Two Cuties Take on the Mob for the Money
Two Cuties Take on the Mob for the Money by Roxanne McDonald
 |
A “1 vs. 100” player who is lovely to look at makes it all the way to 156 grand before taking off, and an adorably confident and bright player takes over, without hesitation, answering the first six of her questions with lightning speed and with perfect accuracy. |
Jay Stakeland (sic) made it delightful for us viewers, as not only was he pretty sharp but was great looking. Paula Russell also made watching “1 vs. 100” enjoyable, as she is pop culture savvy and quick with retorts. When, for
example, Bob Saget comments on how quickly she answers a question, she lets him know she plans on being around for awhile, and so, yes, that is her answer—a correct one, mind you.
Also playing, in the mob, were David Eckstein, World Series MVP for the St. Louis Cardinals; Brad Rutter, the player who beat Ken Jennings; ten Laker girls; several “Las Vegas” cast members; several Las Vegas showgirls; several dealers from the Southpoint Hotel and Casino; Kevin Federline, better known as K-Fed; and Annie Duke, professional poker player—or as cyber-writers have it, the best female poker player in the world.
Questions are just as entertaining as ever, and, though Jay suggested they could be more straightforward (heh-heh), they are as interestingly formed as ever, too.
Here are the latest questions:
