In response to KP in the 2/7 Episode Summary, but enough of a topic to, IMO, start a new thread:

MDM games and games with ultra-strong boards at 15-case would make dealing at those points more likely than normal games. I would say that a six-figure 15-case offer on an ultra-strong board in a NORMAL game (where knocking out large amounts the next round with four to open are likely, and likely resulting in lower offers for at least 11-case and possibly throughout), where it's kind of difficult to justify dealing even for $200K+ amounts when there's still six or seven MDCs left in a MDM game, and keeping even three of them for a few more rounds might allow higher offers.

With that said, I can't see there ever being a second offer deal in the US Version, aired or unaired, because contestants do come to play the game, and it is VERY rare to see ANY deal before 6-case (the fifth offer), even when completely justified, odds-on, and correct to do so (Ex: A MDM game with 2 MDCs and six low amounts with an offer around $170K at 8-case is an easy deal for me, but the contestants on TV have always no-dealt it!). How many contestants in the history of US DOND have dealt before 6-case anyway?

I do think a game with a 15-case deal will likely go unaired (unfortunately) UNLESS: A) It turns out to be a big OPW (And, we know how rare OPWs are on US DOND!); or B) It's a disasterous proveout with near perfect rounds for the next couple of rounds, good boards and offers throughout, and a big amount in the contestant's case. If it's anything typical of an early deal proveout (A round or two too early and a TPW result, a big amount staying near the end resulting in a TBW, or big oard hits during the first proveout rounds resulting in lower proveout offers only for the last big amount to end up in the contestant's case, resulting in an OBW), aan episode with a 15-case deal (and possibly even an 11-case deal) could be left unaired.

Also, has a US DOND Episode been left unaired because of an early deal? (I know there has been one episode left unaired because of a bad first round and the producers thought the game was boring. Which I think is bad because I kind of enjoy games with bad opening rounds to see if they can turn around into something decent.)

The 1st game unaired is the game with 2 M$Cs but knocked out both at the first round and ended with $50,000. The contestant chose case #12.

The 2nd game unaired is Anabel Gamez won $99,000. The one cent club is in chosen case #11. Was the first offer have $100,000 or above or 2nd offer $161,000 or above or the 3rd offer of $200,000 or above?

Yes, It will happen with the sort of opening offers this game has risen to and no, it won't be aired. They're stoopid like that XD.

Um, Jimmy, this episode actually was aired. For some reason, it aired on TV stations across Canada last night (Feb. 14th). I'll provide a recap and an explanation later on.
