Jim:"And as always a choice of two base cards" Later changed to a choice of two on each line, not just the first line. |

Jim: "You get to the Big Bet, where you must bet at least half the money." |
On the pilot, some things looked different. Like the contestant podium... |

...and the Money Cards. |
Full set shot from the pilot, which is always seen in the opening of the Perry shows. Notice the Money Cards board and "Play Off" displayed on the card board. |
