Will he still be happy with chasing this at the expense of what he called a good offer after these three boxes?

Box 3... £3,250. That's one safe!

Box 12... £35,000! One-box game in terms of big money...

Box 20...
£3,000. And it ain't that one!!

£10
£1,850
£2,000
£8,500
£50,000

The Banker says that was about the round you could reasonably have expected. He wants to tempt you into the fixed offer...

£17,500 FIXED

OR

BANKER'S OFFER

£9,250 + 23

Genuinely a difficult decision now... But I think I'm gonna have to duck out with a DEAL to £17,500!

Closing with 21, 22 and 2!

The fixed offer is locked in! You have £17,500 whatever happens, and this is what DID happen in your post-deal phase...

Box 21... £10! That's the floor raised...

Box 22... £50,000! That's the ceiling shattered!

Box 2... £8,500, for a hilariously anti-climactic £1,850 / £2,000 finish!

BANKER'S OFFER

£7,000 FIXED

OR a deliberate AMO inspired by history that needs to stop repeating itself...

BANKER'S OFFER

£1,933 + 23

For what little it's worth, your Box 1 had £1,850 and Box 16 had £2,000.

Now, we need a hypo pick on 1-7 for Box 23. We'll load it up as if you'd taken the alternative 5-box offer...

BOX 23 OPTIONS
18% - £1,665
68% - £6,290
168% - £15,540
218% - £20,165
318% - £29,415
+£19,000 - £28,250
ADD CAR - £9,250 + Nissan Leaf

Only three of those validate the Deal if you're framing it that way...

...well, the Box 23 offer would've been better as long as you could've sold the car!

Fair enough! The fixed offer was more than good enough to tempt me away from 23 anyway, cheers for the game! :smt023
