Obviously Kelly's Deal is a big talking point, especially as she had THE BEST 11 BOX THIS YEAR and yet she still dealt a measly £20,000, BY FAR the least generous offer of the game. So, what do you think about it?

Anyone who knows me knows what I voted for. :smt011

P.S. I replaced HORRIBLE with another option to honor the requests of the majority of the forum.

I'm more inclined to call it a board misread or blind targetism than anything else!

Given the 14-box generosity and the small uplift after an all-blue, it was the most Richard-esque of all the post-Richard controversial Deals, but Kelly didn't have the entire P5 so I won't say her deal was more cautious than his (and there are plenty that have been).

Sensible and reasonable go hand in hand for me.

Of the options available, I'd say it was a cautious deal. :smt023

A few of us who were once part of the furniture, once stalwarts of the grand and extravagant, exuberant and thriving forum, have receded back into the walls, still faintly visible, still here as poignant, reminding relics of an era gone by; but most of us have vanished, forever immersed in the mists of time.

100% very (x unlimited) cautious. Dealing with all power five still in play is never a good thing to do...

That's quite an interesting point of view. Personally I thought she had 4 of the Power 5 remaining....could be wrong though.

Also when I looked at the time at about 4:04, I expected a first round deal, really. I was surprised at the timing of the first break too; 4:16 when it's usually 4:08. That to me meant something extra was bound to happen later on - maybe one box at a time at 5-box, or something. So I was disappointed when that didn't happen either, to be totally frank.

:ponder:

Cautious but not the worst by any means. Wilf in a specials week dealt the same amount and had the £35k still there!!
