Overview: 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.
