The Banker is utterly furious. He honestly thought after his game with Dan he was getting his mojo back, but here you are, ruining his joy...

BANKER'S OFFER

£75,000

Some games go his way, some games don't. This is one of the latter group of games.

What a wild ride of a round that was. £1.5m still on that board, it's not even that unstable... somehow, even £75,000 at 11-box (!) doesn't feel enough. NO DEAL!

13, 15, 19.

It certainly seems it. AND you've still got the replay... How long can you keep that equipped as a weapon?!

13 - £725,000!! Gone as soon as it arrived :smt009 :smt009 There's still more opportunities to transform one of your remaining amounts into something that size or even higher!

15 - 50p is excellent news here!! An important box here, merely for colour balance...

19 -
£100,000! Uncomfortable but... not horrific? This is clearly a point to consider using your replay. The shift's 1-8 at this stage...

...I was thinking earlier that at this rate I might not even want to take on 23 with the replay.

That, I think, frees me up to use it in the game. REPLAY, same boxes.

Out it comes!

** REPLAY **

Let's hope it doesn't go to waste, spoiler boxes at the ready...

13 -
£725,000!! The very same again!! :smt019


15 -
£1! At least we know boxes were shuffled! Another blue now please...


19 -
£425,000!! What a disgustingly cruel replay :( :cry: Thanks to Twelve Shift, this game is far from over, so let's have that tenth shift, 1-8 please...

Need to pull this back now with a quality shift...

... but we can't even do that right now. £5 becomes 48p and a third huge downshifter! Boy are we playing a different game here... BT

As you can imagine, the Banker is beside himself after that round! He was very tempted to throw in a joke offer here to spite you, but he knows in reality that's not going to achieve anything...

BANKER'S OFFER

£29,500


OR

BANKER'S OFFER

£49,500 & NO UPSIDE BOX 23

EV of that conditional is well into the 30s so that's the tempter here... it's such a strange board with so many huge shifters but the positive ones offer SO much upside that I'm going to dare it, NO DEAL!

11, 7, 9.

Playing on, in the hope of extracting at least one more great upshift out of this! To do so, we've got to avoid your big three now...


11 - 50p!! Yes!! Think it's spoiler box time again...

7 -
£500!! That seals the colour balance! I swear if this is 1p or 48p...


9 -
£15,000!! No but WHAT a round!! We're in for either a huge upshift or a huge downshift... This is going to be massive, your eleventh shift is 1-5. Make. It. Count.

...WOW.

I think I played on out of FOMO with the upside from... well, that.

Double 1.

Oh my goodness.

What a situation. With the worst-case scenario on the conditional still being in the territory I was in before that round, I feel like that bit is playing with house money if the EV gain over the fixed offer is right (and it is), and I feel like I've done enough now. ;)

DEAL the conditional! 5, 3, 1 the proveout three. Hypo-swap for 17 would be accepted, obvs.

It's a DEAL for £175,000... ish! Hopefully you can keep hold of that full amount, but first we've got a proveout to mop up...

5 - 48p would have been perfect!

3 - 1p!! Oh dear christ, this could be an insane escape for the Banker...

1 - £87,500... DAVID!! It would have been the 10% perfect round :shock: :shock: :( :(

£200,000 would have played £666,666 in arguably the biggest climax we'd ever have had...

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£415,000


OR

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£666,666 & NO UPSIDE BOX 23


Beyond our wildest imaginations, you couldn't have played for that, but it's the magic that can come out of a Super 6/Twelve Shift combo!

Box 10 was on the table, but true to form you'd have swapped for Box 17... which contained £200,000! You would have give away the £666,666... :shock: :shock: Crazy throwing around numbers like this in Aaron's DoND!

Anyway, we have some business to tend to here...

Well at least I got that far! :smt046 I wouldn't have taken shift 12 purely because there was only so far for those to even go up! :P

... it's your no-upside Box 23:

    MONEY BACK (£175,000)
    MONEY BACK (£175,000)
    MONEY BACK (£175,000)

    HALF (£87,500)
    FLOOR (£35,000)

In isolation, all wonderful sums of money. In retrospect, we really don't want to add to the pain here, please land on a Money Back...
