"Power of 10" is a CBS game show currently airing Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 8/7c. Comedian Drew Carey is the host. The game starts with a preliminary round where two contestants guess the percentage of Americans that answered a question a certain way. Whoever is closer on three questions moves on to the money round where they can win up to $10 million.
The money round is set up like this:
Question 1 ($1,000)-40% window
Question 2 ($10,000)-30% window
Question 3 ($100,000)-20% window
Question 4 ($1,000,000)-10% window
Question 5 ($10,000,000)-The contestant must guess the exact percentage from the previous question (basically a 1/11 shot).
The contestant can quit at any time but if the answer incorrectly, they lose by the power of 10 (ex. the contestant misses question three, they walk away with only $1,000).
