Yeah, the mirroring did indeed make his move the EV+ one, yes. Cruel.

Oof. I think in Andrew's position I'd have stuck knowing I had an 80% chance of four points anyway, but he did the right thing in terms of holding off and then mirroring Davao's 23 pick to prevent the loss!


In cae you didn't notice, KP, Andrew didn't get one of the top 3 amounts available in his main game. Had Box 23 gave him +£15,000 he would've gotten 4 extra pints and even Double would've gotten him 2 extra points. Considering he had an 80% chance of winning either way as long as he mirrored Davao's Box 23 pick, he really had nothing to lose and everything to gain by going for Box 23.



Then why didn't you go for it in your game? I know it wouldn't of worked out but still.

Because I spanked the Banker in the main game, and I would've lost all 4 of those points had I dealt Box 23 and it contained either of the lower options.
