Hello and Welcome Back to StatsMan's DoND!

Mixed fortunes in the last couple of games... Hoping today's game will be lucky for her, it's...

LEAH!

You have been assigned Box 16 at random.

First 5 boxes, please!

Hey!
Let's start off with 11, 6, 22, 19, and 1.

Excellent! Let's hope you're as lucky (if not luckier!) as last time!

-Box 11-
£5,000

-Box 6-

This is alright!

No higher now...

OUCH. That's rotten

-Box 1-

AT LAST!

Banker Time...

should have done my pattern the other way!

Nothing for the Banker to be unduly concerned about after that round, but it's early days!

About expected, I guess. Still plenty more up there, though, so I'm pretty sure it's not worth bailing out just because of a rough start. NO DEAL!

Next cases are 12, 17, and 5.

Obviously, we go on! Loads to play for yet!

-Box 12-
£3,000

That might've been handy later, but never mind...

-Box 17-
£50

-Box 5-
MYSTERY BOX

Another early departure for that. Not a bad round!

Much improved configuration now, not quite a board worthy of five-figures yet thinks the banker... but pretty close!

Decent recovery, I guess? Still way too many blues for my liking though.

£9,500...
Yeah, can't really even pretend to see an argument not to press on. NO DEAL!

Next boxes shall be 13, 14, and 10.

Of course!

-Box 13-

A high blue... but still a blue at least!

OH NO! Just when you were on the road to some recovery...

The banker doesn't see the situation has changed all that much, so...

Really? Sheesh. About 50/50 I keep both the £75k and £100k into next round, and if I don't I can't really see the offer improving. Makes this offer annoyingly tempting... would really like the twist box to show up soon. I guess if it all goes pear-shaped, at least £10k and £20k make decent fallbacks. Honestly, 4/11 higher than the offer makes it a little too unconvincing in the end, so it seems we're playing to 8-box. NO DEAL!

Next up: 9, 2, and 18.

Interesting deliberation, but ultimately we go on!

-Box 9-
£75,000

Oh dear...

-Box 2-

The best response anyway!

-Box 18-

About as you predicted...

Due to the instability of the board, the banker is forced to drop you, but not dramatically...

That's painful. :/
Should the £100k remain in play now, the offer should finally start to actually move. Lose it, of course, and things get a lot less nice. And of course, the twist box is lurking somewhere...
This board appears to be trying its best to make me miserable, and it's kind of working. Still, with 3/8 values (almost half) higher than the offer, it's hard to justify bailing. Of course, that means there's a small chance of losing all three this round, but if that happens at least the offer will actually move.
NO DEAL, please. Next boxes can be 7, 15, and 8.

Yes, a fairly static game so far... let's hope there's seismic shifting in the right direction this round!

BEST POSSIBLE ROUND!

Now then!

Banker Time!

...in all my fretting to consider the worst possible round, I never really considered the reverse happening. Now we're finally talking!

What a turnaround! Now we're well into 5-figures!
