You've been randomly assigned Box 15 for this one...

Thanks!

First 5...

1.

18.

6.

16.

19.

1 - 1p! That's the way to start.
18 - 50p! It gets better!
6 - £250! Your system seems to be working...
16 - £10! Is this an all-blue opening round?
19 - £50! It is!

The Banker is terrified...

Banker's offer:

£17,000

Wow, amazing start.

But hopefully it'll keep getting better from here!

So it's NO DEAL.

Next 3:

8.

5.

17.

8 - £20,000. Had to happen, entire Power 5 intact.
5 - 10p! Wow.
17 - £50,000. That's a dose of reality.

He thinks he can get you out of the chair early and kill off any optimism the wings have...

Banker's offer:

£20,000

Fat chance.

NO DEAL.

Next 3:

7.

12.

14.

7 - £100,000!
12 - £500. More like it!
14 - £10,000...

The Banker says he would have offered £26,000 if you had hit a blue and not £100,000...

Banker's offer:

£19,999

Still got lots of orange backups... and of course £250k is still there.

NO DEAL.

Next 3:

15.

21.

9.

15 is yours!

Oops.

In that case:

21.

9.

13.

21 - £1!
9 - £750!
13 - £100! What a round! What a board!

£1
£1,000
£3,000
£5,000
£15,000
£35,000
£75,000
£250,000

The Banker is now convinced that the £250,000 was meant to go in this round, but didn't because it's in your box

Banker's offer:

£32,000

What a brilliant board!

It's a lovely offer but even the worst round possible will still leave me with 4 oranges and 1 blue... so I think it's worth a go.

NO DEAL.

Next 3:

20.

4.

2.

20 - £1,000! It's part of the perfect round!
4 - £250,000! After all that... it would have been Wakey's lucky day.
2 - £15,000. Could still be yours, two of the Power 5 at five-box!

£1
£3,000
£5,000

£35,000
£75,000

Banker's offer:

£17,000

I think I've pushed it far enough... and to get significantly more than that would require leaving £75k to 2-box, or by winning £35k from my box.

So it's a DEAL.

Final 3:

22.

10.

11.

The Banker phones up and says you could have saved yourself a lot of bother by taking the opening offer

22 - £35,000...
10 - £3,000...
11 - £5,000! Well I never...

£5 vs £75,000...

Banker's offer:

Banker's Gamble

If it was £1 vs £100k I'd have considered it and may, just may, have taken it. I'd have also been more keen on low red vs £75k. But on £1 vs £75k... no.

NO DEAL (keep the money).

Taking the gamble on would have led to either a dream or a disaster. Which?

15 - £5! Disaster averted!

Incredibly, your last seven boxes on the wings were reds... 3 had £75,000. What a dramatic game!

What would you (and others) have dealt at?

The £32,000 was very tempting and it'd have been a definite no deal if there were more Power 5s up on the board at the time, and likewise a defiite deal if there had been fewer oranges and more blues. But the oranges sucked me into going on... in the belief that I'd hopefully get a respectable 5-box offer which I could bail out at if need be (which actually happened).

Would have wanted to play on at £32,000, I think I would... would have been easy to get sucked in at £17,000 but it wouldn't have mattered as I wouldn't have taken on that Banker's Gamble with a Banker's Power 5 amount. With £100k, definitely, and with a low red - or even high blue - probably.

The only one I'd have really thought about £17,000 final offer, and I'm not really sure what I'd have done there.
