In conventional play, I'd probably be looking for £30,000+ here. With these rules I'd be looking for double that at least, so an easy NO DEAL here and I'll continue with 18, 16 and 14.

What a brilliant bit of player-specific offering that £50,019 was!

Though obviously it wasn't enough for the third-offer Deal.

The sentimental card didn't work, and now the Banker's gotta hope you're going to start doing some damage...

18 - £250,000!! Aaaand there it is... :smt009

16 - 2p! Both ends of the board gone, and now we need £20k or less...

14 -

"He's going to wish he did!" And now he's just cackling away to himself... and now we're back to square one. But with a potential bonus...

That's actually a VERY generous offer for the board, but someone has to knock Archie off the top slot (and yes I realize that's only possible by risking one of the Top 2 amounts on Box 23 :eyes:

).

NO DEAL and let's continue the hunt for riches with 12, 8 and 6, please.

Righto, we need to recover from that miiiinor hiccup, an all blue round would be fab here...

12 - £250! That's one...

8 - £100! That's two... hopefully off three?!

Interesting board, and an interesting dynamic. Is Ben going to chase the game and a historic win, or will he opt for the more conventional approach and exploit Banker generosity? With the BB in the mixer as well...

The Banker knows you'd never buy Box 23 with £50k or more even if you did want to beat Archie, you're just in it for the Bonus Box and a good result! He reckons you could be very satisfied with one of these options...

I think I'd be gone with the flat £57k here.

**Joined:** Thu Jan 10, 2013 10:20 pm **Warnings:** 0

The first offer is not even 90% of the EV, and the 2nd offer is obviously less generous in terms of the EV, so NO DEAL.

2 and 4, please.

**Joined:** Wed Feb 01, 2006 6:19 pm **Warnings:** 0

All we need now are two boxes that aren't £50k and £75k, and you're guaranteed £50,000...

On the flip side, you could hit £125k off the board here and you're chasing £20k, I hope it doesn't come to that...

BANKER'S OFFER

... which could end up being £55,000 if you fancied the gamble on 23...

OH DEAR..............

Should've been a LOT less brave and not have been blinded by the leaderboard!

I'm happy to chase the £40,000 now though. NO DEAL and SWAP 10 for 9, please.

**Joined:** Wed Feb 01, 2006 6:19 pm **Warnings:** 0

Fingers crossed for you Ben, we just need to hope that one of 9 or 19 has the £20k...

... I can tell you it's not Box 9, as that's the £50...

... Box 19...

Box 23 now...

**Joined:** Wed Feb 01, 2006 6:19 pm **Warnings:** 0

This is what the line-up looks like...

DOUBLE (£40,000 & BB)
+£20,000 (£40,000 & BB)

MONEY BACK (£20,000)

HALF (£10,000)
NOTHING

We'll be off to the Bonus Box if you gamble and find one of the red cards, if not this will be the end of the game...

With £20,000 Ben, would you like to buy Box 23?

**Joined:** Thu Jan 10, 2013 10:20 pm **Warnings:** 0

Increasing that +£15,000 to +£20,000 definitely definitely makes me feel a lot less reckless in going for this, especially with the Bonus Box stipulation still in play, so DEAL.

Option 5, please.
