Already over half the average. And at this stake level too. Frankly, you could do far worse things than just take this.

But I can't. Not on this configuration. It's not even the strength in terms of how much money there is - percentage of the mean already absorbs that - it's the absurd depth of it. The sheer comically absurd depth of it. I could have a disaster round and still have a better than 25% chance there's £200k or more in my box.

The mind boggles. The bat NO DEALs and flies into boxes 21, 20, and 22.

We fly deeper into this supersonic game...


21 - £350,000!! Not a good start, but five huge boxes remain!

20 - £225,000! I don't like this damage...

22 - £200,000! It was an awful round, but three huge amounts are still up there! :shock: BT...

The Banker is beyond relieved after that round, but at this point he says it's far from over...

After that round, would you like to come in with a prediction?

Average mid-60s, surely it's coming down in generosity given the destabilising there... The Governor is obvious, too obvious... £34,444 surely too high...

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£28,500



Still strong enough for this to be a Bonus Box prediction.

28.5...


BANKER'S OFFER

£31,000



... and at 8.06% you have a £35,000 Bonus Box! How will that affect things in this bizarre game?!

There are multiple ways for me to get to £35k here. The Banker has to be worried about that. NO DEAL.

13, 15, 19...

We had an incredible round, followed by a horrific round. Let's repeat the former now...


13 - £250,000! Just two remain now and this is beginning to get uncomfortable...

15 - £10! Glad to see one of those again...

19 -
£100!! Nice one! Big 8-box now...


BT

The Banker thinks that this is a better offer now, given the position you're in...

Keeping the top two to 5-box is a 5/14 chance, losing both is the legendary 10.7%... The reward for the former is disproportionate with the BB, it's another NO DEAL!

11, 7, 9...

We have to hope for the former... You'll be transformed into a position like you were at the beginning of this massive game...


11 - £20! Good start, but we've a long way to go...

7 - £7,500! All yellows now gone, and we can't hit both the biggies!

9 -
£5,000!! EXACTLY the round we needed there!! :D :D This'll be good!!


BT...

The Banker admits he made a mistake by not raising his 8-box offer, and now he's paying for it... with two offers:

BANKER'S OFFER

£54,000


OR

BANKER'S OFFER

£68,000 & NO BONUS BOX

I was expecting £59k fixed, and expecting to agonise over all three options if the BB offer was in the high 40s.

£54k is on the cusp of making the fixed offer better, but when it's close like that, the shot of six figures is the difference-maker. DEAL £54,000.

5, 3, 1!

It's a DEAL! It's another great win for you, but let's now decimate that board!


5 - £200,000! One would have gone!

3 - £50!

1 - ** RING **

He's calling now with this...

BANKER'S OFFER

BANKER'S GAMBLE



In this incredible game, could you take £275k and into our Bonus Box? The choice is all yours, David...
