(Note: This will not be a regular feature. I want to bring attention to this new offering in the Buckeye State and to show how it’s played.)

Host: David McCreary (cut from the same cloth as Dylan Lane)

There are 31 contestants each week–1 returning champion and 30 new players. To start, 15 of the 30 new contestants play. They’re broken into five teams of three players. As is the case with every lottery game, the object is to attain the most cash. In this game, it’s done on two separate boards each with 20 squares. A team is chosen at random. Each team’s members vote to play the safe board (less money and less zero values) or to take the risk (5 of 20 squares have zeroes to start, but the money is larger). The middle player of the team hits a spin button. The board “spins” and chooses a random value from whichever board is chosen. The dollar amount is added to the team’s total. Another random team is chosen to participate. This continues until all the teams have played a round. In rounds 2 and 3, the money values go up on both boards, as do the number of zero values. Whichever team has more money after 3 rounds advances and splits their winnings three ways. A second game with the 15 remaining new players is done. Every contestant is guaranteed $1000.

The six winning team members from the first two games each choose a card from a set of six. Four of the cards are worth nothing. One card is worth $5000. The other is worth $10,000. Each player picks one of the numbers and has the opportunity to steal cards from other players. The $5000 card is revealed. Each player has the opportunity to keep their card or swap it with a random card, including possibly the $5000 card. After the round of swapping, the holder of the $5000 card can either leave the game with the $5000 or steal someone’s card. The person whose card is taken in the swap receives $2500, and $2500 is added to an Extended Play jackpot. (Extended Play tickets are $2 instant tickets, versus regular tickets which are $1.) The people who have nothing are revealed randomly one-by-one. The $10,000 holder advances to play the champ for $50,000.

The end game has the champ and the last survivor of the 30 new players picking balls from a container. There are 10 balls–7 red, 2 white, and 1 green. Whomever picks either a white or green ball first wins $50,000. If the green ball is picked and that player got on the show via an Extended Play ticket, that person wins $50,000 plus whatever is in the aforementioned Extended Play jackpot. The returning champ is given the opportunity to pick first or second. From there, the players continue picking balls until a winning ball is pulled. There is no limit on how long someone can be on the show. For those who care, your first winner is a gentleman named Adam from Twinsburg. Adam won $63,116 and will return next Saturday to pick more balls and defend his title.
