That's got to be a BIG error I feel.....

SLUDGE

Round 6 - proveout

Box 18 with Jo - £15,000

Box 22 with Versila - £35,000

Box 16 with Zeny - £5,000

Banker time with £3,000 and £50,000 remaining.

SLUDGE

Banker's offer would've been:

£17,500

SLUDGE

Noel reveals £3,000 in Lamin's Box 19.

SLUDGE

Box 21 with Richie contains the £50,000.

That's another huge sum Richie has had, says Noel.

Noel says Lamin has £19,000, and he will be spoken about for a long time to come.

So Noel appears to have forgotten Mark De Sousa's *name*, but not his *game*. hmm...

Anyway, hats off to Lamin for a record-breaking game and for £19,000. And for the second day in a row, I'm off to shovel some coal and fire up the VHS

OK, so what were the odds of taking out 10 blues in-a-row from 18-box in today's game?

This will probably get my vote for Game Of The Month... only probably because of the "10 blues" in a row.

1 in 3,978.

Wow, that's almost twice the number shows that have been on so far. Also, as a percentage that comes to about 0.025% :shock:

Yesterday was interesting enough, this was astonishing.

Very tricky to play a game like that, but he made good calls, and in the end only going to the end would have prevented a win in the £20k bracket.

Talk about using up your bad luck at once though, that opening run of boxes...

Even more improbable, considering the last red before the 10-blue run was the £1,000, he actually took 11 out of the bottom 12 from 19-box.

Which is 1 in 6,298.

Nothing short of monumental.

Wow!-Well done Lamin-on going in the record books...10 blues in a row!!
yesterdays game was fantastic-with the lowest 3 blues taken out in the speed rnd.
this,for me,topped it-and i would say its the game of the month,so far.2 feelgood,
astonishing,well played games-in a row!!...great stuff... :smt038

*opens calculator*
(1 / 6,298) * 100 = 0.01587805652588123213718640838361% :shock:

I'd imagine that's a pretty damn solid reason for it to be game of the month.

I only hope we don't get a game with 10 reds in a row.

Amazing game. The only downside was that he didn't deal and have 10p in his box which meant he could never have hit the magical 11 blues in a row.

Another Pointless fact: Both Lamin's took out the £100,000 in the 16th box they picked! :lol:

The odds of matching up a box pick can't be that astronomical though...
