Round 6

Best of luck to those of you still in live play!

17 - £75,000

Well, that is now game over in terms of a banker spanking. Can we still win £5,000?

13 - £5,000

Guess not. Are we going to have the 1 in 60 nightmare round in the worst order?

1 - £50

Banker time...

This is the last offer this banker will make for at least two weeks! It's looking like KP is next week's guest banker and daniel123 is the following week's, provided that we work out a certain agreement to make sure we're in sync.

Banker's offer:

£250

If you have yet to negotiate, you can still do so. But is it worth it?

Deal or No Deal?

Good thing I dealt when I did; I would've wanted 75% of the average at 11 and 8 box and £8,000ish at 5 box so I would've crashed had I gone on.

The joys of forgetting to post....

It looks like others had the same idea as me. I figured that removing the Bottom 3 amounts (a 1 in 154 chance) and having a better opening round than Rich and Charlie (2 of the joint record holders of the highest opening offer in regular play [£20,000]) merited the joint highest opening offer. Saperogo, any particular reason why you didn't see it that way?

Because I don't keep track of what the highest opening offers of all time are? Because I felt like doing it this way?

I also didn't expect half the gang to negotiate the opening offer; I thought everyone liked to play strong boards.

I got lucky with the max negotiable being what I negotiated!
