We've just seen Hunter make history, but BEN is now out to play another Purpliser game, and he doesn't need reminding that every game is different!

They all start like this, though...

1p
10p
50p
£1
£5
£10
£25
£50
£100
£250
£500
£750

£1,000
£3,000
£5,000
£10,000
£15,000
£20,000
£35,000
£50,000
£75,000
£100,000
£150,000
£250,000


...that is, until we start moving things around once again with that Dulux Purpliser. Pick five reds, five blues, and five greens - all 1-12. Then it'll be time to manipulate them!

On the red side... £35,000, £150,000, £250,000, £50,000, £100,000 :shock: :shock:

The blues that are apparently about to get a rocket-fuel injection... £1, £100, £25, £10, £5.

Those all-important greens... 0%, 25%, 10%, 30%, WILD!

Well, if you want to keep the path to replicating Hunter open, you could do, or maybe you want to close it to reduce the pressure? Either way, a ton of money is being shifted around here, and this is a massive decision...

Well the reds certainly fell in my favor, but sadly the greens did not.

Unlike It's Your Game, the same amount of money will be in the board regardless, so there's no rational reason not to go for the maximum stability. I will make a slightly risky play with the WILD, however.

£250,000; £1; 30%

£150,000; £5; WILD

£100,000; £10; 25%

£50,000; £25; 10%

£35,000; £100; 0%

That is an entertaining time to go for an anti-Hunter approach!

The WILD turns out to be 31%, and that leaves you with this board when all is said and done...

1p
10p
50p
£75,001
£46,505
£25,010
£5,025
£50
£100
£250
£500
£750

£1,000
£3,000
£5,000
£10,000
£15,000
£20,000
£35,000
£45,000
£75,000
£75,000
£103,500
£175,000


With that board duly squished, I can reveal that Box 21 is yours. Five to open in round one... good luck!

Let's hope the odds fall in my favor when they really matter as I begin with 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9, please.

Box 1 - £50, nice!

Box 3 - £5,000, also good!

Box 5 - £250! Fantastic!

Box 7 - £75,001, the biggest Purplised blue but by no means the only monster that side...

Box 9 - £20,000 completes a solid start!

...the Banker says this offer would have been higher but for your strategy being so cautious and implying that'll translate into the rest of your gameplay, seeing as that in reverse happened with Hunter!

BANKER'S OFFER

£8,500



Not that you'll be complaining about the resultant money menu after just a 6% miss!

It looks like the Banker (wrongly!) has me down as a cautious player. Need I remind him that in the last 3 forum games I played, I won £100k, £70k and $583k, two of which were from ultra-generous late game offers while the other was from going all the way despite a generous set of offers.

NO DEAL, and let's continue with 11, 13, 15 and 17, please.

We've got a fascinating dynamic here!

Box 11 - 10p! That'll help you.

Box 13 - £3,000 will as well!

Box 15 - £175,000! Well, the bad news is that's the jackpot gone. The good news is that you did everything in your power to mitigate its impact.

Box 17 - £1,000! What a curious board this is now!

With the board being so stable, I can see him going up here despite the loss of the top amount.

He certainly did go up.

£13,000



He went WAY up! Clearly trying to catch you out there and it apparently worked!

That -£7,000 is definitely going to weigh on your game, but at £13,000, Deal or No Deal?

Hopefully I win enough that the option will be a trivial loss.

NO DEAL, and let's continue with 23, 24, 22 and 20, please.

Well, it was for Hunter, and your money menu is eerily like his at the moment!

Box 23 - £35,000, which is somehow only the sixth-highest amount you had on that board...

Box 24 - £750! Just four real blues left!

Box 22 - £5,025, which is somehow the fifth-lowest amount you had...

Box 20 - £45,000, which was the fifth-highest! What a surreal board you've created.

"Funny game, this," the Banker remarks. "Hunter's strategy worked to perfection. Now you do the exact opposite and that's working out as well!"

He adds that this offer is higher than Hunter got at this stage... but what will your prediction be?
