Can't argue with either decision at 3-box or 2-box today.

Would I have turned down the mean at 2-box even with £25k guaranteed? Probably not but with that guarantee, I can see why someone would go for it.

I’m actually shocked that we’ve gotten two games within the span of a few days where players played all the way on a two box with the £100,000, especially with the Banker’s generosity as of late.
I feel like I’m also getting a bit more salty about the lack of a swap, if I’m honest, especially when the board game has it. It’s not a massive deal breaker, but in the case of both Dori and last night’s game, it feels really odd that the swap wouldn’t have been offered with the jackpot in the final two, as the original series made it 100% guaranteed so every player had a 50/50 shot of firing the confetti. Heck, it resulted in Suzanne winning the jackpot. And while it didn’t really do much to affect the amount of £250,000 winners, it felt comforting to me knowing that again, everyone had a 50/50 shot of winning it. Here, you’re only ever gonna win it if you have it in your box, making the overall odds way lower, and it doesn’t feel as fair to me personally.

But I mean what am I talking about? I’m getting so deep into the mechanics of a show about opening random boxes with random numbers in them. That aside I’m absolutely loving the energy we’ve been getting as of late. Hopefully after the winter break this’ll continue. Reiterating again, I love this show.
