HIGH ROLLERS [SYN]: Episode 4

[palmer7]

OK, let's set up for game #2. Now, we've given away cars before, but we haven't given away a boat yet. Until now. (I put on a captain's hat) Shadoe, what are we playing?


("The Sailor's Hornpipe")

Shadoe: (VO) Well, Greg, it's the High Seas minigame, where you'll win a boat! And not just any boat, it's a yacht! This gives Column 2 a potential value of.... hold on to your shirts... $485,508!

Greg: When we call this show High Rollers, we're not kidding. Now, in Column #3, we'll need to add a prize that's far more conservative. Any ideas?

(prize cue)

Shadoe: (VO) Oh, I've got one. It's a chance to make a little money on the side, too. You can start your own business with this hot dog cart! The 250 Series Classic Coney Island Wooden Wheel Hot Dog Cart, brings the “good old times” nostalgic look to a fully modern Stainless Steel Hot Dog Cart. Perfect for the boardwalk, vacation areas, fairgrounds, historic downtown settings or as the center piece of a party. It features professional grade stainless steel and a hand-welded body that will keep on serving up the good times for years! Furnished by 800buycart.com, a division of Workman Cycles. It's priced at $8,085; but we're adding enough startup cash to make this prize worth $10,000. That gives Column 3 a value of $30,444; giving the entire board a potential value of $554,937!

A bagel, even with a hole in the middle, is equal to how many slices of bread? 2, 3, or 4?

(buzzcode and answer, please)

*Bob buzzes in (44)*
Bob?
Bob: 4
That's right, four pieces of bread. I didn't believe it, myself. It seems so small, but a bagel is equal to four pieces of bread. And when you add the cream cheese, that's even more calories.

Bob, all rolls are good, so roll.

(Bob rolls the dice)

Six.

Welcome back. As you can see from the board, there's over $69,000 in cash and prizes waiting to be won if somebody rolls a 9 and an 11 and wins the game. Nobody has an Insurance Marker, so a double-2 would help someone immensely. Back to the questions.
