00:12And now, the host of Card Sharks, Bill Rafferty!
00:17Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
00:20Well, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
00:24What a nice group. Thank you, everybody. Welcome.
00:26Welcome, everybody, to Card Sharks,
00:28where you can win a fortune on the turn of a single card.
00:31And to guarantee that our players get a fair deal,
00:34let's meet our lovely dealers. Here they come.
00:36That's Lacey Pemberton and Susanna Williams.
00:38Hi. Yes.
00:40Oh, how are you? Nice to see you.
00:42Oh, I'm so nice. Thank you, thank you.
00:44Oh, you're great. Wonderful for our first two.
00:46Yeah, this is the first show of our new season,
00:48and I'm excited, but I'm a little bit nervous.
00:51A little nervous? Okay, so are we.
00:53I think I'm gonna get through it a little bit.
00:55We'll do it together.
00:56Will you do it together?
00:57That's right. Okay.
00:58Deal out those cards, ladies.
00:59Okay, we're ready. Great.
01:00Here we are right now.
01:01Susanna's gonna be dealing out the red cards on the top,
01:04and Lacey will be dealing out the blue cards on the bottom.
01:07No need to wait any longer.
01:08Let's meet today's Card Sharks.
01:15Hello, Mel.
01:16Hi. How are you doing?
01:17Hello, Tina. Hi.
01:18Mel, you won the toss of the coin backstage,
01:21and you're gonna be playing from our championship position.
01:24Tell us a little bit about yourself, sir.
01:26Hi. My name's Mel Davis.
01:27I'm a flight attendant for a major airline.
01:29I'm from Detroit, and I'm ready to play Card Sharks.
01:31Good. That's why you're here. Good for you.
01:33Hello, Tina.
01:34Hi. I'm Tina Lafon.
01:35I'm a junior at California State University, Fullerton,
01:38and I also manage a sun tanning center.
01:40Uh-huh. What do you major in, Tina?
01:42I'm majoring in education.
01:43Majoring in education.
01:44Good for you.
01:45Have you both cut your cards backstage?
01:46Sure did.
01:47Sure did.
01:48We're ready to play. I want to wish you good luck.
01:49Let me quickly tell the folks at home how our game is played.
01:52The object of the game is to work your way across this board
01:56by predicting whether each of these cards will be higher or lower
01:59than the card that precedes it.
02:01However, before you can start calling the cards,
02:03you must answer one of our high-low questions,
02:06and the first question is gonna go to Mel.
02:08Mel, we surveyed 100 garbage men, and we asked them,
02:14have you ever given a girl a present that you found in someone's trash?
02:23How many garbage men admitted that they have?
02:26Okay.
02:27I, you know, I can't imagine a garbage man, uh,
02:31picking up trash and giving, uh, giving it as a gift.
02:35I just find that hard to believe.
02:36Although I realize there are some weirdos out there.
02:39I think that's gonna be a fairly low number, Bill.
02:42I, I, I would think 10.
02:4410.
02:4510 out of that is low. That is a low number.
02:46What do you say, Tina?
02:47Oh, I think that's even gonna be lower,
02:49because I don't know how they would do it.
02:50They get in the garbage thing, and then it goes up on top.
02:52I don't know how they would dig it out.
02:54It's gotta be lower than that.
02:56You're going lower than 10, but just for your information at home,
02:58if you are dating a garbage man and you're getting a gift
03:00that, uh, smells a little funny,
03:02it's the thought that counts, all right?
03:04Anyway, the actual number of garbage men who have given a girl a present
03:08they found in someone's trash is...
03:1030.
03:11It's lower.
03:12Oh!
03:13It's higher.
03:14Oh, God.
03:16Five.
03:17So, that means that, Mel, you've got the high-low question right.
03:20That means you're gonna look at this base, Claude,
03:22and because you've got that question right, you can change it.
03:24If you wish, let's take a look at it right now.
