I didn't say this earlier but Tami happens to be a huge supporter of the American Football team, New York Jets!
A few months ago, The Banker tried to get Randy Smith out of the game early by offering an incredible dream package for his team, Dallas Cowboys (
http://www.dond.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1356). Now he's trying it again with Tami.
The Banker is offering Tami an
Ultimate Jets Dream Package! This package includes:
- 2007 Jets Season Tickets!
- Luxury accomodations at the Jets' home games! (Tami lives in California)
- An autographed Jets jersey!
- An opportunity to meet the entire team!
- One season field pass!
It's a prize package worth $28,800!
If you thought that was amazing, The Banker is also throwing in $70,000 IN CASH!!!!
All together this offer totals, in cash and prizes...
Banker's offer:
$98,800!
This amazing package has almost brought Tami to tears! This is truly an phenomenal offer for her! It can all be hers with the press of a button.
But, there is $1,000,000 still on the board, with a $750,000 back-up. It's an incredible offer. Tami gives it a lot of thought and thoroughly consults her supporters on this offer.
Tami decided to say...
NO DEAL!
(Tami's husband promises to buy back the package if she wins a good sum of money!
)
Round Four: Three Cases:
24: $100,000
9: $1,000
1: $10
The Banker is back to what he knows best: Cash and lots of it!
Banker's offer:
$206,000!
NO DEAL!

NO DEAL!
Round Six: One Case:
5: $200,000
Banker's offer:
$186,000!
DEAL!
While not the best deal she could of made, Tami has scored a huge $186,000 payday! Certainly more than enough to buy back a dream New York Jets package!
She's happy, we're happy and lets make this deal even sweeter with a great Proveout!
Proveout Round One:
3: $10,000
Banker's offer:
$286,000!
Proveout Round Two:
4: $75
Banker's offer:
$385,000!
Proveout Round Three:
20: $50,000
OUCH! Had Tami played to the end, she would now be facing a $100 or $1,000,000 final two and this offer...
Banker's offer:
$550,000!
Tami wanted Case 8 as her case, the case she felt had one million dollars. She sold this case for $186,000. Did this case only have just $100 or did it contain the $1,000,000?
As Howie opened Case 8, Tami said, "Please don't show me a million dollars".
Howie showed to Tami and to the country...
8: $1,000,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TAMI SOLD OFF A CASE THAT HELD ONE MILLION DOLLARS!!! She has joined LaKisa Bright as the second person to hold the top prize in regular play! (
http://www.dond.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1263) Tami is absolutely gutted and crushed. But everyone assures her that $186,000 is still a great result, which it is! She'll feel better once the check comes in!
To prove it:
19: $100
Game Summary:
Peak offer: $550,000

Before Round Four starts, Howie has a little surprise for Nadamiso! She said earlier she would love money to see her family back in South Africa, but NBC decided to...
BRING THE FAMILY TO NADAMISO!!!!!
Nadamiso is downright overjoyed! It's a scene so emotional, even the models start crying!
It's truly a happy moment and to let everyone get a chance to get reacquainted, Howie decides to end the game and continue the action on Thursday!
And there you have it!
