Would you like to use your skills of knowledge and gambling on a television show similar to one noted Las Vegas resident (Ahem, “Jeopardy!” star James Holzhauer)? The Game Show Network wants to give you a chance.

Producers and casting directors for a reboot of “Catch 21” are looking for contestants to audition in Las Vegas for their upcoming season.

The show combines trivia knowledge with blackjack abilities, and contestants have a chance to win up to $25,000.

Supervising Casting Director Rita Koutsoulis said 65 shows will be taped from late July through mid-August.

The original show, hosted by Alfonso Riberio, ran from 2008-11.
