Jon's game today.

Noel hopes we've all had a great Bank Holiday... He talks about how the banker has changed things for the next month! He goes along the wings and tells all the ladies that they can relax, as they won't be playing for the next 2 week!! It's ONLY the men for the next 2 weeks, and then it will be 2 weeks of the ladies...

Boys boys boys!

Jon has box 18 today. Jonathon is from Essex, and is a management accountant, he explains the job is not very exciting, and he's not that good with numbers!!! He goes on to tell us he likes poker, and Noel asks for his poker face! Noel says that the banker likes to play against the poker players... Jon doesn't have a target, and will play his game based on the board...

The £35,000 was a blow, but after that it was great says Noel, he then introduces Jon's friend who is in the audience. Noel talks to the banker about poker, and the banker says he is not interested in poker anymore, as they allow anyone to play now!! Noel says the banker thinks that Jon will push up the avergage for the males, and do really well today...

Jon predicts that Noel will call a break, and Noel replies that if he wants a break he will call a break... Noel goes along the wings to ask if they would like a break, and then picks on Ron because of his loud shirt

Noel then calls the break...

We're back and it's time for the viewer competition...

Today is box 2 containing £20,000


Back to Jon's game....

Last box before the banker...

Jon says that £10,000 down now will be a good box...

9 - £100,000 OH NO shouts Noel...

Banker time

Jon talks about it's ideal really to keep either the £75,000, or the £100,000, and he still has the £75,000 so he is comfortable at the moment...

That woman from PJ/Jeannie/Mark's game is back in the audience! I think she's trying to rival Suezan for most pilgrim appearances!

Jon says
