yay - thankyou Betty

Fourth round...

9 - £5,000 - Noel says it's not ideal, but not disastrous...

16 - Noel asks Betty for the 1p... and it is... 1p!!!

Noel says we don't want to see the high numbers revealed before the 8-box stage!!! Clever Noel...

He calls a break.

lots of people that stand in that position seem to have lots of reds/Big reds?

Elaine hardly had any blues
sara - ?
Mumtaz?
lucy?
Richard?
Jason did
Scott did
Pierre did
Nev did
Donna did etc

Noel says this is a brilliant game - the look of dedication from Betty when she revealed the 1p was fantastic.

18 - £10

Noel says she's on the eve of one of the best turnarounds.

The banker rings...

Noel says he loves it when the banker's worried... he's impressed by the way Rachel says she wanted the 1p and she got it... so he's not playing a psychological battle any more and he offers...

£15,000

I think it's time for Rachel to deal here. She'll hit either of the two biggies in the next round, and the offer will drop to ~£12,500 if £35,000 goes, £9,000 if £75,000 goes, £4,000 if both go.

I think I'd deal.

I would deal too

Kay says that she could take the low ones, but she could also take the high ones, and that she has to do what is right for her.

Rachel wonders if there's £75k in her box.

Paul says she's once again got an even board - 4 she can hit, 4 she can't. He says the probability suggests she will take out at least one red... and describes the banker's offer as a cracking one as it's picthed so perfectly.

She gets the audience to stand up if they'd deal - most people stand up.

Noel asks her the question, and she...

DEALS at £15,000

Thank goodness. I hope it's the right decision.

...Noel's already saying she went too soon.

SHUT UP NOEL.

The newplayer is interesting

Proveout round...

Noel says it hasn't been one of the most unlucky games we've ever had... the hits in the round one were horrible and not much better in round 2...

Noel talks about her possibly dealing too soon.

1 - £1,000 - the audience claps - Noel says why are you clapping - it's a disaster

He says we have to find the big numbers...

17 - £75,000 - that shut Noel up!! He says it was never there, never there... in Rachel's box 13.

3 - £750

Noel goes on about how she could have won significantly more than what she dealt at.

The banker rings...

Looks a bit like Amanda from Home and Away... how coincidental. Irene plays, Amanda joins.



I was close!

Jeff did it again

Jeff with a biggie, AGAIN! Mad.

So glad Rachel's beaten the banker

Ooh, and Kay makes it even sweeter.

Well done Rachel, Well Played glad you beat the banker

The offer would have been £8,500...

Noel says we're doing ok at the moment, but the banker will be laughing when £35k is in her box.

21 - 10p - Noel says it'd have been a great start

22 - £35,000!!! Take that Noel!!! (And the banker )

Noel says the next box is academic, but the next box could bring a good banker beating to end the week and start the next week.

Rachel says she'd have left box 6 to the end... so...

15 - £10,000

Noel says he thought she'd dealt too soon, but she's done the right deal at the right time.

And in Rachel's box is... £1!!!

The board is £1 vs £3,000

The banker rings...

And would have offered £750.

She says it's a good offer, but she wouldn't have taken it...

In box 13...

She has...

£1, or "A POOUUUUUUUUUND!!!!" to quote Noel!!!

Julian opens box 6 and proves it has £3,000.

wow, the perfect proveout!!!

Rachel you are a god!!!!

first contestant for a while that not chased big money and it worked

a lot of blues coming to the table
