"Ben's planning to ignore the entirety of the game part of the game and just turn it into a lottery draw!"


Box 24 - £100! That'll help in any strategy.

Box 22 - £37,500.10! Top backup...

Box 20 - 1p! Top draw!

Box 18 - £15,000 is not the big one! Hope still firmly alive!

Your 11-box board is this:

50p
£20,001
£5
£10
£2,650
£1,750

£3,750
£7,400
£20,000
£24,500
£250,000


The Banker says this offer is your highest of the game so far and will also contain both odd and even numbers! ;)

To potentially wipe out the 0%... what's your prediction?

I was feeling down in the dumps, but then I took a break to play a trivia game and won $1.20 in real money. :D

Now I'm feeling pumped to take the Banker for an cool virtual £250,000. 8)

NO DEAL

16, 14 and 12, please.

Well, you're certainly going to be faced with an interesting question at 8-box if you keep the £250k there. ;)

Box 16 - £10! Fantastic!

Box 14 - £1,750! One away from a beautiful round with immaculate timing...

Box 12 -
£20,000 doesn't ruin it! In the context of this game, that's more than fine... still the jackpot is there, and there are two backups in the twenties to boot!

With the improving board and a refocused player, this is going to be a real dilemma for the Banker, especially with two offers to make!

50p
£20,001
£5
£2,650

£3,750
£7,400
£24,500
£250,000


BANKER'S OFFER

£19,000 ON 25

BANKER'S OFFER

£19,000 FIXED + SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE10+ 512GB



Take £19,000 and try and add a car or cash to it (whilst also risking it all)... or take £19,000 and add the latest Samsung Galaxy Note10+ with a massive 512GB of storage, worth £1,199 courtesy of John Lewis & Partners.

Deal or No Deal?

As much as I want to chase the 25% chance of leaving the £250k to the end (as I doubt it's worth going on if I'm just playing for the next offer), the board is just too risky, and I've seen too many crashes from similar 8 box positions recently. Also, I'm still posting from refurbished Samsung Galaxy S7, so a new phone is too tempting to pass up on. :P

Therefore, I will be sensible and DEAL the £19,000 + Samsung Note 10.

10, 8, 6, 2, 4 and 9 would've been next.

Option 5 for Box 23.

DEAL!

You laid out the probabilities perfectly, and now there's multiple questions to answer even as your winnings have been confirmed. Would you have hit that 25% chance? What if it was there at 5-box and not 8-box... would it have been enough of a reward? And what if you'd taken the other offer and put the money through that mixer on 25?

Box 10 - 50p, ideal start... in live play.

Box 8 - £20,001...

Box 6 - £7,400! Jackpot would've been there at 5-box with £24,500 as the one notable backup...

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£30,000 FIXED

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£27,500 ON 25 + SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE10+ 512GB



Box 2 - £24,500 and a one-box game for sure...

Box 4 - £2,650...

Box 9 - £3,750! For a £5/£250,000 climax, my goodness...

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£67,500 FIXED

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£67,500 ON 25 + SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE10+ 512GB



Well, either your initial draw or your beloved Box 19 has served you very well... and it was the latter, Box 15 had £5 all along! £250,000 was in Box 19!

If you'd taken on 25, you'd have had this...

0% (NOTHING)
48% (£9,120)
148% (£28,120)
198% (£37,620)
298% (£56,620)
-£21,000 (NOTHING)
ADD CAR (£19,000 + Renault Zoe)


There were 7 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

-£21,000 (NOTHING)
198% (£37,620)
ADD CAR (£19,000 + Renault Zoe)
48% (£9,120)
148% (£28,120)
298% (£56,620)
0% (NOTHING)

What do you know, blindly going to the end would've won me £250,000 today. :lol: :(

Sadly, KP's offers are far too good for me to consider doing that on this version unless I had a LOT of back-up. ;)

Thanks for hosting, KP. :smt023
