I would have dealt £6750 at 5-box. Had I gone on, I would also have dealt £23,750 at 2-box.

Possibly £9,000, perhaps more likely £6,750.

I would've dealt £23,750 at 2-box.

The reason I say that is because I would've never had the 6-box 9k offer because I would've no-dealed the 8-box offer of 5k so quickly that there wouldn't have been the opportunity to tell me about the 6-box offer. And £6,750 was worth gambling with in my opinion, so I would've carried on and hoped to save the 75k until the end.

If I did have the 9k offer at 6-box, I would've no dealed that anyway.

Same here - that was my thinking too.


Likewise, 9K for me also.

I'd have dealt the 4-box offer of £20,000. Knowing the banker, you'd get a joke offer if you left 10k or 20k with a blue...

Same as Jean today, although I may have gone on one more box before choosing the Love God, in which case the offer would've been a lot more than 20k as I would've been left with 10k, 20k and 100k. I would've dealt any offer of around 35k+ at that point.

I'd have done the same as Jean and dealt for £20k at 4-box.

It gets a bit complicated in weeks like this becuase I never know when I would have played the special box (or whatever it was called), but I'd have done the same as Jean if I'd played it at that moment - the only way I could see a lot more in the game was to win £100k in the box backed up with another red at 2-box (since I'd be loathe to not going for the £100k with a 5-figure back-up unless the offer was huge which it rarely is as they want you to go for it in that situation) - and also loathe to gambling £20k-ish on £100k/blue too.

I always say for this game that I'd tell the Banker overtly I'd save the extra offer right to the very end.

If I did that, opening in otherwise the same order, I'd probably have got a £40k offer at three-box! With this offer set, same as Jean, though there's a case for going on.

I'd have dealt £14.5k in Justin's game. If I got the BG at 2-box (which would be entirely feasible), I'd have taken it and won £75k.

I'm fairly sure I'd have dealt at 7-box for £14,500. Had I been offered the banker's gamble, I'd have declined it and kept the dosh.

Jean - £20,000 at 4-box.
Justin - £14,500 at 7-box and decline the banker's gamble if offered.

I would've dealt the £18,500 today, but I doubt I would've accepted the Bankers Gamble. Often I would, but didn't fancy it today for some reason!
