Andre says there are still serious sums of money on the board, and he respects the £500.

Andre says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break...

He's a nice bloke but he's getting too bogged down in lucky icons and its not certainly not having a positive effect on his game. Its a random game. Am hoping he goes for it now, all the way to 15k.

We're back

Round 5

18 - Chris - 50p

16 - Paul - £50

20 - Clare - £750

Banker time

All blue round which is good and 1 blue and 4 reds... worth going on.

Noel says Andre is suddenly in a much better position.

Banker's offer:

£4,000

Andre says that's an amazing offer for the board. Noel says Andre is spiritual and a deep-thinker, and he wonders if his luck has changed now. Andre goes to a lady in the audience called Renee (Crystal's sister-in-law), and she says she thinks this is the moment for Andre. Stephen says Andre always gives personal advice from the wings, and tells Andre to try and advise himself.

Andre says

NO DEAL

Round 6

5 - Sam - £5,000

11 - Dave - £1,000

Andre doesn't know whether to chose 19 or 21 now, as he's been told 19 is significant. Stephen has box 21 and is from Belfast, and Andre says the Titanic was built in Belfast but of course it sank!

21 - Stephen - £10,000

Banker time with £500 and £15,000 remaining...

Damn, not the 2 box we wanted. Now let's hope he's brave enough.

"Oh wow" says Andre.

Andre says

DEAL

Andre has £500 in his box 22.

Box 19 with Andy contains the £15,000

Andre says that money will give him a break and he can treat himself to a few things.

Yipee a banker spanking. Well done Andre.

Worth going for the final gamble, but hey ho, dealing got him an OPW!

Very weird game today...all the big money gone by 8-box, yet still had plenty of reds to carry him to a stable 5-box! Interesting indeed!

Well, £6k is an excellent result after all those really bad rounds. Is that the lowest value Banker spanking?

Poor game to start the week, but it is an OPW...I can already this week not getting better

Not quite - there have been two £5k Banker spankings (Emma B on 20 May 2006, and Asma on 5 December 2007).




Pessimist!

Interesting bloke - I had been looking forward to his game.
He started off bright and confident but ended an emotional wreck.
Still a banker spanking for good smile money

Made the best of a bad job there alright, and entertaining with it. The best kind of bad game possible.
