Round 5 - continued

19 - Georgia - £100

Banker time.

Jack points out the 1p is still there.

The Banker tells Jack to think like a money maker. He is one bad box away from changing everything.

BANKER'S OFFER

£15,080

Jack says that's Maldives money. Brian H says the Banker is feeling under pressure and believes Jack has the £100,000.

Jack says:

NO DEAL

Round 6

18 - Alex M - £10

20 - Richard - 1p

Banker time.

All red 3-box

£3,000
£25,000
£100,000

7 blues and 1 red in the last 3 rounds says the Banker. He tells Jack and his wife to think about his future, the family and home they want to have together.

BANKER'S OFFER

£33,400

Jack says he's guaranteed a red, and reminds everyone that he started with an all red opening round. Stephen points out the drop in the offer he will see if the next box is £100,000. Jack says he could live with going home with £3,000. Jack's wife says he's come this far, so he might as well stick to the end!

Jack says:

NO DEAL

Round 7

21 (Alex) or 22 (newbie Jackie) is the choice.

21 - Alex - £3,000

Banker time.

Jack has either £25,000 or £100,000 on the table.

The Banker never wants to see Jack again!

BANKER'S OFFER

£62,500

Jack says he knows what his wife is going to say, and he's already made the decision! Jack says he has birthday box, and the £25,000 would still allow him to put a deposit on a house.

Jack says:

NO DEAL

Jack says what will be, will be!

Is Jack the first jackpot winner?

Stephen opens box 3 to reveal £25,000

22 - newbie Jackie - £100,000

Same three box as Claire last week

I'm suprised no one said that he had the £25,000 yesterday, unless they did and it was edited out.

Dorie number 2 was made.

If that was the £3,000 instead of £25,000 he may have dealt instead.

Absolutely sensational end to the game considering the start!

I really thought today would be the day even more so than Dori for some reason

Another astonishing game

So soon after Dori’s attempt at £100,000, we had yet another player with the same 3 and 2 box as Claire with even stronger position and higher offer than Dori had.

I have to say, there’s deja vu with the old days. First two players to go for £250k Kirsty and Morris failed but still went home with a red just like Dori and Jack. Even curse of newbie and death box was brought back to life in this game.

Jack said box 3 was his birthday and believed in it and he made the decision it was gonna get him the money and with a 25 grand safety net, this wasn’t greed he had £25,000 yesterday in the same box and was in my view totally worth the chance.

Congratulations Jack, hope £25,000 does you proud

Never in a million years did I think we'd have 2 players take the final gamble for the 100k in just over 50 shows with THIS Banker's offer patterns.

Not quite as reckless as Dori's jackpot chasing of course as Jack didn't turn down an AMO and there was a 25k fallback, but still WOW.

I seem to be becoming a bit of a magnet for commentating on games where £25,000 is on the table - that's 4 in 3 weeks! I certainly didn't think we'd be getting that finish given the start, but I did think it was moving quite quickly, pointing to a significant end to the game.

Yeah I thought it was going a bit quickly to begin with

I really did think that was going to be it there. And it wouldn't have been reckless like Dori either! (Jack's final offer was less than £3,000 more than Dori's but with £20,000 better back-up for a comparison!)

Good on you Jack!

Will we ever see a game in this version of the show where the player's choices are entirely their own, and there's little to no involvement from the person who's come to watch them play? This, of course, wasn't that - but it was a great game of Deal or No Deal. Well played to both.

What an amazing game!

To turn around from an all-red opening round to a 25k/100k finish is absolutely phenomenal. And while I definitely wouldn't have risked it, even his final no deal wasn't reckless because it wasn't above the mean.

Loving the games we're seeing right now.