03:26It's a seven.
03:27I would like to change that.
03:29Yeah, I don't blame you.
03:30Get rid of it.
03:31Susanna gives it to me.
03:32That seven now becomes...
03:33a two.
03:34All right!
03:35All right!
03:36It's gonna be higher.
03:37Higher than a two.
03:38A seven.
03:43Higher. Go on, higher.
03:45He's going.
03:46He's going.
03:47He's going.
03:48He's going higher than a seven.
03:49A king.
03:50All right!
03:51Bring it down.
03:52One and a king.
03:53A six.
03:55A six.
03:56Okay.
03:57Freeze.
03:58He's gonna freeze.
03:59Whoa.
04:01Chicken.
04:02I thought you were gonna freeze at the seven.
04:04Mel is freezing.
04:05He's gonna protect his position, and he keeps Tina away from the cards,
04:08and he realizes that if he gets the next high-low question correct,
04:11he goes back to the board and changes that six.
04:13Let's go over here to Tina.
04:14Here's question number two for you, Tina.
04:16Okay.
04:17We surveyed 100 single women, and we asked them,
04:20have you ever lied to a man when he asked you how many men there were before him?
04:27Yes.
04:28Definitely.
04:29How many single women admitted they have lied to a man about how many men there were before him?
04:35Lots of women.
04:36I think that they like to make guys just a little bit jealous, and doing that,
04:41that'll get their ego right away.
04:43I think that's about 72 at least.
04:4572?
04:4672.
04:47That's a high number.
04:48That is a high number.
04:50What do you say, Mel?
04:51High or lower?
04:53Well, I know that there are a lot of women out there that might be tempted to do that,
04:59but whether they would actually tell the truth about it is the bottom line.
05:02I think it's going to be a lower number.
05:03You're saying it's a lower number?
05:04I think it's a lower number.
05:05You're a single guy.
05:06I'm a single guy.
05:07You think you've been told any stories?
05:09Yeah, a couple.
05:11All right.
05:12The actual number of single women who have lied to a man about how many men there were before
05:17is 27.
05:19It is lower.
05:20It is lower.
05:21So, Mel goes to the cards over here.
05:23He is playing off the six.
05:24Change that card.
05:25You're out of there.
05:26That's six.
05:27That six now becomes eights.
05:29We've got an eight.
05:30Playing off the eight.
05:35Okay.
05:36All right.
05:37Okay.
05:38Higher.
05:39Bring it higher.
05:40He's going higher than the eight.
05:41If he is right, he will win game number one.
05:43Higher than an eight.
05:44It is higher than an eight.
05:47Wonderful.
05:49Terrific.
05:50Terrific.
05:51Terrific.
05:52That was good.
05:53You've won game number one.
05:55You've got $100.
05:56And we'll be back with game number two right after this commercial message.
05:59Whoa.
06:10Welcome back to Card Sharks.
06:11Susanna is dealing out the cards for the second game right now.
06:14We're getting to go to game two at this very moment.
06:17Mel has already have one game ahead of Tina.
06:19He's got $100 in his pocket.
06:21The first contestant to win two games.
06:22They win the match.
06:23They go on to play the money cards.
06:24And if you think this has been exciting, wait till we get to the money cards.
06:28However, first things first.
06:29Game number two.
06:30Question number one.
06:31Back to Mel.
06:32We surveyed 100 people and we asked them, should professional athletes be required to
06:39take tests that test for illegal drugs?
06:42How many people said athletes should be required to take drug tests?
06:47Sign of the 80s in this question.
06:48What do you think, Mel?
06:49Absolutely.
06:50Yeah, I agree.
06:51That is a sign of the 80s.
06:52Things being as they are.
06:53I am not an athlete and I'm not in the drugs.
06:59I would think that it's going to be a very high number of people that would...
07:04How many people said that athletes should be required to take drug tests?
07:08Okay.
