one hand, you've opened up the first two columns. On the other, you've knocked out the 2, 3, 4, and 10 as good rolls. Just know that if you win the game without any prizes in your column, all you'll be getting is $500 in cash. Next question. Yes or no --- According to Miss Manners, is it proper to use gift registries?(buzzcode and answer via PM, please) |

(buzzcode: 43) *Frank buzzes in (27)*Frank? Frank: yesNo! No it is not, believe it or not. According to Miss Manners, gift registries are not proper. It is simply never polite to ask someone to buy you a present. Curses, foiled again. Bob, the bad rolls are 2, 3, 4, and 10. Will you roll or pass? (audience shouts canned suggestions) |

(Bob rolls the dice)[DOUBLES](audience cheers) Well, you rolled a Little Joe from Kokomo. Double 2s. I would give you an Insurance Marker, but you're going to need it right now. Just a warning: if you roll three doubles in a row without clearing a number, you lose the game. So, we'll bring the dice back. Roll them again. (Bob rolls the dice)And that's a 5. Good roll! We'll take out the 5, since there's only one way to do it. (Board is updated)

Good rolls are now 6, 7, 8, and 9. 7 and 8 are especially good since they can clear a column. Next question. When facing Mount Rushmore, which president's head is farthest to your left? George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, or Abraham Lincoln?(buzzcode and answer, please)

Bob, you get the dice. A 7, 8, or 9 will keep you in the game and clear a column. Otherwise, it's Frank's game. Roll.

I'll give you this Insurance Marker, and then take it right back as we bring the dice back on my Junior G-Man Magic Carpet. (the dice come back) Need a 7, 8, or 9. How about a hard 8, double-4? (Bob rolls the dice)(audience cheers) And up pops the devil! A seven! (Board is updated)
