Banker's offer:

Never mind, no deal.

12, 15, 6, 2 and 22 please.

12 - £10,000.
15 - £3,000. A couple of low reds to start, worse here than normal games but still OK.
6 - £250. And there's the first blue, even though it's a high one!
2 - £10! Can you complete the pattern with a tiddler?
22 - £500. Nope, but a high blue will surely do!

Some of the middle ground's gone here, so this is an important shift early in the game...

I'll go with 6-10.

That removes £1,000, so this really is important... any drop will worsen your odds, but any increase will have a nice impact...

No deal, and 9, 14 and 4 please.

9 - £100. You're taking out the bottom left corner alright - top left would be ideal though!
14 - 1p! Right on cue! That's the original, we now want the duplicate to go...
4 - £1,000 (1p)!! UNBELIEVABLE ROUND!!

Wow... I didn't fix that I swear... two numbers for this important shift, and remember you still have the top seven in play and a better than 20% chance of a huge increase!

14 to 4 please.

You're shifting £250,000!!!

This will either be catastrophic or incredible.

New value...

...

£725,000!!!

THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

The Banker points out the only other time we've had a sum above £250,000 shifted into play it went in the next round and the game ended horribly...

£26,000

I'd consider that if the QM was still there, but now it's almost trebled, gotta be no deal...

1, 16 and 10 next please.

1 - £1! What a board!
16 - £50! IT GETS BETTER!
10 - £35,000... it's still OK!

What a position, and what a nervous shift...

I'll shift 1 to 11...

The shifted amount... must not be £725,000.
It is...

...£50,000.

If this goes up by any degree at all, you will be looking at an even bigger chance of a huge increase.

The new amount... is...

...

...£82,000!!! IT GETS BETTER!!!

Banker's offer:

£50,000

Wow...It's just over half the average I think, and the £625k gap and £55k gap both worry me a little.

If I take out the £725k though, I'd still have some huge raises there, and could shift back up to a significant amount. If I avoid it, the offer shouldn't go down much.

With hopefully another good shift on the way, I'm going to no deal...

21, 3 and 11 please.

Clearly, placing your faith in the fourth shift as much as the board... certainly, you have good reason to be optimistic about the shift, but how long can your momentum continue? We're about to find out... three boxes now.

21 - £100,000! There goes one huge shift opportunity.
3 - £750!
11 - 10p!!

Only two blues left and £725,000 is still in the game... but there is a one-in-eight chance of losing it right here! Good luck on this shift... there is a three-in-eight chance of a huge increase.

The shift will be 3 to 8.

Here we go...

Being shifted...

...

50p!!

If this is a huge increase - and there is a very good chance - you will be bringing in £65,000 to the table.

Banker's offer:

If it goes down I'd value the board at not much less than £65k, possibly £50k again. If I was shifting one the £725k that would be an instant deal though. Let's see, no deal.
