No Deal...

Next 3:

1.

16.

18.

Three key boxes. We could confirm in these three that the right decision would have been to Deal at £12,500... or we could be heading well past that with the next offer.

Here we go.

1 - £5,000. It's part of the nightmare round but it's still oddly OK.
16 - £1,000! Well there go the low red backups but the reds you really need are still in play...
18 - £35,000! Two consecutive all-red rounds! And yet £100,000 is still in the game... what was a stable position is suddenly as precarious as a ballerina in a hurricane.

The board:

1p
£1
£5
£100

£100,000

Banker's offer:

£7,500

This is one of the worst boards you can get. I've always said I'd be looking for at least £15k on 4 blues / £250k and about £10k on 4 blues / £100k. Can the banker guarantee what the next offer will be if I take out 3 blues?

He can only guarantee it will be more than Betty was offered on that finish, because he doesn't want another Betty.

Deallllll dooooo it

Haha I see. Ask me the question quickly.

Tom says Deal.

Jon says No Deal, but he always says that.

At £7,500 - Deal or No Deal?

No Deal.

I'm confused as to which boxes I have left now... I'll go for 12, 14 and 15 if I haven't had them already. Put it this way - I'll leave 13 until the end so take out the 3 numbers that aren't 13 and 22.

We have a gambler!

13's gone! And as it was 10p, good thing too...

12, 14, 15 and 19 are your final four on the wings.

Oh I see.... well go for 12, 14 & 15 then.

And so 12, 14 and 15 it is then.

12 - £1! That's the first one!
14 - £100,000! Game over, and who'd have thought that dealing at the third offer would be completely the right decision?
15 - 1p. Well you're not in that club! It's a £5/£100 finale...

Banker's offer:

£20

Oh bugger. Ask me the question.

I

TOLD

YOU

SO

Ouch!

Actually, tell the banker that if he makes it a more unique amount I'll be more inclined to deal.
