Total winnings this month were
48% of what they would've been if all the boxes were opened, so the Banker beats the players this time around, but I don't think most of the players care too much.
2/5 people would've benefited from dealing rather than opening their box.
6/15 people would've benefited from opening their box rather than dealing.

Miscellaneous Stats:
Before Kristie's game, the last time someone dealt £50,000+ at 5 box was January 2012, where ironically
4 people dealt over £50,000 due to the astonishing luck in that month as well.
Several massively against the odds events occurred in Max's game:
Keeping the Top 7 to 10 box:
1 in 1,421.2Keeping the Top 3 as the last 3 boxes:
1 in 1,540Had Max used the offer button at 10 box, he would've been GUARANTEED to receive the highest 10 box offer of all time as his 11 box offer was £28,000 and he found a blue in the intervening box (highest prior was Mystic Rich's £20,000 from March 2007)
Rebecca had an all-red 7 box, a
1 in 516.4 chance. Had she used the button at that stage, she would've been GUARANTEED the highest 7 box offer of all time as she was offered £40,000 at 8 box and found a blue in the intervening box (highest prior was Hugo and Dawn's £40,000 in February). The odds of removing the 5 remaining blues from 12 box which Rebecca did to achieve this is
1 in 792.
The odds of finding a maximum of £10 in the opening round as Harry did is
1 in 4,389.
