What an amazing game! Congratulations Suzanne!

...I never thought I'd see an unspoiled £250k game, but just have!!

Laura's was obviously everywhere, and Alice's had people saying "Historic £250k win!" on Facebook. This time all I saw was a message (from former contestant Psychic Sarah) saying "Now that's how you play Deal or No Deal!" so watched it on 4OD, but I'd have never guessed it would turn out like THAT. Simply breathtaking, but even to the end I assumed it was just going to be a big £75k-ish win, then came the dream top two, then the highest offer ever, then the bloody swap!! Huge well done to Suzanne for making DOND history, and so amazing to finally watch a £250k game without knowing beforehand.

So, January 2007, March 2009, May 2011...see you all in July 2013?

The chance of a game having at least four Power Five amounts in the final five is about 1 in 306. It's happened 6 times so far.

Game 86: Brenda (9 Feb 2006)
Game 526: Daniel (28 August 2007)
Game 790: Colleen (1 July 2008)
Game 1132: Tracey (1 October 2009)
Game 1366: Kelly (1 July 2010)
Game 1614: Suzanne (13 May 2011)

Brenda and Colleen had already dealt, but the other four were still in live play.


Hear hear! I was unlucky enough to hear about the events in Suzanne's game through being in the audience for some of the forthcoming games (although, to be fair, it would have been weird if Noel hadn't have mentioned it). I'm so jealous of people who saw it with no idea of the outcome! However, there were definitely one or two comments here over the past couple of weeks that weren't quite as subtle as they intended to be. Sometimes it's really hard to keep secrets and say absolutely nothing, but people will thank you for it if you do.


Does that mean we should all stop watching now...?

Haven't watched DOND for some time (in fact discovered my last post on here was a year ago tomorrow!) but saw there had been a third £250k winner and had to watch the evidence and read the discussion of it - and while the previous two were "manufactured" by a joke offer and the Banker's Gamble, this looks like it was the time it was actually won through having the perfect game, the board just too strong to get away from, that was long overdue really! Congratulations to Suzanne, hopefully can catch the game in full when it's repeated.

Interesting to see "DVDfever" posting on here - I've known of your music chart commentaries since about 1997 I think!

The oft mentioned Digital Spy which is the site I commentate on got the result spoiled unfortunately by someone called SRW (sound familiar, anyone?)

They did put it in spoilers fair do's, but I think they knew some people wouldn't be able to resist looking anyway (including myself unfortunately )

But we took it in our stride after Suzanne won, and the majority were very pleased and it was genuinely nervewracking when the dream finish popped up which NONE of us saw coming even though most of us knew what was going to happen in terms of the result

And now god help whoever follows that game tomorrow and what will the banker do now I wonder

I mean he locked himself in his room and then cried down the phone when Laura won, then he got fired for most of the next game after Alice won....

The perfect game and a shoe in for the summer Hall of Fame if there is going to be one this year, well done Suzanne

She was just so cool about the whole thing which was quite extraordinary

I don't want to watch Deal anymore. I stopped watching and now I get that spoiled by that youtube upload from their official channel which I thought was nothing.

well done again Suzanne...totally awesome game-the best so far!...when in the wings she said something very prophetic 'if its meant for u it will not pass u'....she had the will,the confidence,the style,the bravado to pull it off...and she had that feeling...garry aka 'hevelius'.'DON'T STOP BELIEVING-HOLD ONTO THAT FEELING'.

Aww I missed this game. But then I havent been watching it much as the person I had heard would be the next big winner, was a bloke who ended up winning just 100 quid I think. Put me on a bit of a downer and havent watched it since. Still well done and there is always catch up.

havent got round to coming on here as i was busy

well done suzanne
for being number 3

just thinking they never been english

LOL quite true!

Wales, Wales and now Ireland...

Plus they've all been under 25.

Did someone win £250,000?

Get with the times Skyline

Aww man, and she did what I was aiming to do when I got to DOND.

Screw that petty minimum age requirement! I'm sure a 5-year old would really appreciate £50,000, why not a 17 year old?

As an epitaph to this game(getting nearer to 10 pages) and you want to see how it feels to have this same board after dealing.

The fun starts at 4minutes, but watch from the begining if you want to see the full train wreck. Absolutely delicious.

That was just such a classic example of the chaos theory effect on this show, not to mention the personality effect.

Divisive character gets a board that could go spectacularly either way, is horribly uncertain, Deals because she doesn't know what to do and her partner seemingly does, gets that proveout... cue the fireworks.

It was six times more likely at the deal point that she would secure an OPW with an entire round to spare than she was to leave the dream finish. Says a lot about how much this game can swing, doesn't it? And Suzanne's game just swung one way all day.

I stumbled across this on the forum last weekend, best game ever obviously. The 1st non set up QM win although the offer lept from 34% of the mean at 5 box to 68% of the mean at 4 box.

And then to 82.5% of the mean at 3-box, and 94.3% of the mean at 2-box...

I would have thought the offer HAD to shoot up in terms of the mean at 4-box given that £35k was guaranteed!

Basically the offers were a load of *beep* as long as there was any risk of an early Deal!!

£30k at 5-box was pants. Suzanne said in the interview that she might've gone if it was about £60k.
