What the title says.

For me, if the board was precarious, the earliest I'd use it at is 7-box.

Probably 6 box. If you use it at 7 box, the Banker can easily make a trap offer that will render the Offer Button useless.

Depends on the board but probably 6-box at the earliest.

Same here. I wonder if you could actually save it to 2-box, decline the offer he's given you and THEN press the button to make him give you a better offer?

Am I missing something?

I don't get it.

What is the point of this button? Seems an utterly pointless addition to the show to me.

It gives you an advantage over the Banker, as you have more freedom to decide when to leave the game. For example, I would've used it yesturday at 4 box to get a Power 5 level Banker Spanking that wouldn't have been possible in a nornal game.

After seeing the Offer Button in action, I'd definitely use it at 4 box or 3 box unless the Banker made a generous offer guarantee if I used it in Round 5. It's presence in the game seems to drive up the offers, but once you use it the Banker usually offers just below the Fair Deal like he normally does.

I dont understand why some have used it 1 box into a round, would only ever use it with 1 box left to choose as the banker knows 1 more box and the offer could rise significantly.

Either 6-box, 4-box or 3-box for me. It all depends on the circumstances.
