Well I msut say I was looking at the strength of the game and imagining being there and no dealing £30,000 even though it's a nice sum of money but I don't know if I would have the guts to if I was on the actual show. I think I may have gone on one more and bowed out at £50,000. People put so much emphasis on the £250,000 but anything could have happened. We've seen how quickly games can turn around. Imagine if she'd carried on and worst case scenario she went away with 10p. I personally enjoyed today's show a lot.
Assuming you ignored that wise winger, the only way she could have won any of the blues, is if she went all the way to the end. She was at eight-box which means she still had two offers before the final box. Even if she took out the
TOP THREE (1/8x1/7x1/6= 1/366), a
3% chance she would have still had a board with £35,000 and £50,000, which would have produced an offer around £10,000, only a third of the measly £30,000 that she took. She had a 3% chance of that, and a 93% chance of £10,000 PLUS!
true, just a shame you got your maths a bit wrong, sorry to contradict but its a 1/56 chance of taking out the top 3