07:09I would say about 80 people said that.
07:1080 people out of 100.
07:11Tina, how about you?
07:12High or lower?
07:13That's a really good number, but I think that it's going to be...
07:18Well, it depends on if they pulled the athletes or not because the athletes are really resistant.
07:24How many people said athletes should be required to take drug tests?
07:28I think it's just a little bit higher.
07:30We're going higher than 80.
07:31A little bit higher.
07:32Higher than 80.
07:33Who knows?
07:35That's a good answer.
07:36The actual number of people who said athletes should be required to take drug tests is...
07:4182.
07:42It is a little bit higher.
07:44Good question.
07:45Good answer.
07:46Good answer.
07:47All right, Tina, you've got the high-low question correct.
07:49Okay.
07:50Here's your base card.
07:51You can change it if you want.
07:52Let's take a look at it right now.
07:53It is a four.
07:54No, I want to go higher than that four.
07:56Higher than a four.
07:57A five.
07:58Higher.
07:59Go all the way higher.
08:00Higher than a five.
08:01A nine.
08:02I think I'm going to freeze there.
08:04She's going to freeze.
08:05She's going to freeze and protect her position.
08:07A little conservative here, keeping Mel away from the cards.
08:11She realizes she's getting this next question.
08:13If she gets it right, she can change that nine, and Tina needs this game to stay in.
08:16Tina, we surveyed 100 bachelors, and we asked them, would you marry a woman who told you
08:23that she never wanted to have children?
08:26How many bachelors said they would marry a woman who never wanted to have children?
08:31Well, this is the 80s, and a lot of women are planning on having careers instead of children and choosing that.
08:37And I think a lot of men are a little bit on the selfish side, and they want their money to themselves and not spend it on the kids.
08:43So I think that's going to be, oh, just about 43.
08:4743.
08:48You're saying 43 out of 100.
08:4943 out of 100.
08:5043 out of 100.
08:51Yeah.
08:52Mel, high or lower?
08:53What do you say here?
08:54I think it's going to be higher, Bill.
08:55I think that they're going to be, it's going to be a higher number.
08:58You're going to say it's higher than 43.
09:00The actual number of bachelors who would marry a woman who never wanted to have children is 30.
09:07It is not higher.
09:08It is lower.
09:09It is lower.
09:10So Tina's strategy pays off.
09:12She's working off the nine.
09:13I want to change it.
09:14You can change it.
09:15She wants to change the nine.
09:16The nine now becomes a three.
09:18Excellent.
09:19Higher.
09:20Higher than a three.
09:21Definitely.
09:22A king.
09:23Lower, lower, lower, lower.
09:24Lower than a king.
09:25It's for the game and the tie.
09:27All the way.
09:28A six.
09:29Yeah.
09:30Yeah.
09:31Wonderful.
09:32I love you.
09:33There you go.
09:35Tina's got $100.
09:36She's just tied it up.
09:38And when we come back after this message from your folks at home, we're going to be playing
09:42the tiebreaker.
09:52There they are.
09:53We're back.
09:54Wasn't too bad, was it?
09:55We are in the mix.
09:56We're going to a tiebreaker right now because Tina has just tied the match up.
09:59She has $100 in her pocket.
10:01And Suzanne is dealing out the cards right now for the tiebreaker.
10:04We played the tiebreaker with three cards and a maximum of three questions.
10:08And the first question in the tiebreaker goes to Mel.
10:10You ready, Mel?
10:11Okay.
10:12Yes, I am.
10:13There are 100 people who have been fired from a job and we ask them, did you deserve to
10:18be fired?
10:19How many people admitted they deserved it?
10:22Well...
10:23Have you ever been fired, Mel?
10:24I've never been...
10:25Well, yeah.
10:26Once a long, long time ago.
10:27And I don't think I deserved it then either.
10:28But I'm going to say that that's going to be a relatively low number.
