The board's still good, but I'm a little leery about those bottom three. However, I think - I *think* - I can afford to go one more, then see where I go from here. Aaron, NO DEAL.

12, 20 and 22, please.

So far this has been a pretty much textbook play of A Tale of Two Boxes. If you can just miss those big two one more round, your 5-box offer will be truly astonishing...


12 -
£1,000!! WONDERFUL start!


20 -
£100,000! A reality check, but FAR from a disaster if you can miss the quarter-million in your final box...


22 -
£10,000!! IT'S FINE!! You made it!! :D :D

It's a DEAL for an incredible £76,000!! :D :D There's a chance we'll be sending that even higher with the Bonus Box and maybe even Box 23, but for now, let's deal with this proveout...


13 - £50,000! Literally would've been fine...

18 - £250,000!! You've well and truly spanked him!! :D :D :D

1p vs 10p vs £5,000 would've seen us plummeting to...

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£1,999.89



And after all of that, Box 2 contained £5,000 and Box 17 had 1p, leaving the 10p over in Box 5!

Now, a couple of bits of business to deal with here...

Firstly, here's what £76,000 looks like in Box 23:

    DOUBLE (£152,000)
    +£20,000 (£96,000)

    MONEY BACK (£76,000)
    HALF (£38,000)
    FLOOR (£15,200)

If you're gutsy and lucky enough, you could still leave here with just over £300k!! The risk is massive at these stakes, but the rewards speak for themselves.

Hunter, would you like to purchase Box 23 with your £76,000, Deal or No Deal?

A 60% chance of at least keeping the entire lot. I'm going home with something regardless... I don't want to do it, but DEAL.

Number 3, please.

One of our biggest optional gambles on Box 23, what an incredibly tense game to one of our biggest games of Two Boxes...

Hunter, you had £76,000...

... you now have...

MONEY BACK (£76,000)
FLOOR (£15,200)
HALF (£38,000)
DOUBLE (£152,000)
+£20,000 (£96,000)

NO!! I'm afraid you've lost half your money on that one :smt009 Thankfully there's a chance to bounce back now with the Bonus Box...

Let's take a look at that Bonus Box with £38,000:

    DOUBLE (£76,000)
    +50% (£57,000)
    +25% (£47,500)
    +10% (£41,800)
    MONEY BACK (£38,000)

Either way you're leaving us with a wonderful sum of money, but we'd love you to jump back up to 76! Which option would you like?

And of course, I shoot myself in the foot. Go figure. :P

Well, at least, I'm gonna get some, if not all, of it back. Number 3 again.

Doubling up on three, let's get that £38,000 back...


MONEY BACK (£38,000)
+25% (£47,500)
+50% (£57,000)
+10% (£41,800)
DOUBLE (£76,000)

Well how about half of it?? What an end to one of the most exciting games of Two Boxes we've ever had on Aaron's DoND, and you're now the sixth player in a row to leave with a Power 5 win! Enjoy your £57,000 and thank you for playing! :smt023

I'll take it! In hindsight, I probably should have listened to gut instinct and passed on Box 23, but £57,000 is a HUGE improvement over zero!

I think that's a case of the new-look 23 suckering someone in to be honest!

Can't argue with the front game though. I might take £64,000, but having that new-style BB absolutely put the No Deal firmly in my mind as well, given its ability to turn a modest game into a P5 win. I don't know which 5-box offer I take if I get there, but I know I take one purely out of relief the first marginal call didn't burn me. ;)

Another dramatic game anyway, making great use of the twist configuration if nothing else!
