Doug: Shawn now up to CY$6600. Eddie still at CY$5900.
Impressive scores -- but it's time to resolve this game with the catch-up round.
Eddie, since you're trailing, we start with you. In this round, you get one roll of the dice. If you succeed in outscoring Shawn, then Shawn will have a chance to capitalize and take back the lead.
Keep in mind you're not building a pot. The value of your roll is added immediately to your bank.
Also keep in mind there are no free rolls -- so that means if the dice total 7, it's a bust. You won't gain anything with a 7 -- but you won't lose anything either.
Eddie, all things being equal, you need something higher than a 7 to stay in the game. A double could also help -- as we shuffle the double decision board once again.
Doug: Somewhere on the board, there's now a surprise that will double your score. We've also added a bonus roll to at least one of the other amounts.
Eddie, toss the cubes -- and let's see if you can stay in the game.
Eddie: (claps dice together) Work with me, dice.

Doug: Great roll. A 6 and a 4 add CY$1000 to your bank.

Doug: Shawn, snake eyes *could* win it for you if the double 1 screen hides something better than CY$200. If you roll a 3, we'll go to a tie-breaker question. A 7 will add nothing, make Eddie the champ and knock you out of the competition. Anything else -- and you go to the Bonus Bonanza.
Shawn: C'mon dice -- stay hot for me!!!
|
Doug: Oh no. A 4 and 3 mean we add nothing. Eddie wins it.

Doug: Both of you have played real well. Unfortunately, Shawn, we have to say goodbye. But we send you home with a rather nice piece of change. We add the 6600 to your earlier winnings for a grand total of...

Doug: ...CY$16,550. (audience cheers) Congratulations -- our best to you and the loved ones you treasure -- and thanks for playing Hot Dice. Shawn Wells, everyone.
Doug: Eddie, you now have two straight wins and CY$41,250. Chance to add 50-grand or more -- when we come back.
