A lovely hammock!

From Outback Chair Company, the Urban Balance all-weather wicker hammock is 6 feet 7 inches long and features an epoxy-coated aluminum frame, a 300-pound weight capacity, and comes included with hanging hardware!

Right up here beside me, kassilynn.  How are you doing?  As the first on-stage contestant of our show, I want to make your experience worthwhile by having you win this!

(door #2 opens)



A new car!

(wild cheers and applause)(Concentration '73)(Holly models it)

The 2012 Chrysler 200 LX!  Stylish and comfortable, this four-door sedan comes with standard features plus UConnect infotainment system and engine block heater, the Chrysler 200!



kassilynn, you're going to play the Card Game.  I want you to pick out a card from this special deck; this will determine how close you must come to the actual retail price of the car without going over.  We have amounts as little as $1,000 and as big as $3,000, in $500 increments.  The bigger amount you draw, the better!

(Please pick a number from 1 to 10)

[kassilynn]

Okay, uh, 8.

[goldroadfanatic]

She has drawn…



Twenty-five hundred dollars!  That's very good; you need to bid within $2,500 of the car's price in order to win.  Now you're going to bid with this standard deck of 52 cards.  The number on the card is worth an amount in hundreds of dollars-twos are worth $200, threes are worth $300, and so on.  Tens and face cards are worth $1,000 each, and aces are wild-you can make them any amount you wish, save them for later, or make a final bid with them.  I'll start you off with a bid of $15,000.



DING

I want you to draw cards until you think you're within $2,500 of the actual price of the car without going over.  Good luck!

(First, post a number from 0 to 52 to indicate where you'd like to cut the deck, 0 means no cut.  Then, pick numbers from 1 to 52 to determine the card you want to draw; once you choose a number that card is removed from the deck.)

[kassilynn]

She has drawn…

    I'm a HE ! 

(cut the deck) 26 (because my 26th Birthday is next month !)
(drawing) 15 *fingers crossed*

[goldroadfanatic]

My sincerest apologies, kassilynn.  I won't repeat my mistake in the future.

Anyway, he has drawn…



A black jack, for a bid of $16,000.
