Simmo's game today.

Noel talks about the last few games and how the value of £7,500 is becoming his new £26,000 in getting contestants to deal early...

He then goes through the wings to give us some interesting facts on the contestants...

It's Simmo!
I hope he brings one of the big reds he opens so often on the wings to the table.
Come on Simmo!

Well yesterday he had the highest of the blues, day before, the big one, £250k.

Simmo has box 13 today. Simmo/Dave is in accounts for BP... Noel then gives us a story about how Simmo was in a club when a girl was flung at him and he was supposed to catch her but didn't!! He was then later tied to a tree and then spent 2 years trying to trace the girl, who he did and is now with him and in the audience for support today.

Here we go...

Oh my god we've never been this early Wait a minute the time is fecked up

Banker time

But presumably doesn't mention that the two £7,500 Dealers would have won less by playing on. Even if the second one in particular was a shocking Deal in even my opinion.

£7,500 opener coming up?

A great start says Noel, and he asks the banker if he is in his happy place, he replies no he's in his office, his happy place is in Amsterdam

The banker talks about how many 1p winners we've had this year so far, and thinks the current group are grasping the moment (think a few here won't think that )

The banker has a gift for Simmo as Derek has been hogging the wig, and it's his very own Shawaddywaddy wig



Banker offers

£12,500

Simmo says

NO DEAL

I suspect some people on here have never heard of Shawaddywaddy

Oh it's not £7,500. That's a proper opening offer, not quite in early 2007 generosity levels considering the board but not a zillion miles away...

Next round

15 - £750 Janna

14 - £3,000 Emma

Noel calls a break before the next box...

Now that's what I call a start. Top eight in play at the first adbreak.

Will it be maintained? And more to the point, will it be maintained longer than the player's willingness to gamble?

Hopefully both will stop at the same time - that's the way the OPWs come! (And the answer to those questions can be 'never'.)

We're back
Last box before the banker

Noel tells us that Simmo was tidied up during the break and his wig groomed by the makeup artist


4 - £250,000 Angela

Banker time

Yep, I was thinking that too. Back to decent opening offers again..

..Youch! The £250k just went as I type this..)

Offer may go down a lil now.. maybe £9k?

Oh well the 100k is still there as long as he dosen't deal at a derisory offer

Simmo tells Noel that the banker needed a little something to make him happy, and that would have cheered him up!

The banker says this is tricky now, and is a little confused who he is playing now Simmo is in his wig...
