I'm on "Trump Card" (1of2)

Taped in Donald Trump's Trump Castle casino in Atlantic City in 1990. I didn't get to meet him, but I did turn a $500 profit at one of his blackjack tables after the taping.

Great work. You have a knack for this, for sure.

Will you be able to appear on other game shows? I understand there's supposed to be a limit to the number of shows you appear on. Would that limit affect you?

@SuperCartiel Every show has different rules. In fact, I happen to have an audition on Monday. And, no. NOBODY gets details until I tape and have an air date...

Peace.

i have a question, why did the audience play along? (that just does not make sense to me at all.)

[Kinravip]

There were door prizes for the studio audience.

"Trump Card" isn't bad, but the whole Finale thing basically made the whole run pointless.

Jimmy: "Congratulations, you've won our $100,000 Tournament!"

*applause*

Contestant: "Thank you...wait, where's my check?"

Jimmy: "Well, you have to earn it by playing our Bonus Round-"

Contestant: "Wait a minute -- I just lasted throughout this season and beat all my competitors. I think that earned me $100,000."

Jimmy: "Yes you *did* beat your opponents, but we're douchebags."

So.....yeah.

I used to watch Trump Card when i was Little, and it's good to see an Episode of Trump Card on Youtube. I do hope that they put Trump Card on GSN one day.

Jimmy Cefalo was a color commentator for The NFL on NBC in the late '80s, paired with the late Charlie Jones. Cefalo now hosts a radio talk show in Florida.

@LLoubell I thought Jimmy did pretty good, but if they got a big name host like Peter Tomarken, Jim Perry, Chuck Woolery, Wink Martindale, etc., it probably would've lasted longer. Furthermore, it was an awesome show, and definitely should be attempted to be revamped at say Trump Plaza or Marina, that would be awesome, bring TC back to AC.

I have Good News. The Premiere of Trump Card is Finally on Youtube.

This was a good show, they shouddl've extended this another year.

I used to watch this in the afternoon when I was in high school. There was one episode I remember where a Naval officer was all the way down in third place, and then he had a streak towards the end and won everything. By the way, did Debi look as good in person?

Good fashion lesson here. Everybody is wearing a suit that wouldn't look out of place today. Except you. You're clearly wearing a 1980s/early 1990s suit. It shows the importance of wearing classical suits as opposed to the latest fashion. You were cutting-edge 20 years ago, but now it's laughable.

David's suit is perhaps a bit dated and was never fashionable but it's exactly the sort of suit that educators and principals wear. It's an academic-type suit. So he's right on the money.

nO TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP HAS THE GRAND PRIZE WON IN A BONUS GAME, except $100,000 Pyramid but that was the name of the game.
