Celebrity Blackjack

The action starts fast on Celebrity Blackjack with the first group of celebrities. Throughout most of the episode, it's a duel between Shannon Elizabeth and Jason Alexander, with Snoop Doog and Camryn Manheim providing most of the entertainment. Camryn Manheim and Snoop Dogg both lose large amounts early, but manage to hang on until the final hand. Meanwhile, Jason Alexander leads the majority of the game, with Shannon Elizabeth trailing close behind. It comes down to the secret final bets in the 21st hand. The cards go Shannon's way and she finishes with a total of $191,000, with Snoop Dogg in second at $60,000. Jason ends with $50,500, Camryn ends with a measly $500 and Kevin busts out completely.

The first episode of Celebrity Blackjack II is marked by wild hands, unpredictable wagers, and everything from side-betting to cursing from the celebrities. Jason Alexander gets off to an early lead, but finds himself in close competition with Jeff Probst. Probst plays a rather conservative betting strategy early in the game, but doesn't get far with it. He later switches to far more aggressive betting and battles back and forth with Jason for the lead. Meanwhile, Ricki Lake and Steve Howey find themselves at the bottom and struggling to avoid elimination. In the end, Ricki Lake is eliminated on a maximum bet, but Steve Howey remains in. With the stakes high for the final hand, Steve Howey raises his total, while Jeff Probst and Jason Alexander stay neck-and-neck. The game comes down to an unpredictable final hand where with the bets the celebrities make, anything truly could happen.
