BANKER'S OFFER

£2,750

He said he didn't want you predicting the halving offer, but I don't think he's taking this game seriously while there's so many blues on the board!

£2,750, Deal or No Deal?

With only a 5% chance of the Banker's "prediction" coming true in this round, I will definitely say NO DEAL.

18, 16 and 14, please.

Here's hoping we can get some more money into this game. Just gotta keep the top two...

Box 18:

Box 16:

Box 14:

Board:

Playing fair, huh?

We'll see about that:

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£7,000

For Bonus Money, please.

BANKER'S OFFER

£7,000

Busted.
£10,000 is yours to keep!

** RING **

"Get out of here."

BANKER'S OFFER

£14,000

So much for his precious blues!

For £14,000, Deal or No Deal?

GOOD GRIEF!!!

Without the 10k guaranteed I'd be running for the hills here, but the 75% chance of dodging the two biggies is too tantalizing to ignore.

NO DEAL and let's see what Box 10 contains.

Box 10:

With another low blue going and all of the momentum being back in my favor at the moment, I will definitely use the BUTTON.

I'm assuming no prediction:

BANKER'S OFFER

£18,000

It's a completely different game now that you've got £10k in your pocket, but that's the button gone now...

Two to open if you play on, so for £18,000, Deal or No Deal?

Actually, I was going to use a prediiction here, but I only would've predicted 15k so not much was lost.

As tempted as I am to go on and cash in the prediction, I'm certainly not going against my 75% of the average = DEAL rule on a board this precarious, even with 10k guaranteed.

DEAL.

8 and 12 would've been next, followed by 2, 4, and 9. Also, if the Banker will let me predict one of the last two offers to make up for me not being able to predict this one, I'll gladly accept.

I would have thought you'd have predicted when you said you'd use the button!
Sorry about that, but thankfully not much lost.

In any case, it's a DONE DEAL for £18,000!
And I suppose that arrangement is doable, though you did admit you'd have lost it here.

Proveout Time:

Box 8: £100,000
Can't argue with THAT, what an escape!

Box 12: £60,000
WELL THEN!

Board:
2p
£20
£50
£250
£2,000

If you want to do an extra prediction for the jackpot... go ahead?

That's the ultimate definition of getting lucky.

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£401

BANKER'S OFFER WOULD'VE BEEN

£399

He went the other side, and now you've got another chance to win £100k!
You'll just have to put most of your winnings at risk to go for it.

It hardly even matters, but the rest of the proveout:

Box 2: 2p

Box 4: £20

Box 9: £2,000

Four of your five replaced values made it to 6-box, then they all went out in consecutive boxes!

BANKER'S OFFER WOULD'VE BEEN

£148

Your Box 6 had £250, while Box 19 had £50.

So now you've got THIS money menu:

£100,000 JACKPOT - £128,000
TRIPLE - £64,000
DOUBLE - £46,000
HALF - £19,000
QUARTER - £14,500
NOTHING - £10,000

You've got £10k guaranteed and a further £18k you can risk on Box 23 if you so desire. Deal or No Deal?

Part of me is hoping that Box 23 doesn't have +100k, as it would make some people think that this game was rigged.

Nonetheless, Box 23 now has too much potential upside to decline with 10k guaranteed regardless, so DEAL and Option 3

Option 3...



Thanks for playing.

Wow.
I think you just demonstrated the power some well-placed predictions can provide in your format!

Congrats on the win, it was a tense game and I feel you earned that.
The one thing I'd say is that since it's your format I deferred to you on letting you have the extra prediction - otherwise I'd have taken your honourable admission to indicate you shouldn't have had it. But it's your format so I'm not really fussed on that, congratulations~

This is what I love about my format. If your predictions fall in your favor they allow you to cheat death, which balances out the likely possibility of you failing at some point and the Banker possibly screwing your game by looking inside your box.

I kind of hate the idea of the banker box-peeking, so if it had happened to you I think I'd have just immediately given you a SWAP and let that do the mindgaming for me
