That's so hard... I'd be tempted to go on I think.

Thoughtful music again. Noel says that could be a lifeline for Colin and it's the highest offer of the game so far. Colin says that his wife is probably halfway on the journey to the Dream Factory now. Noel says it's now the balance point of regret - would he regret dealing and finding he could have had more, more than no dealing and winning £1? Colin says he wants to get the most out of the game

A tester of an offer. Guessed he'd deal. Oh well we'll see whether he did the right thing.

I think any of those last four offers could have been taken, but that was the most clear-cut deal of them all. He needed to take out both blues to get a higher offer.

Now watch as the Banker throws in £26,000 on a £1/£75k hypo finish, followed by a Noel guilt trip.

Noel says he's relieved for some reason.

8 - Louise - £15,000

20 - John - £1

He's leaving his lucky number 3 until the end.

7 - JC - £50,000

Banker time with £750 and £75,000 remaining...

Noel said if he didn't find £75k, it'd be a disaster... now he's saying that Colin might be alright!!

Inflated proveout offer. Don't believe it for a minute.

Yay

Noel opens Colin's box 10 and reveals £750

**Joined:** Sat Jan 28, 2006 8:00 pm **Warnings:** 0

I nearly called it.

That was virtually Lynne's game but with a less risky player - and with the ending, good thing too!

The audience chant "COLIN" again

The other box - box 3 - Ashleigh - £75,000

Noel said he doesn't want to pry too much, but he thinks the money Colin dealt at will make a huge difference to Colin and his family's life, and he agrees. Noel said he had a funny feeling he had a target as he needed the money - and Noel said he probably did have a target. Noel says it's a great result

A decent enough game and player. With a succession of decent sums offered and ever diminishing reds I guessed the £22k would take him out. I thought it was worth going on but even I didn't believe the £26k proveout offer.

And it all turned out ok in the end. So ginger Shropshire farmer wins big. Well done Tom .... oops I mean Colin

What can I say, last week feels like months ago! The luck continued today, another game with a big block of high reds surviving for ages. We've seen games like that have horrible crashes but luckily not today, Colin dealt at a great five figure amount and avoided that dreaded blue box. Well done, Colin, not an OPW but it sure felt like one!

Really enjoyed that! Can't say I particulalry liked him from his time on the wings but he was fantastic today! He did really well keeping his hands close to his chest and not giving away his utility curve to the banker. I was actually thinking how similar it was to Sheran's game, expcept the offers weren't quite as good and the 1p had gone!

By 5-box it was looking a but precarious and the £22,500 was more than I expected so really wanted him to deal there, I expected 75k/blue to be a lower offer, so in reality only keeping two of the reds at 2-box would guarantee a bigger offer. Indeed it was 6k more than Anne got offered with 75k/50k instead of her 100k/75k so that shows how low her offer was!

I know a lot of people are saying the 26k proveout offer was inflated, was I'm not so sure - Shaz got offered only a grand less with a worse blue in active play after all! But I doubt he'll be bothered at all missing out on £3,500 when he sold £750 for £22,500!

And I sincerely doubt he'd have risked doing a swap worse than Artak's as well!

Well doen Colin!

That game was awesome.

Colin was a great player, a really nice guy who deserved the £22,500. Well done!!

I would've gone on but that's 2 games in a row where the player has won over 20k.
