I know this is sadistic, but some of us will be chuckling if she has the proveout of 100k and 250k.

To put things into perspective the Suffolk couple who went public with their Euro Lottery win earlier today have (in financial terms) done the equivalent of appearing on every DOND show for the next 1 year and 9 months, winning the £250,000 on each occasion!

Round 6 - proveout

Antonia is crying a lot now. :( :cry:

Box 6 with Edd - £250,000 :D

What a shame you did not find that earlier, says Noel. Antonia says she feels better now.

Box 2 with Paul - £50,000

Box 8 with Janna - £15,000

Banker time with £50 and £100,000 remaining.

Banker's offer would've been:

£26,000

What extra £83k are you talking about?

No matter what was in her box, you could not say that she should have gone to the end because no dealing the two-box offer would have been reckless.

Box 14 with Noel contains the £100,000.

Antonia does a high-five sweep of the wings, and says she'll miss everyone on the show.

I think that the offer of the Banker's gamble would have been a little cruel (or at least inappropriate) in these circumstances given the important things she had already earmarked the £17,500 for.

She probably would have taken the five box offer or the 2 box offer.

Dealing when FOUR of the power five in play is most times not a good thing to do... even when there is a good fallback in play.

Well it had been a very long time since a third-round deal and with the way she was going about it, it was pretty inevitable that it was gonna happen. Such a cautious deal that was...I don't think we'll see that again anytime soon, I bet tomorrow's player will have more courage and crash to a blue win.

Thankfully she didn't have one of the power five in her box, as then it probably would have been more tears...

All I can say is thank goodness she didn't have £100k or she probably would've burst into tears like this girl and I so want to forget that game.

Considering the rather dismal increase after a pretty good round 3, I'm fairly sure that she wanted to deal 15k, but felt pressured into going on. Yes, it was cautious, but the money clearly meant a lot to her, so we can't criticise her for that.

And we have seen cautious deals that have come off far worse than this...and I won't say any of those names...

I think you mean especially when there is good fallback in play, and I do agree that the deal was cautious and it was worth going on with the board.

The odds were definitely in favour of going on at five-box, but it was the unlikely scenario of having the blue in her box with four reds at five-box.

Certainly you could not blame her for dealing at the two-box especially after the round did not go her way, you would not want to go away with peanuts.