10:41I don't think that that many people really feel that they deserve to be fired.
10:45I think that's probably going to be around 18.
10:4818.
10:4918.
10:50That is low.
10:51That is low.
10:52How about you, Tina?
10:53High or lower?
10:54I think that it's just a little bit higher because some people do think that there's
10:56extenuating circumstances where they might have deserved it and they might admit it.
11:01So it's just a little higher.
11:02All right.
11:03A little higher.
11:04The actual number of people who said they deserve to be fired from the job is 22.
11:08It is higher.
11:09All right.
11:10It is higher.
11:11Okay.
11:12So, Tina gets the shot at the board first.
11:13Here we go.
11:14We take a look at the base card.
11:15Change it if you wish.
11:16A queen.
11:17We go lower.
11:18Lower than a queen.
11:19Lower.
11:20A three.
11:21Higher.
11:22Higher.
11:23Higher.
11:24For the game and the match.
11:25A jump.
11:26Wow.
11:27Terrific.
11:29Terrific.
11:30Congratulations.
11:31That was wonderful.
11:33Congratulations.
11:34Wow, Mel.
11:36Mel, you were there to the end.
11:38It was fun.
11:39You were an excellent contestant.
11:40Thank you very much.
11:41We had a lot of fun having you here on Card Chalks.
11:43We've got some lovely parting gifts for you backstage.
11:45And thank you so much for being here.
11:46My pleasure.
11:47Take care, Mel.
11:48Bye-bye.
11:49Goodbye, Mel.
11:50Come on over here, Tina.
11:52Look at she.
11:53Right there.
11:54There's the money.
11:55Give her a round of applause.
11:56This lady played it out.
11:58Played it out.
11:59Wonderful.
12:00Okay.
12:01What do you think going into the tiebreaker?
12:02Do you think you have a chance?
12:04Of course.
12:05You always have a chance.
12:06I like that.
12:07I like that attitude.
12:08We're going to be playing the money cards right now from a new deck of cards that Lacey and Susanna will be dealing out.
12:14And what we're going to do right now is tell you how to play the money cards.
12:17The $200 you've already won is yours to keep.
12:19We're going to start you out with some new money to bet with.
12:22We'll start you out on the bottom line with $200.
12:24You may bet your way across the board by calling high and low.
12:28When we get to the second line, we're going to give you $400 additional betting money.
12:32You bet your way across that line.
12:34Remember, minimum bets are $50, except when we get to the big bet.
12:37That's the top line where you must wager at least half your dollars.
12:41Now, don't forget, you're going to have the opportunity to change one card on each line from the cards that Lacey is dealing out on stage left over here.
12:50You ready to do it?
12:51That's all there is to it.
12:52Oh, of course I am.
12:53I'm always ready.
12:54All right.
12:55Let's get this lady started.
12:56Let's give her $200.
12:57Yes.
12:58She's got her $200.
12:59I'm going to tell you one thing.
13:01You play your cards right.
13:02You can turn $200 into $32,000.
13:05Okay.
13:06Here's your base card.
13:07I'm ready.
13:08Let's take a look at it right now.
13:09It's an eight.
13:10Okay.
13:11I want to change that card.
13:12Which card do you want?
13:13I want to take number three.
13:14Take card number three.
13:15Let's do some good work here.
13:16This eight now becomes a six.
13:17Okay.
13:18A little bit of help.
13:19A little bit of help.
13:20$200 playing off the six.
13:21I want to bet $100 higher.
13:23$100 higher than a six.
13:25It is higher than a six.
13:26Okay.
13:27I'm ready to go.
13:28$200 playing on the jacks.
13:29I want to get $250 lower.
13:31$250 lower than a jack.
13:33It's an ace.
13:34Oh.
13:35Okay.
13:36That's okay.
13:37Listen.
13:38Good card to play off.
13:39You have $50 to bet with.
13:40Come on.
13:41I got one.
13:42All of it higher.
