Welcome to a big 34th game of The Big Risk. Some notes why...
\ Current champ John Coday Hines has won CY$79,299 and three straight games. Should he win tonight's main game, he wins a virtual new car and plays for up to CY$1,000,000 in Go For The Gold.
\ This is Game 34. Unless you played in Game 31, 32 or 33, you're eligible to play.
\ This *likely* will be the last main game of TBR for the year. We usually take a break for the holidays around late November or early December and resume in a new year.
Now time for the qualifying question. The two players closest to the right answer, high or low, play against John. The query...
Time for our version of "The Price *WAS* Right". In the year 2001, if you wanted to stay at Julio Iglesias' home in Acapulco, Mexico, how much money per week would he charge you? Plus respond to the nearest multiple of 1000 U.S. dollars.
(time passes)
To all the girls I've loved -- oh -- hi. Everyone's bids are in. Spending a week in 2001 at Julio Iglesias' home in Acapulco would set you back...

...52-large. Who's the closest?
Andy Silikovitz $52,000
It's Andy. Too bad there's no bonus prize for a perfect bid. You and John play against...
Dom Falance $30,000
...how ironic. Dom was last here in our 30th episode spectacular and bid 30-grand. Dom, I don't know if that was intentional -- but it worked.
One more TBR for the year -- after this.
======================================================================
Scarlett Gray: "The Real Housewives of Rancho Cucamonga" (audience
laughs) will not be seen at this time -- so that we may slowly turn
the cards, step by step, on the following program.
======================================================================
Scarlett: This is our current champion, John Coday Hines. To date, he has won CY$79,299 and three consecutive games.
Scarlett: If he wins tonight's game, he will win a new car and the right to play for up to CY$1,000,000 in our bonus round.
Scarlett: From CDM Enterprises, a division of Trax Productions, welcome to the game where you could win a million -- or lose your shirt. It's time to take -- The Big Risk.

Scarlett: And now, here's the star of our show, Doug Morris!
(Doug walks from behind The Big Risk board)
Doug: Thank you very much. Thanks, Scarlett. Helloooooo, everybody and welcome to a big game of The Big Risk. Scarlett already explained why it's a big game. We know our champion. Let's meet his challengers and commence the proceedings. D.J. Hamilton is standing next to all the players.

D.J.: Thanks, Doug. Hi, ya'll. You've already met our big man on campus, John Coday Hines. Looking to stop his winning ways are Andy Silikovitz and Dom Falance.
Doug: Thank you, Deej. We'll see you later for Dice Risk. Players, good luck to all three of you in an important game. We start on a level playing field. CY$250 to start each of you off.

Doug: And in a moment, each of you get a turn at our True or False board.
|
Doug: Letters in "True" hide different amounts of cyber-money -- from CY$200 to CY$500. Letters in "False" hide the numbers 1 through 5 with no duplicates.
When it's your turn, you'll pick a letter from each word. Those picks determine the value of each question on your turn -- and how many questions you play.
