Sarah goes to the wings for advice and is told to play on.

Sarah says

NO DEAL

The power of this game is in the low reds. Although it is a two-box game, the presence of the five lowest reds is a bulwark against a crash.

Round 4

14 - £250 Gillian

Sarah goes to Rob next, but he says he thinks he has a red so she changes her mind. She then has doubts about changing her mind so goes with the box anyway.

10 - £100,000 Rob

18 - £5,000 Elaine

Banker time

That was a horrible round says Noel

Banker's offer:

£4,000

Drat, drat and double drat!

The show today is slightly scaring me.

Four grand is not especially generous here...

Sarah goes to her fiance as she says she really needs advice now. He tells her it is really dangerous now and that is a lot of money. Sarah agrees it is a lot of money and that they could do a lot with that. Sarah says she is so scared she could play on and destroy the game, but then again it is only 3 boxes. Her fiance says he wouldn't do it. Sarah says if she takes out the 3 highest she will be chasing £3,000, but then again she could have a high amount in her box.

Sarah says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break....

That 8-box board in full:




£1

£10
£50




£1,000
£3,000

£10,000
£15,000


£50,000




Still more reds than blues - but the chances of a big win are slim now...

But surely Sarah's luck can't end up being quite as rotten as Andrea's?

I sense that most players cannot read the board and do not know a great offer from a rubbish one. This was the latter and it got considered.

We're back

Round 5

22 - £1,000 Sue

Sarah's fiance picks box 6 next, and they nearly go for it until they all realise that is one of Sarah's boxes to be saved. Sarah decides to go with it anyway.

6 - £10,000 Lucy

20 - £50 Newbie Dean

Banker time

So am I right in thinking the offer is £7,000.

I would play on here because the £3k/£15k finish is a winner. She won't though.

Sarah's fiance says that they are on borrowed time now and they can't keep playing. Noel asks why and he says that he doesn't trust the £50,000 and the £15,000. Sarah keeps saying that is £7,000, and it is £7,000, but then you are only here once. The Banker calls and Sarah's fiance asks if they are making him nervous, the Banker flips it over and tells Tom that he will show them how confident he is, and if they play on he will allow them to play on 1-box at a time. Sarah goes to the wings for advice, and Ziggy says he finds it hard to offer her advice as he would play on normally, but he would hate to see her heartbroken. The Banker calls and says that Sarah now has 30 seconds to make up her mind. Her fiance says he would deal as he knows the next box is £50,000.

Sarah says

DEAL

This is one of those games that has promised rather more than it has delivered, isn't it?

She was indecisive enough that she had to take it. I wouldn't have shown that kind of weakness.

Round 6 - Proveout round

19 - £3,000 Wilf

Banker time


Banker's offer would've been:

£10,000