13:43All of it higher.
13:44Wait, wait.
13:45I got $500 right now.
13:46That's my producer.
13:47Because you said higher than an ace.
13:48We know that there is nothing higher than an ace.
13:50You meant lower than an ace.
13:51Of course I did.
13:52You got the king.
13:53It's my mistake.
13:54I'm going to give you their money right now.
13:55Okay.
13:56All right.
13:57Good for you.
13:58Yeah.
13:59Good for you.
14:00All right.
14:01You've got $100.
14:02We're going to give you $400 additional betting money.
14:04We're going to move this king up here.
14:06This is your base card.
14:07You now have $500 and you're playing off the king.
14:10Okay.
14:11Let's go.
14:12I'm ready.
14:13Here we go.
14:14$400 lower than the king.
14:15$450 lower than a king.
14:17A five.
14:18Yeah.
14:19Excellent.
14:20$950 off the five.
14:21All right.
14:22I want to take $700 and go higher than that five.
14:26$700 higher than a five.
14:28A king.
14:29$1,650.
14:31Okay.
14:32I'm all ready now.
14:33I want to go.
14:35$1,650.
14:37I want to go $1,500 lower than the king.
14:43$1,500 lower than a king.
14:44$1,500 lower.
14:45$1,500 lower.
14:46Do you know?
14:47This is a $3,000 bet.
14:48Of course.
14:49Okay.
14:50$1,500 lower than a king.
14:52A seven.
14:53Excellent.
14:54Woo.
14:55$3,150.
14:56Here's the seven.
14:57I would definitely like to get rid of that card and I would like to take number two.
15:05Number two.
15:06Number two now becomes a three.
15:09A three.
15:10A three.
15:11Now, Tina, you have $3,150.
15:15You must wager at least $1,575 on this.
15:18I want to take all of it and go higher.
15:21All of it.
15:22All of it.
15:23All of it.
15:24All of it.
15:25Higher than a three.
15:26A ten.
15:27Oh.
15:28Oh.
15:29Oh.
15:30Oh.
15:31Oh.
15:32Wonderful.
15:33Oh.
15:34That was terrific.
15:35Wonderful.
15:36Awesome.
15:37You know what?
15:38You now have $6,500.
15:41All right.
15:42And when we come back right after this commercial, we're going to meet a new challenge with Christina.
16:00All right.
16:01We're ready.
16:02Let's go on.
16:03I want to get some more game going.
16:04Let's meet our new challenger.
16:05Come on in, Clay.
16:06Good to see you.
16:07All right.
16:09Why don't you introduce yourself, Clay?
16:11All right.
16:12My name's Clay Dial.
16:13I'm Fayetteville, Arkansas, where I attend the University of Arkansas as a senior psychology
16:17major.
16:18Well, good.
16:19It's good to have you here with us.
16:20Well, thank you very much.
16:21You've already cut your cards backstage.
16:22Yes, sir.
16:23And who's dealing out the cards?
16:24Susanna's dealing out the cards right now.
16:25Let's get on to our game.
16:26Here it is.
16:27Question number one.
16:28Game one goes to our champion team.
16:30We surveyed 100 married women and we asked them, have you ever had an extramarital affair?
16:35How many married women admitted they have had an affair?
16:39Okay.
16:40I don't think women are promiscuous at all.
16:42And I don't think that very many of them are going to go out and have affairs.
16:45And if they do, there's no way they're going to admit it.
16:47So that's got to be low about nine out of 100.
16:50Nine.
16:51That is low.
16:52Nine people.
16:53Nine out of 100.
16:54Clay, higher, lower?
16:55What do you think?
16:56I don't think so.
16:57I really believe that today, especially in these big cities, people have just gotten
17:00outrageous with their morals.
17:01I'm going to say it's higher.
17:03You're saying it's higher than nine.
17:05Okay.
17:06The actual number of married women who have had an affair is 15.
