Hi all,

I was lucky enough to be a recent contestant, and would just like to say a big thankyou to this site, as it was a big help to me before I went on the show. I had one of the greatest experiences of my life while on the show, and I have made many new, life friends. It seems to me strange that a show can bring together 22 complete strangers, and make them so close, so wanting, and willing the days contestant to win big money, even though you may have only known each other for a few days. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank, the audience members who frequent these boards, as they were absolutely fantastic.

Cheers :D 8)

Lol I really dont mind. Having been lucky enough to be on the show, and have a great time. I dont mind at all people telling me how I should play my game etc. Hopefully one day they will get their chance too, and put what they preach into practice :D ;) I like Marks "OH DEAR" comments. Life would be boring if we were all the same, would it not. I would like to talk about deal a lot more, but as you will realise, im pretty tied up on that front at the moment. What I will say is, that, im a very shy man, and was astounded when I got picked for the show. DOND want IMHO a good mix of characters Loud, proud, quiet, shy, outgoing, nutters 8) ;). Its the only show I have ever applied for, and was extremely daunted by the amount of people there, and the interview process, etc. I would like to encourage people to apply for this opportunity of a life time. You wont regret it.......... In most cases ;)

Hi,

The biggest piece of advice I can offer you is to study odds/percentages at various stages of the game. During your time in the wings, I feel it also helps if you let the banker know that you are a good board reader by telling your fellow contestants who are playing at the time their odds of taking out various boxes at certain stages of the game. This may not have come across much in my time on the wings, but a lot of stuff gets edited out of the final version of the show that you see on tv. That fact is not so important IMHO. What is important is that you know the odds, and are prepared to take a calculated risk, to a certain point and that the banker knows that ;)

I hope that helps, and good luck :smt023
