In episode 4 of season 1 of Card Sharks, host Joel McHale welcomes two new contestants, Janas and Tony, as they compete to win big cash prizes by correctly guessing whether the next card drawn will be higher or lower than the previous one.

With the help of their individual cheering sections, Janas and Tony go head-to-head in a best-of-three game series to determine who will advance to the bonus round. The first game begins with a question posed to both contestants, such as "What percentage of Americans say they regularly eat breakfast?" They both take turns guessing the percentage, with the closest answer receiving control of the card deck. The contestant in control then draws the first card and must decide whether the next card will be higher or lower. If they guess correctly, they continue to draw cards until they either guess incorrectly or decide to "freeze" and keep their winnings for that round. Play then switches to the other contestant, who follows the same pattern. The first player to win two games advances to the bonus round.

In addition to the "higher or lower" gameplay, the show also features various bonus games throughout the episode. One such game involves three oversized playing cards being shown to the contestants, who must guess which card is the highest. Another bonus game involves the contestants trying to guess the price of a variety of consumer goods, with the closest guess to the actual price earning extra cash.

The bonus round, also known as the Money Cards, features a seven-card deck that contestants must work their way through by correctly guessing whether the next card will be higher or lower. At each level, the contestant has the opportunity to wager their winnings from the previous level on the outcome of the next card. If they successfully work their way through all seven cards, they win the grand prize of $10,000.

Throughout the episode, Joel McHale keeps the energy high with his quick wit and playful banter with the contestants. Viewers at home can also play along by downloading the Card Sharks app, which allows them to make their own predictions and compete against other fans of the show.

Overall, episode 4 of season 1 of Card Sharks offers fast-paced, family-friendly entertainment that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats as they root for their favorite contestant to win big. With its mix of trivia, luck, and strategy, the show offers something for everyone and is sure to become a staple in households around the country.