17:10It is.
17:11It is higher.
17:12So, Clay, here we go.
17:14To the board with you.
17:15You've gotten the high-low question correct.
17:17You can change this base card.
17:18Let's look at it right now.
17:19It's a deuce.
17:20Oh, I don't want to change it.
17:21I want to go higher.
17:22It's going to go higher than a two.
17:23A nine.
17:25Clay, a freeze.
17:26What do you want to do?
17:27I'll freeze.
17:28Okay.
17:29So, Clay is going to freeze, protect his position, and realize, of course, that if he makes
17:33a mistake, he'd give Tina a free shot at the cards.
17:35Let's go on to our next question.
17:36It goes to you, Clay.
17:37We surveyed 100 lawyers who specialize in defending criminals, and we asked them, have
17:44you ever defended a person you believed was guilty?
17:47How many lawyers said they have?
17:49Oh, I think as part of their job, that's something they just have to do.
17:54That's part of what keeps our justice system working.
17:57So, I want to say that's pretty high, about 55.
18:0055.
18:0155 out of 100.
18:02Tina, high or lower?
18:03What do you say?
18:04I think that that's got to be just a little bit higher, because if they're defending him,
18:09there's got to be more or less most of the time.
18:11If it was bad, then there's a reason why they're defending him.
18:14So, I think it's just a little higher.
18:15You're going to go higher.
18:16I'll tell you, I have a feeling that it is going to be higher and significantly so.
18:20Let's take a look at the answer, though.
18:21The actual number of lawyers who have defended someone they thought was guilty is 95.
18:27It is higher and significantly so.
18:30All right, Tina.
18:31Here's your base card.
18:32You know the rules.
18:33You can change it if you like.
18:34It's an eight.
18:35Okay, I want to change that card.
18:37Change that eight.
18:38I don't blame you.
18:39Let's give it a good card here.
18:40A nine.
18:41Oh, okay.
18:42Well, that's okay.
18:43I'm going to go lower.
18:44Lower than a nine.
18:45Lower.
18:46Yeah, okay.
18:47I'm going to go higher.
18:48Higher than a five.
18:49An eight.
18:50Oh, okay.
18:51I think I'm going to freeze right there.
18:52Freeze.
18:53Freezing, protecting the position.
18:55And we'll be right back with our next question right after this commercial message.
18:59It's exceptional.
19:00Welcome back.
19:01Unfortunately, we do not have enough time to continue on with this game.
19:02We're going to be continuing it tomorrow.
19:03I was just commenting to Tina and Clay.
19:04Nobody broke on the cards.
19:05Nobody had to go back to their original base card.
19:06And I saw the look in your eye.
19:07You were ready to go on the eight.
19:08Uh-huh.
19:09Yeah, you were ready to go on the eight.
19:10Yeah.
19:11You were ready to go on the eight.
19:12Well, we'll have an opportunity to find out whether or not you will be going on that eight
19:15tomorrow.
19:16How about you, Clay?
19:17You think you've got enough in you to come back here tomorrow and play it out?
19:18I don't have any doubt at all.
19:19All right.
19:20Well, it's good to have you.
19:21Yeah, you were ready to go on the eight.
19:22Uh-huh.
19:23Yeah, you were ready to go on the eight.
19:24Well, we'll have an opportunity to find out whether or not you will be going on that
19:27eight tomorrow.
19:28How about you, Clay?
19:29You think you've got enough in you to come back here tomorrow and play it out?
19:31I don't have any doubt at all.
19:32All right.
19:33Well, it's good to have you.
19:34I just want to hear them say we don't have any doubt at all one more time.
19:37Any way, not a bad first show for us?
19:39Oh, it's great.
19:40Excellent, excellent.
19:41Well, if you enjoyed it, Susannah Williams, Lacey Pemberton, Gene Wood and Bill Rafferty,
19:45we'll see you tomorrow.
