RifiutoJust like Soraya yesterday, Alexandro intends to stick with the box that he was given. Will that turn out to be a wise move?

Without "Che jella sia" to fall back on I'd probably take this, but with it I'd definitely go on.

Today's newbie is introduced before he opens his box (as is custom here).

APRI UN BLU. The Banker must now reveal the location of one of the blue amounts.

€5Stipulation: He only has to open 1 box before he gets another offer.
With Che jella sia still in play, this is a somewhat tricky decision. I'd probably take the offer, though, as the Banker may very well stick or decrease the offer even if a blue is found.
The giant horseshoe is brought back out again.

€30,000 Alexandro now faces a headache of a decision. In addition to deciding whether or not to take the next offer, he also must decide whether or not to play Che jella sia. The professor points out that the mean is €20,000 whether he plays Che jella sia or not.
Stipulation: He has to open 2 more boxes before he gets another offer.
That would be a cast-iron Deal for me if I went this far.
Alexandro says:
Rifiuto He chooses not to play Che jella sia.

Poor decision-making on Alexandro's part, both in declining the offer and putting himself in a more volatile situation by not playing Che jella sia.

PACHITOSThat means Alexandro is leaving with either pocket change or a joke prize now. Flavio wants to gets this over with so badly that he forgets about the offer that the Banker promised here.

STAMPELLAAlexandro sure could use a Box 21 in this situation. Who knows, they may introduce such a twist next season.
Alexandro obviously says:
