I'm another person who's been knocking around, but I just had to register to post my congratulations Aaron! It was a great game to watch, enjoy the money!

This sounds like a broken record but well done Aaron. I see this as revenge for Geordie's game, except you had amazing good luck this time.

Wow what a fantastic game! 7 blues in a row and not a single red. You were right to deal at £25k, I would of dealt at £30k but that's because I havn't got the guts to go on! Congratulations and spend your winnings wisely!

CONGRATULATIONS Aaron! What an amazing game!

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the girlish squeal that escaped Noel's lips after the second offer... I was half expecting him to get pompoms out and start jumping up and down!

I missed hearing the first part of the game, as I got a phone call JUST as it was starting - I didn't really pay much attention to what was being said to me, I was too busy jumping about the front room like a looney.

And I agree - who are we gonna look at now?!?!

Yep, first my beloved Marcus goes now Aaron!!!

But I still have Noel!

Well done Aaron, great game!

Thanks everyone - I'm flattered that so many lurkers have shown themselves!

Keep watching, there's some good shows coming up!

Well done Aaron! You played really well - hats off to you - people may be surprised by when you dealt, but you were astute enough to recognise the banker would probably overreact to any hits on the remains of Power 5 in the next round and give you a trap offer, forcing you to play on, perhaps until the end. Timed to perfection, it was an excellent show.

PS Wish I'd bet on David Cameron winning the Conservative leadership if the odds were as good as you said, bushy, I called it from the outset -if only for uni solidarity! But though I might have predicted Cameron, I think I would have totally screwed up if given the same tough calls you had to make in your show. I would quite possibly have been left with 50p if I'd played your game, as it were, and so the utmost respect playing it as you did. And a little bit of history with the massive first offer (though I think the 5 blue boxes in a row may have been done once before...? Noel is possibly mistaken on that bit, or maybe I'm just confused!) Were you at all tempted by the 1st offer? Or the 2nd? (I expect not with the £250k still in play).

Enjoy the winnings, I'm so pleased you had a good show!

And you kept a very cool head throughout, to unnerve the banker, so good work. May it rub off in future shows!

Gutted I missed Aarons show! I was working 3-10 and I ALWAYS try and wangle my break for when DOND was on... and got it at about 4.10 but then got called down cos it had gotten busy so I flipping missed it!!!

Well done Aaron though, glad you did so well!!

Apparently Shell in one of the very early shows had an even better all-blue first round - though she didn't manage 7 in a row!

The first offer, no; the second, massively! I played on because of (a) the £250k and (b) I didn't feel I had been up there long enough!

I dont think I would ever go on the 2nd offer, you're there for a show, you need to play at least some of it, lol.

I say you done the best you could.

I really thought you were mad to say deal.... until the next few boxes were open, lol.

Indeed 7 blues in a row was awesome especially as you had a blue in your box! What are the chances?! You looked delighted, and though £30k was huge, no-one could blame you for playing on. The £250k really does control the game, and while its there (with a bit of back up), on balance, I think its worth playing on.

And as you say keeping going for two more deals made it a great show, even if you did get £5k less. It was compelling viewing, hope you enjoyed watching it back yourself.

I'm sure I'll speak for everyone on this site when I say we'll miss you on our screens, bushy. Another great DoND character which has served to make the show such a resounding success. Having beaten him at his own game, maybe you could replace the Banker when he gets sick of losing!!

Looking forward to some more great future shows now - Lucy, Steve, Gary, J.T., Johnnie etc., lets get some more big wins people!!

Just watched your show bushy, and what a classic it was. You have established yourself as a DoND legend, and will live long in the record books. We may never see your opening offer (or the second one) beaten.

Great deal as well.

Enjoy your winnings, you certainly deserve them.

(I think you should put $10,000 of it on an entry to the World Series of Poker. After being a famous DoND name, you might join Doyle Brunson, Amarillo Slim, Phil Hellmuth and the rest as a poker legend too )

Can't add anymore to that, well done mate - i loved being part of it JT

The first show i've missed in god knows how long...it's put me at a really low ebb

I have to say it was quite surreal watching todays show, cos Aaron was a member on here before he appeared on the show.

Well I thought it was surreal....

Great game! It really was!

Hello there!

Aaron, not only did you break the record on dond for an all blue first round, this must be a record number of lurkers who have registered today because of you!

I am a huge fan of the show since the beginning and I was so thrilled for you, you were a fave of me and my mums, I even went round to hers to watch it - she was getting excited watching the repeat with me!!

I am so pleased you won £25k what a shrewd deal that was, I, probably like the rest of the nation thought you dealt too soon, how wrong we were!

Well done!!

I thought the best moment was when Aaron "went to the break" before Noel could say it...Fantastic stuff made me chuckle!!

I'm late to this thread but what a fantastic game Aaron... had me jumping around like a loon.

Congratulations mate... enjoy the money...

Had it been my game I would have totally made the wrong deal
