Damien's game today.

Noel has a thought for us based on the last couple of games, and how the Banker always aims to buy the box as cheaply as possible, but the last few games he has been buying the player. He talks about Dave's game and how he pitched the offer just on the edge of a difficult decision, and Dave dealt but could have walked away with a lot more

Had the £10,000 yesterday and before that the £50,000

Hopefully another good game today.

Damien has box 7 today.

Damien if from Leeds, although originally from Ireland. He talks about how he moved to Leeds to study, but found the course wasn't what he originally thought, and eventually trained to be an electrician. He has his wife in the audience for support

Here we go....

Round 1

Damien says that no boxes have any meaning to him apart from his box 7, which is his lucky number.

5 - £1 Claire

3 - £100 James

10 - £10 Dot

17 - £10,000 Lee

6 - £5,000 Sara

Banker time

Good start.

The Banker says he has found Damien's advice in the wings fascinating, and there is one sort of player that he isn't afraid of, and that is someone who always says no deal, no deal, he talks about Aaron who used to say that a lot, but in the past couple of days he has started studying the board. But with Damien he has always analysed the board.

Banker's offer:

£14,000

And a good first offer as well.

Damien says he wasn't expecting that.

Damien says

NO DEAL


Noel calls a break....

We're back

Round 2

Fred says he would like Noel's shirt, but Noel says he is not having any of his shirts! Fred says he is a poor man, and Noel says that tomorrow Fred can wear one of his shirts and can then keep it. He says it is his gardening shirt from home

19 - £50 Newbie Liz

2 - £500 Fred

22 - 10p Delroy

Banker time

Great round, great board!

What a board Damien has created says the Banker.

Banker's offer:

£19,000

And another good offer as well.

Advice at the second round... not looking good. He clearly can't see there is another round in it with all the power five in play, including a good fallback.

Damien says that he has never had £19,000 in his life. He goes to the wings and Aaron says he still has an amazing board, and Jodi says that she doesn't think they've seen a board like this since they've been on the wings. Damien's wife tells him to just take his time. Damien talks about how they are expecting their first child and how it changes your thoughts and perspective on things.

Damien says

NO DEAL

Round 3

8 - £20,000 Jhillu

11 - £15,000 Craig

Noel calls another break and gets Damien to do the link....

Nothing at all wrong with advice at the second round, I believe he already knew what to do but he was just making sure that his friends thought the same.

We're back
Last box before the Banker

14 - £3,000 Katie

Banker time

This probably will be £26,000 or somewhere very close to it.

Tuned in to see my lucky number on the pound table, I think the player should feel lucky today.

An all-red round, but probably not a lot to worry about says Noel. The Banker says he still has 3 of his power 5 there.

Banker's offer:

£21,000
