Take or pass?
Jay: I'll take the mystery card please
Well, since you said "please", show it, Deej...
Eight of diamonds.

Howe was #2 and Orr #3...but Wayne was at the top, eh?
Take or pass?
Chico: Well, the good news is that one of the 8s is out of play, but still, a 13 is dangerous stuff, so let's pass.
I dunno...we've yet to see an Ace, either. Deej, what is Chico giving to Jay?
Six of hearts.
Bad news: that coulda given you 19, Chico. GOOD news:

Take or pass, Jay?
Jay: Um...Y'know I think I gotta pass. Too many cards that'll bust me out.
True dat. A 9 or any 10 and you go up 2-to-1. An 8...and CHICO goes up AND gets the Jackpot. Deej?
Four of diamonds.
Ooooooooooo...
...Chico has 17. How about it, Chico?
Chico: 17's a 17... I've gotta freeze it.
OK, Jay, this question will define the game:

Jay: WW3 got its kicks in '66

Oh, the mushrooms were sprouting in England that lovely day.
TAll right. A 4, 5 or 6 win put you in the lead. A 7 will win the game. Anything higher and Chico wins...anything lower and we continue. Show the card, D. J.:
SEVEN OF DIAMONDS!
TWENTY-ONE!!!
(DINGDINGDINGDING sfx; applause)
I dare say you lucked out there, Jay. You won Game 3, you earned a bonus of CY$7500 and you're now one game away from moving on to the Netgame Marathon Championship. Chico, you have a chance to send it to a Game 5 when we return after this.
