I'll begin with some obvious ones:

A first or second round deal.

All blue/red 11-box.

All Hobo Five/Power 5 final five. (Closest we got to the latter was Daniel).

Sorry if it seems a bit vague, but could anyone else say what gameplay events, or the like, that haven't yet occured on DOND.



And one that obviously won't happen, but one I always wondered about and imagined occuring, was a situation where at the end of a game there is left, let's say, £10 and £250. On the table is £10, but the other box on the wings contains NOT £250, but an amount that has been opened earlier in the game, thus creating two of the same amounts present in the same game and rendering it void...

A first or second round deal. - Hopefully that will NEVER happen. That is the only thing that I hope doesn't.

All blue/red 11-box. - Could happen but the chances are very rare. As like it is for all power five (either end) going in the first round.

All Hobo Five/Power 5 final five. (Closest we got to the latter was Daniel). - If it does happen with all power five (red ones) in play at five box, going on is a must.

Forgot to mention this also rather obvious event. Closest we got to the power 5 obliteration (barring Nan!) were Rob (Dec 05) and Otis (Sep 06) off the top of my head... they both had a £20,000 game after 7 boxes.

And a female (name ecapes me now) took out the entire Hobo 5 in the first 6 boxes... after losing the £250,000 first box!

Well, we can no longer add live shows and celebrity shows to the list...

I don't think anyone's ever dealt at 11-box and had the £250,000 in their box.

Has anyone ever dealt at 11-box and then accepted a banker's gamble?

Talking of banker's gambles, has there ever been a proper one before 2-box? I'm sure there has, although I can only think of examples where the banker's allowed the question to be asked again (e.g. Mary, Huddy, etc), which isn't really a banker's gamble.

Something else to add to the list is the banker making the same offer all the way through the game and/or offering entirely non-monetary things (e.g. swaps). There have been games which have come close to that though.

You guys are forgetting one CRUCIAL event....

Odds of a board just being 1 colour at 11-box are 1 in 7,759,752


Odds of that are 1 in 26334



The odds of that happening hopefully are zero.

I think Noel's mentioned it enough to last a lifetime.

I think he was even going on about it in his preamble in my show...

And your's weren't even that long after Alice's!

Indeed - I think he was saying how it was nearly show 1,000 and 2 women had won it and 0 men had (or something like that).

Well if the male players were more brave enough... e.g. the previous Tony... Rob from last year... etc......

When the show finally comes to an end as it will in some years, I hope that 0 will be in double figures.

There really isn't a fat lot to add is there?

This would be about 3 pages long in 2007 time...

I suppose we could add swapping a power 5 amount for 1p... or vice versa... unless even this has happened...

It's funny you should say that - I just did a search and found a similar thread from 2007, that's 3 pages long! viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9510

Didn't Matty from Easter '08 do that?

Yes...it was the £50,000 swapped for 1p which he won.

If he didn't swap, I very much doubt he would have won the £50,000.

When players have accepted the swap offer at the first offer, never has the £250,000 been given away. Close to it was the £100,000... though, I can't remember the players name.

"Psychic" Sarah swapped 10p for £250k (albeit after being given the SWAP at the first offer)

I should have said at the 2 box scenario, although Matty of course does count. Was that also the worst ever 1p win in terms of how the player took it? I expected him to take a blue win quite easily when I viewed him on the wings...

Yes I believe it was. From what I remember.

Lisa from Sep 08 swapped the £100k for £5k.

That's probably who I meant.

How about an offer before any boxes are opened (which G last year hinted at)?

The main one apart from the obvious male quarter-millionaire which conceivably could happen is a banker's gamble before 2-box.
