I have never seen this game. It is really fun. It’s a lot like a matching game. Like concentration in many ways. How do you basic principle. All about memory. And it was clear some these players were not paying attention to where they saw these cards. I remembered where those aces were in that last hand, and I would’ve gone for the aces that I’ve been him. Would’ve been a really good pay day for him. Anyway, he won though, so there you go. Thanks for posting this.

this just brings back my childhood

Thank you very much!! My all time fave game and my all time fave host

An underrated classic that should have gotten a long run but because it was syndicated and aired all over the place, it never had a chance.

Great quality, thanx for sharing!

You know, this ain't bad at all. I could use a lil extra juice (i.e. contestants soliciting audience for advice like TPIR) and the pace to be sped up a bit. But I like this.

This was my favourite game show as a kid. Loved it.

All luck and zero skill. Perfect for dense people like you.

I saw this game on television a long time ago.

Never saw this!

Watch most of this but did not understand it!!!!

This and press your luck...2 of the greatest.

This is exactly what I have been saying to my players at work all along especially the new players if you wanna win and take down the experienced players, you've got to be aggressive, cutthroat, ruthless.

I dont remember this ...I LOVE THIS SHOW !

I'm kind of surprised this format wasn't picked up in the UK. Shows like this were all over the schedules in the early 1980s, it has that steady pace that was popular here at the time and I suspect it would have been fairly cheap to buy in as it wasn't massively successful (the UK made hit game shows out of many a US-originated flop, and this was better than that). I think this would have worked in a lunchtime or early afternoon slot. Nice format generally, although the host was a bit awkward with his intros of the contestants (I'm guessing this had a punishing schedule as he seemed a bit worn out).

Thanks for sharing...these must be from early in the run, as later episodes don't have Mary Lou pointing out during her opening payout rundown that a full house is "3 of a kind, plus a pair".

And straights (above three of a kind) and flushes (below four of a kind) didn't mean a thing.

In the original 70s version, Art almost always explained that a Full House was 3 of a kind plus a pair

These are episodes not seen in the US in over 35 years since 1982, and not seen in Canada in 25 years(Super Pay Cards ran in reruns for about 10 years on CHCH, despite lasting only one season in 1981-82 originally), This is from a Canadian airing as the US airings of the show didn't show the audience game because the US airings had more commercial time than the Canadian airings. The Super Pay Cards home game may or not have been released, I don't think any game collector has seen one.

It aired at 1:30PM in 1981-82 on WNEW, and aired in Atlantic City, NJ on WWAC Channel 53 in its first year as a station in late 1981-early 1982, I believe at 5:30PM.

It's funny how they plug a hotel in Toronto while the show was produced in Montreal.

It began with 20 and ended with 16.

Nice quality of this show. Too bad, the intro is gone, except the ending. I remember this show was on WNEW-TV (channel 5) in NYC every afternoon back in the 1980's.

IIRC a tie did happen once, going back to 36 years old memory of the original broadcast. A tie was broken by each player taking one card not picked on the round three board, and the higher card picked won the game.

In the last round she cost herself $50 and cost Peter $100 after she already had no chance to win.

@11:58 "It can be done, Sam" .. mmm... well... at this point in the game, the opponent has two Aces and two Jokers, so basically, four Aces. How on earth can he beat her? Of course, in normal poker a straight flush/royal would beat her, but were those even a thing in this game?

Strange that the host told him to look for a 6. She already had him beat with 4 A's. Duh!

Too many low cards in the strategy round

Wow...I have never been so damn bored by a gameshow! This game show has no 'meat' to it. The players have to make minimal decisions, the home viewer really cannot get involved in any way save for memory, and the cash awards are very meager.

BORING
