I would've instantly posted DEAL £200,000 to that before the Banker corrected his error.

... starting with Box 23:

DOUBLE (£79,990 & BB)
+£15,000 (£54,995 & BB)
MONEY BACK (£39,995)
HALF (£19,997.50)
NOTHING

Not the most attractive set of options in normal circumstances, but there's a Bonus Box that can come into play if you land on a red card... Is it worth buying Box 23?

If I was prepared to leave with nothing, I'd have played on at 11-box NO DEAL, hypo 5.

It'd have been a NO DEAL at this stage, and Option 5?

Now then, trialling another twist I'm considering for Season 4 is Ben, and he's playing SPLIT DECISION!

We're going to split our usual 22-box board into two games, both of 11 boxes! We'll play them simultaneously, and then at the very end, you must decide which prize to stick with and which prize to put through Box 23! There'll be offers at 8-, 5- and 2-box on each board, and we'll have the one prediction here still for 23 Boost, Bonus Box or the Offer Button.

We'll see how that board will split for your game...


BLUE BOARD:
10p
50p
£5
£500
£750
£3,000
£10,000
£15,000
£50,000
£75,000
£100,000

RED BOARD:
1p
£1
£10
£50
£100
£250
£1,000
£5,000
£20,000
£35,000
£250,000

Interesting split, an opportunity to take a lot of money home here! Box 11 is on the table, and we'll need to open no more than 5 boxes before we get to 8-box on either of those boxes, so let's begin! Good luck!

Deciding which of those of those 11 box boards to take would be a VERY tough decision, which means they're both finely balanced.

1, 3, 5, 7 and 13 to start, please.

Let's see how we get on, a learning curve for all of us!


1 - 1p! Excellent start on the more volatile board!

3 - £500 is one from each!

5 - £35,000 widens the gap on the reds...

7 - £100! Takes us to our first red offer! BT...

** RING **

The Banker has been looking forward to trying this one out, there's plenty of things he can try out offers-wise, and things you're the perfect guinea pig for the experiment!

Well then, with 8 boxes left on that, would you like to make a prediction on that?

I'll wait for the Banker to make a statement. I would've predicted £12,000.

£12k?

BANKER'S OFFER

£11,800

Would've been ruddy close!!

Darn it.

On a classic Deal 8 box board that would be a marginal decision for me, so having 2 shots at the money definitely sways me to go on. NO DEAL.

13, 15, 17, 21 and 22 next.

Let's play on!


13 - £250,000!! Which seems not to have been the right decision on Red...

15 - £5 is good news for Blue though!

17 - £50,000 is a knock, but it's offer time on Blue...

** RING **

The Banker's glad that at least there's not much to worry about from one half of this game, but needs to focus on making a saving on Blue...

... but is it worth a prediction here?

Not bottling it this time. I'd definitely take this 8 box board over the other I faced, so this is probably going to be a bit more than 11.8k.

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£13,000

Which prediction type would you like to go for here?

For the Box 23 boost, please.

Understandable, given the caveat of the game...

BANKER'S OFFER

£13,500

... and it's an excellent prediction at 3.7%! Now would you like to replace HALF with TRIPLE, or would you like a sixth card amongst the usual options which'd be +£35,000?

I may have gone for the Bonus Box had the 250k stayed in play, but a Power 5 win is a massive longshot on my blue board and next to impossible on my red board.

Actually, no it isn't anymore, as I'm adding +£35,000 to my money menu.

NO DEAL to this, and let's continue with 21, 22, 20 and 18, please.
