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.
@@shac9131 Some TV markets don't always pick up a program for national syndication. In some cases, the market could pick up something else or air a local program in its place. Super Pay Cards aired in the New York Market because it is a huge market for advertisers.
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.
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".
Well, it is the new generation... and besides, I didn't use Art James either, and Jen's voice actress was delighted I did it (She wished she could've voiced Jen herself)
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.
@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?
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.

this just brings back my childhood
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.
I don't recall ever seeing it in Cincinnati.

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

I saw this game on television a long time ago.

Zach Horan WNEW-TV (Channel 5) in New York City ran "Super Pay Cards" during the weekday afternoon block in the early 1980's.
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.
MTN Productionsen
I believe, KTTV (Channel 11) here in Los Angeles also aired it on weekday afternoons during the station's independent years.

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

Super Pay Cards is on Game TV Canada since 2007.
Super Pay Cards 1981-82 series.
Henson Lorde I never had Game TV, but it's in Canada only.
I recall this program when it aired on WNEW-TV (WNYW Fox 5 New York).
It began with 20 and ended with 16.
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
R.I.P. Art James
He was the handsomest host I ever saw
In D. K. Mykan's Special Version of Super Pay Cards, They Have Jennifer "Jen" Masterson, From 6Teen Instead of Mary Lou Basaraba, As Co-Hostess.
Well, it is the new generation... and besides, I didn't use Art James either, and Jen's voice actress was delighted I did it (She wished she could've voiced Jen herself)
Wow this is mint!!!
?
it means as if it was in perfect condition.
as if it was freshly minted in a money mint.
13 is an unlucky number.
If only Sam had gotten the 6 in that 3rd round, it would have been a 390-390 tie, not sure if a tie ever happened on the show.
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.
There's a tie in this one...

11:32 that lead that he had is now gone in 1 turn
26:04 from here on in 5 of a kind is possible
Is this Canadian ?
Does this show still exist? If so, it’d make a great place for Buzzr.
nice
When I play this game at work, and a coworker turns over a 3 or a 2 shes like ugh low card
Joan did not play the game well.
Joan made me angry a little. She was taking cards that did not help her hand.
In the last round she cost herself $50 and cost Peter $100 after she already had no chance to win.
Laurie looks like she's got steam coming out of her ears LOL
She’s not mean, just really competitive
It's a shame you only got a small chunk of the first episode you taped.
But WHY did you cut off the ending of the second taped show??? Why, Sim?
never heard of it
@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?
3 is a very very low card
How come they don't put this one game on GSN network?
A Joker?
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
